to much money ? you can get a Cobra for the price of a Mach1 pending miles and condtions of the cars...along with mods..... also I just saw a 2000 GT for 8,000 and with the extra money you would use getting a Mach1 you could turbo it and it'll be a lot more 350rwhp which the Mach1 isn't even close to

Kind of a preference thing. A nice Mach with some miles could be bought for around $17,000. The same mileage Terminator would probably run you $23 - $24,000. The GT would be substantially less. What are your plans for the car? You should determine what you want to do with it and then decide what your wallet can handle. Good luck with your decision.

no, a low mileage convertible cobra would run 23-25k

coupe you shouldnt pay more than 18-22k

the market is just jacked right now because kids know they can buy them and swap pullies - thinking they are gettin more for their money. Buy a6k-10k GT or an even cheaper v6 if your plan is to modd the hell out of it. because if thats the case your just wasting money on the cobra upgrade, when it will be cheaper and better to mod the cheaper chasis. I know some people think that the cobra is some how a different car.... the only difference is what is put into it. but people who actually know what they are talkin about and have been around the mustang game for a while know that if you have big modding plans,the smart buyer gets into the base car as cheap as possible, leaving more money for parts you actually want/need

but if your going to a little pulley swap, and not much else and just enjoy a damn nice car, then the cobra is the way to - if you get one in the 20k range. just depends on your goals
