Default GT vs Mach1 vs Cobra

Hey guys. I'm probably going to buymyself a03 stang for my upcoming birthday, and I've been looking around at GT's. But I kinda want something with a little more bite. I like the power of the Cobras, but I don't think I want to pay twice the price of a GT for one. So I'm looking in the middle. Could anyone tell me about the 03 Mach1's and how they compare to the GT's? Thanks for the help.

machs have the best bang for the buck. you get the cobra engine with shaker which is way better than any GT

I had a 02 v6 stang before my Mach 1 and was looking to step up too. I went over to a carmax because they were loaded with mustangs and noticed a silver GT. Well I took it for a spin, wasn't nearly what I was expecting and was rather a disappointment. That's when I learned about the Mach 1's so I did some research and then sure enough one came into carmax so went back, they gave me the keys to start her up, and my god it was love at first site. Seeing the whole front end shake when you turn it on and just the pure noise of anger. WHen I punched a GT it still felt weak comparing to my V6. But this Mach is a ****ing bullet compared to that V6.

Plus: 260<305...<390(?) But both the Mach's and the Cobras are supposidly "underrated" when it comes to the dyno testings.

That is all

I had an 02 GT. It sucked (to me)! After gears, CAI, and, Full exhaust, it was pretty quick. Now I have a 2004 Mach. It'only has a cat-backandis quickerthan my modified GT by a long shot. Not to mention it handles 10 times better than a GT.Go with a Mach if you don't want to spend the $$ on a Cobra.
