***My new ride***
Friday, March 27, 2009 8:36 AM
Well I was looking for a regular foxbody stang to drive around and all I saw was junk. So I sold my 99 contour and Just picked up a 1993 Cobra svt last night!! Its one of my dream cars. I have always been looking for a 93 cobra and thank God I was able to pick one up. Below are the pictures. The seller wanted the cloth seats and he had a leather set so he swaped them out for me. I'll post a pic of the leathe interior later on. I need to take a group picture with my '03 cobra! Yes, my favorite color is RED!!!!

Stats:
84,345 original miles
Short throw shifter
Flowmaster exhaust
lowered
MM chamber adjusters
BBK headers
Leather interior (Seller wanted the cloth seats so he swaped them out)
2003 Cobra Brakes front and back
5-lug front and back from SN-95

OMG I want it and it is red too! That looks mint!
That and the 1993 Cobra R is my favorite pre-2005 Mustang. If it was me, I would keep the cloth seats, totally dig that 80's design interior.

Congratulations.

1993

The 1993 Mustang Cobra was the first vehicle produced by Ford's newly minted Special Vehicle Team. This team, SVT, was created to produce a special car for the "special" people that buy mustangs. The model was based on the Third-generation Ford Mustang, built on the Fox platform. This model featured the availability of red, black, or teal exterior hues with a choice of either black or smoke interior colors in cloth or optional leather. The car was powered by a Windsor 5.0 L engine rated at 235 hp (175 kW) and 280 ft�lbf (380 N�m) torque. A limited run of 107 Cobra R units was produced.
Year Model Production
1993 Base Cobra 4,993
R 107
Total 5,100

[edit] 1993 Cobra R

The 1993 Cobra R was a stripped down version of the Mustang Cobra that was built with the racer in mind. To save weight this competition model was stripped of all but its bare essentials including air conditioning, rear carpeting and the radio system with its speakers and wiring. To further save weight they eliminated all sound dampening insulation, carpet padding, and body seam sealer. Also since a race car rarely needs rear seats they were removed with the seat belts, and seat brackets to further remove weight which also made this the only factory production Fox Body Mustang ever to come as a two seater. To further increase performance the Cobra R was equipped with larger brakes, stiffer coil springs, Koni shocks, larger anti roll bars, and a strut tower brace. To reduce operating temperatures and increase durability at race speeds the "R" was also equipped with a larger capacity radiator and oil cooler. The only exterior difference between the R model and the standard Cobra were it's special five lug wheels. These were actually the same wheels to be used on the newly styled upcoming 1994 mustang GT. To later become known as "Tribars" Ford decided to paint them glossy black and to also polish the center caps and wheel lips to keep them distinguished from the 94-95 wheels. Available in only Vibrant Red, only 107 1993 Cobra R models were ever produced making it one of the rarest, fastest, and most collectible Fox Body Mustangs of all time.
