I've just sold my 93 rx7 and Im looking to buy one of these 3 stangs..I found a 2002 (real) saleen True Blue with 67k miles I dont think its supercharged I dont see the saleen dash guages, also a 2001 Black Cobra with 46k (very clean), and a DSG Mach 1 (clean) with 52k. The only bad thing about the saleen is the miles im sure the saleen would turn more heads than the other two. The cobra is really clean,the black is sex and I love the interior. The thing I like about the mach is the dsg and that its the newest of the 3, (2004). Which of the 3 would u grab considering all their prices are relatively close together and why? heres the links: the mach doesnt have a link but its clean)

If your only keeping it for a yr, id get the cheapest one of the 3. If I absolutely had to pick, id go with the mach, only because its the only one i've driven of the 3, and I like dsg. If the cobra was dsg id go for that, and get some terminator bumpers, skirts, drop, and wheels.

its a pretty tough choice right there. I did not see a bumper number on the saleen? also the messed it up by putting a front tag on it. I would either choose the saleen or the mach. I cant really tell since you did not post the mach.

ive driven all 3, well I have a GT but its just like a saleen, really not much different besides the kit and suspension. I say the mach but if your only keeping it for a year, just get a normal GT, no reason in having a cobra or mach for only a year IMO

If the Saleen isn't supercharged, I personally wouldn't even consider it. DSG Mach 1 gets my vote.
