with rebates being the same you compare sticker prices to get the initial price difference =/- $6ktangerine said:most mach 1 I have seen are about 28 and all the cobra's I have seen is 32. that is only a 4,000 dollar difference. for that 4 grand you get built motor, blower, sixspeed, some tight ass seats, and some really nice gauges plus the body kit. you put a blower on a mach on then you have no idea when you will see a rod come through the side of the block.

MY Cobra said:how can a mach take a cobra from the light? Maybe if the cobra were to have a bad driver and the mach to have a great driver. But stock for stock i do not see how that could happen. maybe it can i am not sure. But i would like to see it. check out the rebates on the cars. i saw a 04 cobra roll off the lot for 28,900 the other day and got 6 grand trade in on a 97 v6 camaro with 200k ha ha
how many times do i have to post you can buy a new cobra for 28kttown said:Well it seems you need to get to the track more the MACH will always launch much better than a Cobra and the last half of the 1/8 will be gaining. IRS sucks in drag racing but great for round track racing.
BTW post a copy of that quote, I didn't fall of the turnipe truck yesterday, Ford doesn't give you JACK for a trade in...........Sorry a bunch of internet BS until you post the quote. As you can see a brought a few Mustang in the last 3 years. If that's ture they are either not selling any Cobras or you can get the Mach for 22k.

Exactly!!!, A cobra has "built internals" and the mach doesnt. The cobra will run high 10's-low 11's with a good exhaust, pulley change and 4:10-4:30 gearing and drag radials, a mach can, but will cost u BIG BUCKS to do so. The mach is great for what it is, but a cobra is the real snake that can smoke many cars out there with a few upgrades.MY Cobra said:you would be crazy to go with the mach 1. Listen to people who have a cobra and have driven a mach 1. People that "Hear what there friends say" are like people who do not want you to have a better car. Just my 2 cents. There are reasons a cobra is better. Instead of spending all that time getting stuff to look good on the out side. SVT spent time under the hood. Sure i like the hoods on the mach 1's and the seatsbut i would not trade that for the HAND BUILT engine i have under my hood. Insurance is going to be about the same. I have a Camaro LS1 and my cobra i have been to a ton of insurance places asking quotes. By far for somebody my age (20) i have found that geico treats me the best. As far as prices and service goes. i have 3 cars on my policy so i pay about 185 a month. for 2 V8 sports cars and a Chevy silverado V8. for my cobra alone it would be about 100 bucks a month. But i have more than one car on there so i get a discount...... so they tell me. go test drive both of them. Ask some people you know which would be more your style. Diffrent strokes for diffrent folks. Then call around and get insurance quotes.
Mikhail said:I think you need to get some actual insurance quotes for full coverage before you buy a new car...not sure why you would want to overextend yourself like this, but whatever.
I have a feeling that full insurance on a Cobra is going to be ultra expensive.
hey ttown, i dont think you understand i travelled the country as a consultant for dealerships for close to 3 years. Anybody in the world with a brain can get any cobra or mach1 for invoice if you know how to use a phone. The rebates are the only thing that differ throughout the country. so please dont pop off about what i know.ttown said:OK you have friends even though you don't work for FORD anymore. But you don't know JACK about prices in any area than yours do you.....H*** NO. The price of cars very depending on which part of the country you live it.....IT WON'T HAPPEN HERE UNLESS I GET MY FRIEND THAT WORKS AT THE FORD GLASS PLANT TO BUY IT FOR ME. If you can get it for that than the Mach is no more than a little over 22k..............that is unless they don't have any and won't discount them......Supply and demand.
add him to your list.Jackie Chan said:hey ttown, i dont think you understand i travelled the country as a consultant for dealerships for close to 3 years.

tangerine said:dude you are getting real pissy. The prices I have listed is no rebate what I have seen sticker price. With the proper driving of bothe cars the cobra will be faster in a straight line, out the hole, and in the curves. I know you have a mach 1 and maybe you believe in them. I have a 96 and I like them a lot but the 99+ are better than my car. I don't like to think it but they are. The best bang for the buck is the cobra. It was built to be a pure badass and that is what it is so get over it.
