I have test driven a GT , quite a few actually, ..(was purchasing a loaded convertible)...... Stock for stock, the GT does not pull like the MACH 1, not even close!
Im sorry to hear that yiou had a slush box in your mach......that was a BIG difference in that car, about 15 ponies on the dyno to be exact
good luck with your GT, becareful driving, thats all that matters

Stang066 said:wow! the pics look great, I love that color. What a rich blue that is. I cant wait for mine. enjoy your ride. Your tint is that 20 percent on the sides?and 35 in the back.
MSP said:Very Nice Tom281!! Nice history as well.. That Mach1 had to hurt to let go... Look at it! you kept it perfect man! Mind me asking how much it sold for roughly? Or did you trade it in?
The Color on your 05GT is really well selected..
Welcome to the other side of the Rainbow Tom281.. See how green the grass is around here? I thought it was a lie, but it really is green!
tom281 said:Thanks for the kind words. I've been watching this site and in particular this S197 forum for awhile, just in anticipation of getting the car and talking to new people about it that have something in common. FYI: I was asking $23500 for the Mach, but ended up trading it in for $22000. I got my '06 at sticker with the window tint thrown in, with the following options:
-premium model (charcoal leather)
-shaker 500
-Interior Upgrade
-5 speed manual
-side airbags
-bullets
These options are EXACTLY what I wanted! Had I ordered one, the only thing I would have changed is the spoiler. I would have ordered it without it, because I plan on having either the Roush or Cervini spoiler installed asap. Got to get that done, because only then can I get my stripes! Now gotta decide........silver stripes or white? Maybe even black......... what do you think??
Stang066 said:Actually Tom i was debating about the stripes too. I think white would look sharp. I kind of like silver on the blue also. how wide would you go for the stripes? I dont want them to look to over done. They should compliment the car not take it over . What do you think?
DarkFireGT said:I think they're both awesome cars, both have their strong points over the other. I wouldn't say either would be an upgrade from the other. But everyone's got their own opinion, they're entitled to it, even if it is wrong. I will say even though I love the sound of our '05 GT, you can't beat the 4V sound, though with BBR cams on the 3v, that's a different story.
