Smile Crown Vic Owner from FL. Hopefully a Mach 1 owner by all.

Hey guys, my name is Alex and I own a 2000 Crown Vic and a 1994 Trans Am. Reason why I decided to join this forum is because I've decided I'm going to sell my T/A and buy an '03 or '04 Mach 1 in the fall. My dream car however, is a 2004 Cobra in Screaming Yellow with a Kenne Bell Mammoth supercharger, Bassani exhaust, drop springs, and other supporting mods. But I have started saving up for that Mach 1 and think that it should hold me over until I get a Cobra sometime down the road. I love the interior in the Mach 1 and already have some mods planned out. First off, of course, is the black Saleens from my Vic, some drop springs, Bassani exhaust with Borla Stingers, 2000 Cobra front bumper cover, and maybe a few bolt on's to bring a few more ponies out to play. My favorite colors for the Mach 1 are (in this order) Azure Blue, Dark Shadow Red, Screaming Yellow, and Torch Red. I know what a PITA white and black are to keep clean, and I don't care for orange too much. Well, here are the pics of my cars.

My Vic in stock form back in 2008. Grew tired of the police look after a while and decided to bring out what others didn't see possible.





Here it is now.











And my T/A which will soon be up for sale.

Welcome to the board!

Since you want a Terminator (04 Cobra), I say get one of those instead. I am not sure how much a Mach I costs, but if my thoughts are right, a Termi can't be that much more.

Well, here in South FL. A relatively low mile Mach 1 can be found for about $11k-$14k, while a low mile '03-'04 Cobra would cost about $18k-$24k (a Mustang GT cost about $7k-$9k). Unfortunately I won't be able to afford the Cobra until sometime next year and I really can't wait that long, so my plan is to buy the Mach 1 in the fall and keep saving up, then once I get enough money, I'll sell it and buy the Cobra. That's if I haven't fallen in love with the Mach 1 by then. And thanks for the warm welcome guys.

Here's a nice 2004 Mach 1 for sale in Screaming Yellow, with supposedly 24,500 miles. $11,500,

And here's a 2003 in Sonic Blue, with 67,500 miles. $10,990 and has an interesting paint job on the hood.

Did a photoshop of what an Azure Blue Mach 1 would look like with my Saleens and drop springs, and I'm not gonna lie. I love it.
