All I have to say is FREE POST! [Whoo Whooooo!]


this had to be a joke, if its not GET A COBRA. Same mods are available for both vehicles but the cobra comes with better trany, Supercharged etc etc. If you have a budget and the Cobra is out of your price range well then the Mach 1 is a great car and you can make it fast!

Good LUCK

I have owned both...hense the screenname and current sig! I loved the mach but COBRA ftmfw! once u go termi you never look back...here are the specs to look at

03-04 cobra...

built forged cast iron shortblock!
6 speed transmission
aluminum flywheel
factory supercharger
cant beat the looks of the cobra as far as exterior and interior!

only downfall is the IRS (for drag race but rides WAY better) but there are tons of people that would trade u the SRA for the IRS! so no big deal!

03-04 mach 1

factory SRA with 3.55s
still has the good heads
aluminum block
looks pretty clean! mine i continued the black stripe across the roof and trunk, s281 wing and saleen wheels! DSG best color!

ummmmmmmm for those people who say just add a blower, NO! i blew up 3 stock motors with my vortech! ran hard made close to 450rw and hooked hard on stock suspension! ran mid 11s! but couldnt afford the 10k plus to build the motor to hold boost plus the 6k i spent on the blower and supporting mods!

choice is clear! TERMINATOR

I would buy a Cobra. Mach1's are great, but you will probably end up wanting more power. By the time you upgrade the rods,pistons and transmission to handle the power that a stock Cobra can handle the price difference will be gone. That's not even counting the blower to make that power.
