I've been spending some time behind the wheel of the 97 and 93 in the last few days.Just driving one then hoping right into the other.
I like the front end of the 93 alot better
93 is or at least feels alot faster and nimble than the 97
After having the 93 for a few months the color...
I was just wondering what you guys and gals like or dis like and the gen 1 and gen 2s. The reason i'm asking is that i have a 93 80.000 miles mark 8 and have a chance to buy a 97 with 68,000 miles. the 93 is green with tan interior not really my fav combo. The 97 is an lsc black on black. If i...
I agree with you guys.I'm glad they didn't hold their value or I wouldn't be able to owe a Mark either.But like it's been posted the Mark VIII wsn't a volume made car.Its a special model that Ford Made 100k of them a year.
Lower valume,higher preformance cars like the Cobra,SVO...
Why in the world didn't the Mark viii's Hold their value? I know the air ride can be a pain but darn. For a car that sold new in the high 30's it's crazy that you can buy a really nice one for about 3 grand and a super nice for just a little over 5.
I'm not really complaining cause I just...
What color is the Mach you guys are talking about? I could use an azure blue right front fender.Wife kind of got a bit too close to a guard rail in our 03 Mach1 ;p Jace
Okay one more question. Is there any alignment problems after swapping in the springs for the air bags? Can lets just say Sears just put it up on the rack and line it up okay? Just want all the info before I take the plunge. Jace
Abe, Your Mark looks great with that drop! Thanks for posting pics of your car. I think thet seal the the deal for the 1 1/2 drop spring for me when I* order a kit. Jace

Kbob, Thanks for the heads up on the handle.After I get a new handle I'll give it a shot of installing it.I'm pretty mech, inclined so we'll just have to wait and see if I can go 10 rounds with it. lol .If I get knocked out in the second round I'll take it down the street to the shop.
Oh...
Thanks for the welcome Chris. I've been looking for one on and off for years.When I ran across a nice Mark8 I didn't have the cash.When I had cash all I found was trash. lol I guess the stars were inline for me today.
Green paint and tan interior isn't my first choice of colors by a long...
I checked out the link and think thats what I'm looking for.I like the look of the 1-1/2 drop. Is there any issues with bottoming out or tire clearance issues with stock sized tires with the drop kit?
Thanks for the help so far! Keep the ideas comming. Jace
It's dark out now. I'll try to get a pic up tomarrow after work.Although I wont get any sleep tonight. I've wanted a mark8 for years. Oh happy day!! Shes in the dtiveway getting to know her new family. A few 92 f150 Nite editions,2000 v6 stang,2003 mach1. Might even have to dust of the ole 70...
Seen an ad in a local classafied paper for a 93 mark Viii.Seemed to be one of those to good to be trure kind of deals. Long story short for my $1,300 bucks I got an 93 MarkViii green ext,tan leather,sunroof,key (number) pad.Seems to be loaded with just 80k miles.
It has a broken drivers side...
