When it comes to modern muscle cars, a handful of vehicles come to
mind as truly special. When Ford debuted its fourth-generation
Mustang in 1994, it all but made the Fox-body third-gen an instant
collectible. The 1993 model Mustang represented the end of an era,
and while being the last of one chapter in Ford's illustrious
history, this 1993 Ford Mustang Cobra SVT is simultaneously the
first product of the Blue Oval's then-new Special Vehicle Team,
which would go on to make some of the most drool-worthy muscle cars
in the history of the autoverse.
With an unbelievable 532 actual miles on its odometer, this is
essentially a brand-new 33-year-old car. Barely driven off the
showroom floor, this Cobra sports its original black paint and body
panels. Exclusive to the 1993 model year, just 4,993 of these
first-year Mustang Cobras were produced, with only 1,079 finished
in black with a grey leather interior, making this car highly
desirable for enthusiasts and collectors alike.
Inside, we find the original Opal Grey leather interior, with the
floormats still protected by plastic. The four-spoke power-assisted
steering wheel sits just ahead of a five-pod analog gauge cluster
featuring a 7,000-rpm tachometer and 140-mph speedometer. The
original AM/FM/CD head unit is in place, still sporting its factory
plastic barcode cover, along with the factory HVAC controls and a
barely touched shift knob, making this Mustang feel as though it
just emerged from a three-decade-old time capsule. Sporting modern
amenities such as a power driver's seat, power locks, windows, and
mirrors, and complemented by air conditioning and cruise control,
this car is comfy enough to drive every day.
Under the hood, this Cobra sports a naturally aspirated 5.0-liter
High-Output V-8 engine. With its Cobra-specific GT-40 style intake
manifold, heads, and cam, this potent small block made an
impressive 235 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque when it
rolled off the assembly line. That power is routed through its
original Borg-Warner T5 five-speed manual transmission, beefed up
from the factory to handle the Cobra's increased power, before it
heads out to the 3.08-geared 8.8-inch rear end.
