What should I get? 03 Mach 1 - 01 Cobra -or- spring the extra money and go for the 03 cobra. What are the modding potentials of a mach 1? Is it superchargeable?

I would say either of the Cobra's, but if at all possible I would save for the 03

It has the same modding potential as the N/A Cobras. Yes it can be supercharged, but I'm pretty sure some of the kits render the Shaker inoperable.

Depends on what your desired use for the car is.
Drag racing - Mach 1
street/strip - 03
autocross - 01 ( I just prefer the way a NA motor applies power on an autocross course and it has IRS)

Now from a strictly looks standpoint Mach 1

you beat me to it. This will limit the amount of boost you can run safely.. but I'm sure it would be great for some nitrous
