I can't believe I'm saying this

^^^ Yup Amen to that. I give my car plenty of looks. I feel like the king of the world in it, I think its that beautiful. I know that people arent hailing me, but they might as well be.
 
I do like Fox Mustangs but they're part of the standard 80s styling era. These offer soooo much more.
 
I cant believe thats not even TITLED though. 16 freakin miles. There was a GNX on ebay like a month ago, same deal I think like 9 miles maybe (was under 10 for sure), went for 100K :crazy:
1987 20th Anniversary Cougar, 302 "5.0" GT-40 heads (F3ZE '93 Cobra) and TMoss Ported H.O. intake, H.O. camshaft
2.5" Duals, no cats, Flowmaster 40s, Richmond 3.73s w/ Trac-Lok, maxed out Baumann shift kit, 3000 RPM Dirty Dog non-lock TC
Aside from the Mustang crinkle headers, still looks like it's only 150 HP...
1988 Black XR7 Trick Flow top end, Tremec 3550
1988 Black XR7 Procharger P600B intercooled, Edelbrock Performer non-RPM heads, GT40 intake AOD, 13 PSI @5000 RPM. 93 octane

Looks like original sticker price was in the 25K neighborhood.


That's close, a fully equipped '93 Cobra would sticker at about $22k.

  • Base price - $18,505
  • Preferred Equip. Package 250A - $1,455
  • Power driver seat - $183
  • Leather - $523
  • Clearcoat paint - $91
  • Engine heater - $20
  • Flip-up sunroof - about $400
  • CD player - about $200
  • Destination - $725


For me, the '93 Cobra is one of the very few Fox bodied Mustangs the I would consider owning.

I'd love to own it, and it would have WAY more then double digit miles in no time.
 
Those cars were ment to be driven, not stored in a plastic bag.
It's a shame!

  I would say that you will get more looks in a Cobra too, but after I painted the T-bird, I noticed ALOT of people staring as I drove by, even got quite a few thumbs ups.  LOL.



I've always been a fan of the sleeper. People in Dodge Chargers tend to not like it when a 20 year old T-bird kicks their ass ;)

One day when I'm rich, I'm going to buy a car like that (doesn't matter what it is, as long as it's under 100 miles and stored in plastic) and do the largest burnout the world has ever seen in it just to piss the previous owner off as I drove away...

The one in Carlisle was a '94 Cobra Indy Pace car with 6 miles on it.
Here's the info.


I'm almost positive there was a fox one too in the past 3 years.  Like Eric said, today they aint all that fast.  Gimme a '92 Notch with a 347 and a 3 link suspension.  Dark blue, please.

Hello

  If im correct the warranty has not started yet.  I bought a cube van years ago that was had full warranty because it wasnt registered for the first 2  years.  So I had an 8 year on a 6 year warranty.  The van sat on the owners yard for 2 years then registered it.  But thats in Canada.  Not sure what it is in the states.

I despise '93 Cobras more than any other Fox Mustang, mainly because the people who have them think they are something.  They got a few more hp, rear disk brakes (tiny ones) and a softer suspension.....*yawn*..it's another Fox Mustang....

Let's not forget about the all-important factory 17s. Ok, it not all that great now, but back then... shag. lol.

I like all the Cobras. I wish they hadn't ditched it for Shelby name on the S197 chassis. And I wouldn't object to owning a Termie.

AMEN to that.  I just wanna add that if it wasnt for my infatuation with the 5.0 stang.  I never would have bought my cougar.
