I have been looking for an 03 Cobra, and I stumbled across this mach 1 for 10,500. It has 100k and I would like to know is this a reasonable price for the car. I plan on going to test drive this car. Sorry there is no motor pics.

hate the gold but it looks clean enough. I'd get the finance price under 1050 though, unless your buying it outright.

Yea i'm goin to trade my 98 in on it if I get it, and i've financed a loan before so that's no problem. But I'm not really a fan of the gold either

the Gold lettering can come over if its not painted. It's like taking off a pinstripe. And putting some smoked headlights or cobra lights would clean it up alot.

I think 10.5k is a good price for it. I'd kill the gold and throw some HID's in those 'somewhat' hideous headlights. Other than that...GO FOR IT!

10k for a 100k+ mile car? i dunno, id rethink that one. low mileage machs are starting to sell for about $15k now.

Id go with OEM housings and aftermarket bulbs maybe. Definitely nix the gold and either go without the Mach stripes or use OEM ones. The car is black so i wouldn't bother. I wouldn't worry about the 100K miles if you really look the car over well, and spend some time with it. A well maintained 100K mile car should not be an issue. Id still walk out of there paying no more than 9000-9500 though, but i can negotiate well.

That's 50% price increase. I cant argue against looking for a clean, lower mile Mach but this one is worth looking at. If you look, and are willing to travel you can get a lower mile mach 1 for like 13K ish. I know of an AB with 50K for about 10.5-11K that has one of those owners that makes the difference.

BTW, if your looking for an cobra (03-04) then hold out for one of those, though your going to pay much more for it.

I bought my 97GT for 7k with 102k miles back in 2004...so, 10k for a 100k mach1 isn't too bad...

My car has lasted me 5+ years...check it out and this mach should last u a long time :thumbsup:

my buddy got an 04 mach with a full roush kit on it. like it was sent away to roush and completely redone except for the engine bay. it had 14k miles on it. and he paid 15,500. so i would have to say that may be a bit much for that car. just my .02

yeah, but with how much the price on machs and cobras sunk over the past year and a half, to two years, they're not worth paying that much for right now. Right now, you can get a low mileage MODDED 03/04 cobra for low 20's, hell plenty of times I see them listed for around 20 flat. The car market is terrible right now for sellers, there's no reason why you should be paying that much for that car right now.

I think I'd hold out for the termi... the mach's are nice, but not much up from the gt's imo.
