Terminator vs Mach 1.
I need you opinions before I purchase my dream car ...Considering that I am not a street racer and do not intend to go to the track, is the Terminator really worth it to me compare to a Mach 1 as a fun daily driver during summer time??? I love the Cobra but that shaker on the Mach is pretty sexy too...What do you guys/gals think??

Personally I'd go with the Mach 1. The reason being there's only two reasons I'd buy a Terminator which are the T56 and IRS, and both of those could easily be swapped into the Mach 1.
Ultimately the choice is yours, and since you're just looking for a good DD for the summer. The Mach 1 would best suit your needs, especially if you like the shaker or were looking for an automatic.
Damn, I need to get back into sales.

Get the car that you really want! You don't want to have any regrets when you do purchase it...btw the Terminator is more than just the T56 and IRS, it's a built motor with forged internals and s/c'd of course, just my 2cents...a little biased too...lol

I know the Terminator is more than just a T56 and IRS. But what I meant was those are the only selling points for me, as I have no need for that much power. Think about it, I'm a fairly young guy (25) with a very heavy right foot... I think a Cobra would get me into a load of trouble, in a very big hurry. Personally, I'd rather get a decent 2.3 liter as a DD till I find my truck and do what I want to it. Then I'd start tearing into the Mustang.

No problem. I was just throwing the automatic out there.
Yeah I know you were just exposing my options but to me automatic does not match with a Mustang but that is just me!!

It probably won't feel like much... But then again, there's another question. Which fits your budget more?
btw. There are 4 stick shift Mach 1's in Quebec, ranging in price from $21,900-$29,995

As for Cobras. There are 6, 4 of which are Verts. And they range from $23,999-$28,995
