Terminator owner just bought a Mach 1
Hey guys,
I just bought a Comp Orange Mach 1. I've always liked this color. The car is 100% stock right now. I'm probably going to do a few things to it, RAI, Exhaust, MGW shifter, etc. Nothing crazy. That's what I have my Cobra for I'm already thinking about swapping for an IRS setup though lol. I'll post up some pictures as soon as I get her cleaned up and detailed tomorrow. -Aaron |

Re: Terminator owner just bought a Mach 1
Pretty sharp pair of cars. The Mach 1 may take a back seat in performance, but I doubt that it will take a back seat in the looks department. Enjoy. How could you not!!!

For example: My Cobra has had the window tint peeling for a few months now and instead of retinting it, I've put that money (plus a little more) under the hood. Whereas the Mach, I will make this thing look like new before I even install any bolt-ons! I actually swapped to a solid axle in my cobra and then swapped back to IRS. It's probably the only part of my cobra that I've sacrificed performance for comfort/handling. I'd really like to have IRS in the Mach also. |

Re: Terminator owner just bought a Mach 1
Congrats and welcome. Can already tell by what you said about not compairing the two that we now have another great member! FINALLY, lol needs to be more people like you that own both and respect both for what they are.
I was gonna suggest swapping the Mach SRA into ur Cobra if you want to be able to really tear **** apart, but looks like you already experimented with it and made a decision, awesome. Welcome, post some pics and learn some new interesting facts about the Machs too!:THUMBSUP:

Re: Terminator owner just bought a Mach 1
Congrats man I also owned a Cobra(comp orange) before buying a DSG Mach1. They are way different and love each in their own way. I will be swapping out the rear ends as soon as I get off this deployment as well. -Shane

My Cobra ran it's best time with the SRA. Full spool, 33 spline gun drilled mosers, arp studs, girdled, etc... But honestly, it's still a street car and I missed the IRS. Cool, what branch of the military are you in? Where are you deployed at? |

Re: Terminator owner just bought a Mach 1
Yup. It's been a great DD so far. It's pretty clean and I couldn't pass up the deal. The Cobra, I have yet to take the motor apart, again. I'm not pointing any figures until I take it apart. Although I have a good idea, I'm trying to keep the drama to a minimum. There's been quite a few rumors and funny stories going around about it though.

Re: Terminator owner just bought a Mach 1
I wished I had a Cobra to go with my mach. Good luck with both of your cars.
