Wooten Ford of Cocoa, Florida, as well as factory colors,

1994 was the first year for the fourth-generation Ford Mustang.
These "SN-95" cars were based on an upgraded version of the Fox
Body platform from the previous generation. The 5.0 V8 engine was
also kept but was upgraded for the Cobra by using unique intake
manifolds, cams, fuel injectors, and heads. These changes upped
power from 215 to 240 horsepower.
All these changes helped sales, with Ford selling over 123,000
Mustangs in 1994. It won Motor Trend's Car of the Year honors and
was picked to pace the 78th Indianapolis 500. 1,000 Cobra
Convertibles were produced to celebrate the honor, all of them
built with a Rio Red exterior with Saddle Brown leather interior.
This was the third time the Ford Mustang had paced the Indy 500,
once with the original Mustang in 1964 and the first year for the
Fox Body in 1979.
