Thumbs up

Ok...im 20...have very little to no expierence in high power cars....and about to go to the airforce within a year I'm planning on...and need a cool car on base

A.) 03-04 Mach 1
B.) 03-04 Cobra

which do you think would be best for my situation? Also how would you suggest to get used to high powered cars if you've never owned/driven one.

It doesn't take much to get used to a high powered car... Just mash the throttle and hang on... Just be easy on the throttle in rain/snow.

Either of those cars would be a great choice...

If you are planning on a lot of modding i would go with the Cobra..much easyer to make faster...


For got to mention one thing...the Mach is probaly less money to buy and insure.

I dont plan to drag race it at all really...maybe a few times at the local strip to see what times are and such....but im definently not the street racing type. I plan to do a few exhaust changes and a few suspension mods and thats about it really. I'd love a cobra....I just want to make sure I can handle something like that first is all!

Trust me you can handle it.

The cobra drives just like any other car...it just gets up to speed faster...

the clutch is quite stiff so it can get tiresome in stop and go traffic.

I have never driven a Mach 1 so im not sure if the clutch on a Mach is like a GT or a Cobra... maybe someone else can shed some light.
