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.

I'm 25 with an o3 terminator w/ close to 500rwhp, just hav to hav alitlle self control...lol.to O.P get a Cobra, i wish i had gotten one sooner..

I still think me and a Cobra would be a bad combo. I mean my friends wanted to put me on CWD because of my supposed "speed addiction"... Even though I have never street raced...... Except for that one time when I was 18, that dumb ass never tried passing on a corner again. lol

Where were we? Oh ya, I'd still personally go for the Mach 1... But I'd love a Yellow '01 Cobra, damn that would piss off my ex finance.

I'll keep checking...I am just wandering about the feeling the car would give me as a DD...I test drove a Mach but never had a chance to try a Cobra yet...

You can get a nice mach for about $15-$18k us money and the terminators are anywheres from $18k-$25k. It all depends what you want. They are both totally awesome cars. I've always wanted an AZURE BLUE MACH. If your going to modify..the terminator is the car of choice because you already have a stout package (built motor, 6 speed, fuel system, etc) but you can also build up a MACH, it just cost alot more at the end of it all. Check out the US ebay. The market is great for buying right now.
For $27k, I would sell you my fully built saleen with a Kenne Bell, 6 speed, and black in color.

Yeah I've checked the cars in the states but the thing is that the banks up here won't finance a car that is not registered in Canada and I cannot pay cash for it so I'll have to buy one here in Canada...yours would've been nice though...Thanks anyways!!:wink:

That is also the kind of answer I was looking for...I've been in a Mach but never in a Termi so I can't tell the difference but the more I think about it and the more I read the advices, chances are I will go with a Terminator since I've been waiting for so long and I don't like to live with regrets!!

I just have to wait and see what kind of deal I will stumble on this spring...There is quite a few out there but the is no way I am gonna pay 30K$ for a summer car. There is more and more of them under that price now(23-28K$)...Maybe due to the economy going down...I'm pretty sure there is gonna be one waiting for me!!:)

I've never ridden in either car but I'd say go for the Terminator, there has to be a noticeable difference between 390hp and 320hp (or whatever the Mach 1 has). Go to youtube and look'em up, that sold me on wanting one.
