The Mach 1 and the Lightning are dead even. Throw 200 bucks in a Lightning and its not even close. I am going to get mach 1 one day. Get both. Do you need a truck?

The L is better for modding. I've got both...I think the Mach is more comfortable for DD. (they're both autos though)

Both very fun cars, and I love the L speed wise better than the Mach just because of the blower whine :coolman:

Thats a hard one. Id say the Mach, but only if I had a cobra as a play toy. If I could only have one, itd be...ah crap, itd still be the mach.

Machs do come in a 5spd btw.... but both the mach and L can be had in an auto.

You have to ask yourself a few ?'s to help decide what you want.
-Do you need a truck to haul anything?
-How fast do you want to go? Stock for stock they are close. Mach 1 has that badass hood and its a mustang, but the L is a badass, cool looking, s/c truck. Plus you get the blower whine. regardless, both require premium fuel, and lots of it.
- How far do you plan to go on modding? The L has more potential for power, but a mach can be made very fast as well. Keep in mind ( with the Mach) that if you go supercharged (or turbo :banana: :burnout: ) you will be limited to <500 hp without upgrading the internals (they are not forged)

Have you considered a cobra? You can find a cobra for slighlty more than a Mach 1. Before I got my snake I was looking for a Mach and stumbled across a cobra that was in my price range. Ive never looked back since. :burnout: :thumbsup:

the L would be more of a sleeper car. And it is always fun trashing some gay import in a truck.
