05+ GT or 2004 Mach 1??

whitestang04 · March 5th, 2010, 02:11 PM

I am trying to decide whether i should wait and get a newer gt or get this 2004 mach 1 that I am looking at.
The mach 1 seems like a good deal because it only has 18,000 miles on it and for the price that it is i could never get a newer GT with 18,000 miles for that price.
What are your guys opinions?

M.P. Cobra Fan · March 5th, 2010, 02:34 PM

I prefer the body style of the Mach personally. I would go that route.

ForestGRN_Ghost · March 5th, 2010, 02:36 PM

mach all the way.

BikerSk8rKid · March 5th, 2010, 02:56 PM

+1 for the Mach 1
Not to fan of the 05+ models, but they're kind of growing on me.

Dolbs4082 · March 5th, 2010, 03:04 PM

anything but a v6 haha jp. the mach would be awsome. prolly faster and better looking than a new model haha

whitestang04 · March 5th, 2010, 08:40 PM

Thanks for the input guys! How does the machs horsepower compare to that of a newer GT?

96gtstang&V6 · March 5th, 2010, 08:42 PM

mach 1 all the way!

im not too sure on the hp comparison but im sure machs can take 05+ gt models pretty easily with basic bolt ons, correct me if im wrong.

ForestGRN_Ghost · March 5th, 2010, 08:43 PM

youll be on the level when it comes to power
but in the upper part of the rpm it will breathe better.

Yeah functional hoods are the best. And the Mach has a functional hood SCOOP which is even cooler. (

)

IMO i like the s197 body style...but mach has roughly 15 more hp? and is lighter and DOHC

either way.

mach

BlackedOut04GT · March 6th, 2010, 12:21 AM

I walked an 06 GT with my 04 GT. Buddy has an 04 Mach 1 an it sounds soo sweet. IMO, wait until the new 5.0 GT comes out, if you got the money for it. I think the new 5.0 GT is going to have 412hp.

ForestGRN_Ghost · March 6th, 2010, 12:23 AM

if you have the money. then yes....

2011 for sure.

whitestang04 · March 6th, 2010, 12:11 PM

yeah...
thats not gonna happen lol

BikerSk8rKid · March 6th, 2010, 02:43 PM

How much money do you have to spend?
I'd try for 03-04 Cobra.

whitestang04 · March 6th, 2010, 03:15 PM

yeah...as much as those are going for today..doubt i could afford one of those either lol..
idk..im tryin to find something under 16 or 17 grand..
the mach im lookin at is only $13800 thats why i like it so much..haha
but im not sure cause i love the looks of the newer body style GTs

ForestGRN_Ghost · March 6th, 2010, 03:22 PM

i still say mach.

I hate the newer styles, if I have the option to get something just as fast, with the older style then I'll do it in a heart beat. The Cobra I almost had was 26k miles at 532 RWHP and not a single problem wrong with it. Was going to get it for just under 17k
I haven't seen one over that much around here. But they're Verts. :/

I say Mach engine wise, but there's alot you can do to the 05+ models. It's gonna be your car and your money tho. Not ours
