what is the difference between a GT and a MACH 1

jdaniel

Different engine all together. They have a DOHC and different crank. Im not sure what type of tranny it has. And it comes with all kinds of up grades like Brembo Brakes and a 3.73 rearend. A lot of difference between the two.

Its all in the driving baby I drove both ..a 00Gt and a 02 Mach1. If it wasnt for ONE bad spot on my credit, (damn Bank) my name here would be 02Mach1_Blk..
HUGE Difference..You have to drive it to feel it.

You mean your name would be 03mach1_Blk, there was no 02 Mach 1 or I would have bought one.
