Ok so I have an 07 V6 AUTOMATIC which I love to death. However I was considering on purchasing an 08 GT manual later this year until I saw something that caught my eye....an 03 red and black on black rims....mach 1. Its priced at 18k and I intend on trading in my 07 V6 for it. I figured, why get a GT when I can get a mach 1 and spit on all those GT's like they spit on me when I had a v6? So Im still gonna chill with all my sixxer buddies and still show all the sixxers love on the streets that I meet however when I see one of those little pussy GT's Im gonna laugh and give them the finger.

get it dude u wont regret, i used to love my sixerbut itwas just too slow to compete with most cars out there[:@]
comming from a traitor! no j/p i love the goats go for it but if u can find the termintor(03-04 cobra) i would get that instead then the gts guys will bow to u =) i had an 04 cobra got it for an amazing price 26k with 19k miles sold it for 28k insurnce was way to high for me nj sucks for that kind of stuff lol but deff look for a mach 1 if not try and get a cobra=) best of luck
Thanks thats why Im hoping for. Honestly my sixxer that i got now is my first car ever and my first mustang so i have no idea what a terminator is [&:]yes im a noob. Oh and the mach 1 is like 18 and has 39k miles on it but is in good condition. The only problem is.....its manual...and....i dont know....how to do manual......[&:][&:][>:][]im so screwed. I mean ive seen it done and I tried a manual GT 500 (went flying out of the garage followed by a cloud of smoke). I mean its simple, push clutch all the way down, turn ignition, push clutch all the way down, put it in gear, slowly let off the clutch while you push on the gas. 0-20 first gear 20-35 second gear 35-45 third gear 45 -60 fourth gear 60-up fifth gear. Let off gas pedal, clutch down, change gear, let off clutch, push gas. I mean i got all that down its just that it seems a bit more difficult in actually doing it. Like all things i suppose. Can anyone give me a quick lesson on how to shift?

There ya go,[8D]if you do get a manual, just give it time, you'll learn, practice makes perfect
my father showed me how to drive a stick when i was 16 getting my license so i could drive the FIAT he was giving me(i'm 23 now,beeng driving sticks ever since)..it will only take a few hours worth of driving a stick and you'll have it down well enough to get by on the road..i started in an emtpy parking lot just in case,then moved onto small side streets with stop signs on hills(gotta learn to catch first pretty quick in those situations as to not drift backwards into someone)then off on to the main roads...after a few hours i was able to get myself back home from his house and to school the next day just fine.
the "hardest" part is getting out of netural and into first,once your in first and rolling..its a cake walk
And what happens if your Mach 1 gets beat by a S197 GT with bolt ons? What next? Sounds like your opinion on S197 GT owners has been ruined by a few narrow minded people.
I'd get the 08GT just because its a new car. But if you don't want to spend that much money and want some faster, that Mach 1 seems like a good deal and is reasonably low on miles. Take a close look at that car to make sure it hasn't had too much abuse.
i love the sn97 machs, i wouldnt get it just to get back at the s197 gt's tho. thats just tasteless. its a great looking car, imo it has a very unimpressive interior but is still a nice car. just dont be a dick when u get it.

Dude, no ? get the mach! It's a 4v not a 3v like the s197gt so it reacts better to mods than them. Also, I will probably be cheaper on insurance since it's older but I'm not sure. It sounds like a beast stock if you've ever heard it in person. Definitly get it. Learning sticks not hard, just practice in a parking lot with a good teacher for a 1/2 hr and you'll be fine. Don't be regretful, just hang with the guys packing 6 cylinders over the 8's, and don't let them hang out with you unless they can take you in a race.
