Well there's one thing that you shouldn't do and that's post in all caps, but to answer your question, I don't really know. Nobody can really help you with your opinions so just do whatever you want, if you like mustangs then get one, but if you don't keep modding, simple as that.

 

if i had the money for the mach 1 i would have it

 

If you got the money for the muzzy buy it if not mod the focus

 

But you already poured money into your focus so why not keep modding it and make it very very nice? Could make it much faster then the mach 1 if you want to spend that much money!

 

Think of it this way: if you don't care about gas, buy the Mach 1, and you do care about gas keep the foci.
I would keep the foci and continue to mod it and use it for a daily driven car. Save some money on the side and put a down payment on the Mach 1.

 

or do what all focus owners want......drop a v8 in your focus!

 

Mach 1 are nice car but they have the ugliest factory wheels I have seen in ages.

 

Mach 1 is a highly overrateted mustang. Turbo your focus and use the rest of the money for gas.

 

Ugly rims? I like the retro look of 'em. Overrated? How so? Basically it's the poormans Cobra with a hard to read speedometer and shaker hood, minus the supercharger. At least it gives F-bodies a run for their money...

 

thats it all it is an apprance package witch total makes a machery out of the orginal mach 1.

All these reto renames make me sick. The 05 mustang is the best redo i have ever seen and its the only one i like. but the new mach 1's, Gto's and all those other throw back cars look like ass. The manufater's are just slaped a name onto onto a grand-am.

 

I think the mach 1's look good. Trade your focus in on a black one.

That's not true at all. The Mach1 has an upgraded powertrain that puts out over 300 hp. It is essentially a 4.6L 4V that was the basis for the 4.6L 3V engine in the 2005 Mustang GTs. I say go for it. The driving dynamics won;'t be as nice as a 2005 GT, but the more than 300 hp will be. It will be a collector's items someday for the limitted run and functional hood scoop.

 

I would just get the nem 05 mustang and mod it out. Or keep yours and cotinue buying stuff for it.

 

I vote keep upgrading the focus but I got kind of an issue with the new mustang anyway, I think it looks aweful (although the eleanor body kit looks awesome).

 

A year ago today I went down to the Ford dealer and traded in my 01' Focus for a 2003 Mach 1. I had the Mustang for 3 weeks. I tracked it, auto-x, and striped it within that time. In less than 2,000 miles I threw a rod in the motor, went through a set of tires and warped the rotors. If you drive anything how I did I would say keep the Focus. It is more durable. Cause of who I know down at the dealer I was able to "return" the car to avoid a lemon law case. I got back my Focus and I am thrilled that I still have the Focus. It handles and brakes way better. Down a little on power but the power isn't all that impressive anyway on the Mach 1 to me anyway... I would say keep the Focus and beat the crap of a $6K car instead of a $25K car. Plus you will probably have just as much fun in the Focus. Maybe not as much as putting down rubber through first and second but you know. Oh, and the Focus is not exactly what I would call a status car but is it worth $19K more dollars to have a Mustang?!?
