You'll get the hang of shifting gears.....it's not that hard.
Some folks like to down shift when going into a lower gear. I put mine in neutral and let her coast and if the light turns green before I stop, I put it in a gear to match the speed.
Good luck and if you get it, before to post some pictures.

dont just take into consideration the fact that its a 4 valve, i'd also look at which fits more comfortably. ive heard alot of people say the shifter on the SN97's fit awkwardly. also, the 08 is a newer car, looks better (IMO), and can hang right with the Machs. But if youre gonna go with a Terminator Cobra (03-04) i'd say go for it. those things are SICK!!!

Dude drive what makes you happy!!! The Mach is a great car and will be very collectible in the future. The GT will be a better car preformance wise and will cost more. If your doing because others don't like you car then you might wanna buy a prius. There will alway be someone who hates you car and if you own a prius everyone will hate it....

I went down to the place today and got to test drive it. I was still sitting on the lot when the guy said I could rev it, I did and set off every lincoln and mercury car alarm around me. There are no mods on it, just a new air intake from K&N. The guy that owned it before me traded it in for a Saleen that they had sitting on the lot. Clean bill of health and doesnt seem to have the ticker problem that I was told about. I may be purchasing it either tomorrow or the next day depending on when my next off day is. Now all I have to do is clean the bird **** off the side of it. Its been sitting on the lot for a while and nobody has even wanted to look at it before I came along.
