I didn't read this thread... so here is a blind reply...

MACH 1!!!

THERE IS A MINT 03 Mach 1 (torch red) at repo depo right now, 60k on the odometer, looks all stock. Their "market value" is at 24k.. this can probably be picked up for 18k since there can't be more then that owing on the loan.

I posted this over at the gtamc the other day:

They have the market value set at $24k... can probably be picked up for a LOT less then that..... (there can't be more then 18k left on that loan.. and thats if it was bought with no down payment)....

Hopefully the poor sucker who had it repo'd isn't on here....


My buddy saw it there, said it looked like it was in mint condition...

I love my Mach, I really do, But If i had the Choice all over again i would go with the Cobra in a heart Beat, A factory Blower car that handles really well and goes like a bat out of hell.

When i first bought my Mach i ran a 13.733@101 (Bone Stock)
I've seen Cobra around here Running around13.1 or so (stock)

Might not seem like a huge difference (and driver could be a factor) but throw a blower pully, JLT intake, Exhuast and a tune on the Cobra and your going 12.3@114(117).
Same Type Mods (Underdrive pullies, C&L Intake, Exhuast and a tune) your looking around 13.3 with a good driver.

At the End of the day it's a personal Choice, When owning a Mustang Speed is always a factor, So the Factory Blower car is really the way to go.

If you going to buy the car jsut for the Shaker, save your money buy a GT and get the Shaker Kit from CDC.

Good luck

All Depends on Where you are as well, Elevation plays a huge role in how fast your car is. I was just using Edmonton Times as an example.

And as for the Cobra Blower idea, i actually bought one last year and started collecting parts. But with Hiddin Fee's on Shipping and sourcing parts it became too expensive.

Just add a drag radial and lots of practice, and you can run 11.71 @ 118.50
