Which car would you rather have?

Would you rather have your own Mach1 @ 3,000miles or this Saleen Mustang?

Depends on what Saleens you are talking about. Some are basically just a body kit but others have much much more!!!!

Yeah, be careful there......same sentiment I get with my Roush from alot of folks until they spend 1/2 hr with me as I go over all the areas Roush improved over factory.

Thats a S/C 2V which will drive a whole hell of alot different than our 4V's do. A Roots/Screw blower on the 2V is fun, but I think at the end of the day I prefer the N/A 4V we have in the Mach's. For pure sound if nothing else!

Thats a nice example there, or so it appears, pretty rare too.......keep the Mach 1!

Re: Which car would you rather have?

Well I love my Mach1, but That car has 375HP and looks sweet, Many members here are putting in Cobra engines. To me it would be alot easier to buy a Cobra and make it look like a Mach1. Members put on Cobra bumpers, Remove spoilers, install Cobra powerplant, Woulndt be easier to buy a Cobra and Get the mach1 hood , shaker, and stripes?
I think I would honestly trade for this car thats listed on Ebay, Its like 20 minutes away . Im gonna drive down this weekend with my Mach and see how it looks and drives.

Re: Which car would you rather have?

The mach1 with same mileage is the better buy. The DOHC engine gives it an edge.

Re: Which car would you rather have?

Tough call. But this morning I'd take the Saleen.

A girl at work has one the same year. But it's white. She said HP was near 400 but only ran high 13's. The interior was really sweet in the Saleen.

Re: Which car would you rather have?

as much as i hate to say it, i'd take the saleen over the mach. but, that doesn't mean that i don't love my mach. i'm just starting to get into road racing/autox and the saleen would be the better car of the two to use for that
