RedLiner · 01-30-2007, 06:38 PM

MyLittlePony · 01-30-2007, 06:38 PM

Don't feel bad...there is some guy somewhere who will get your Mach and love it too.

A vette though? At least it's a Z06. How's she run?

birdman941 · 01-30-2007, 06:38 PM

At least it's AMERICAN.

dave281sc · 01-30-2007, 06:53 PM

Traitor!

Just kidding!

Very nice.

Maybe it's just me, but if I had 2 sports cars, what is the sense of having 2 similar Mustangs. After all, variety is the spice of life.

98StangRidah · 01-30-2007, 07:12 PM

Not a bad trade.

got03mach1 · 01-30-2007, 07:12 PM

sweet man how much did you trade your mach for and how much was the z06? Im thinking about trading for a Z also...but i dont want to pay more money monthly though.

IowaMach · 01-30-2007, 07:27 PM

Looks like a nice ride! How many miles are on it?

cmb570 · 01-30-2007, 07:31 PM

WOW, both rides are very nice

Roy · 01-30-2007, 07:33 PM

Nice cars!

Mach 1 · 01-30-2007, 08:00 PM

Whats up with the extension cord? Do you have to plug it in to recharge it?
J/K. Good luck with the new ride.

G · 01-30-2007, 08:12 PM

Enjoy, at least it's red. :LAUGH:

dantheratman · 01-30-2007, 08:16 PM

looks pretty sweet

blown03Mach1 · 01-30-2007, 08:22 PM

No shame on trading a Mach in on a Z06 IMHO. Like others have said, at least it is an American muscle car.

b3warnick · 01-30-2007, 08:50 PM

All I know is there is some rich mother f'ers in this forum

JK

Nice rides though...I'm partial to the Blue Oval but the Cheby ain't bad.

Probably because its a year older???

blown03Mach1 · 01-31-2007, 07:23 AM

I was speaking to a former Mach owner at a local car show about a year ago and he told me when he traded his 03 Mach I on an 04 Z06, his insurance went down as well! He asked his company why is that, and they told him it had to do with the number of accident payouts on a Mach compared to the Vette. I would guess the Vette has an older demographic and in GENERAL terms, the older driver is a safer driver.
