Take a look at this. It's a special C-code V8 built especially for the Cobra R. This engine is a 5.8L engine that pumps out 300 horsepower. It's a marine block with aluminum pistons, forged steel rods, GT-40 heads and special intake manifolds. This engine has a couple of modifications to the original configuration.
All 1995 Cobra Rs have this Saddle colored cloth interior. To save weight other components were deleted at the factory - air conditioning, radio, and the rear seat!
The top part of the dash and doors are black. Notice the blanking panel where the radio should be.
A close-up of the gauges in this 1995 Cobra R. Nothing out of the ordinary here - except the low gas tank. It would be hard to keep gas in the tank of this car.
Yes, the rear seat is deleted at the factory. Who races with backseat passengers anyway?
The owner moved the battery to the trunk for better weight distribution. This is a Moroso battery box.
Here is the data plate for this 1995 Cobra R.
This is the upper left corner of this 1995 Cobra R's window sticker. Just the bare minimum here.
Here's the right side of the window sticker. The "R" option added $13,699 to the bottom line. It lists the options contained in the Cobra R standard package: 5.7L engine, 5-speed manual transmission, 17x9 inch aluminum wheels, P255/45ZR-17 tires, heavy duty adjustable front and rear struts and shocks, upgraded front and rear springs, upgraded front stabilizer bar, front strut tower brace, heavy duty aluminum radiator, auxiliary engine oil cooler, heavy duty power steering cooler, 20 gallon fuel cell, high capacity *(*&@#$, and manual seats.
Here is the Ford Certificate of Authenticity for this Cobra R.
NEW POST This is a Laser Red 1993 Mustang GTS coupe. A GTS was basically a stripped down GT. They had many of the Base V6 characteristics, but with the GT engine and badging. They came without rear decklid spoilers, fog lamps, and front air dams. They did have the GT emblems and Mustang GT embossed into the rear bumper. Their interiors were cloth and contained all other Base V6 items but with the GT instrumentation. The GTS model name was only available in 1995, but you could get it as an option through 1998 as the 248A package.
NEW POST Laser Red 1993 Mustang GTS coupe, left front view. They came standard with 5-spoke wheels, this one has the Bullitt wheels. Ford built 6370 Mustang GTSs in 1995. 4848 of them where manual tranmission and 1522 were automatics.
NEW POST The dual exhaust and spoiler delete are characteristics of the 1996 Mustang GTS.
NEW POST Like regular GTs, this GTS has the 5.0L V8 engine.
NEW POST The interior was that of a Base V6 with the exception of the instruments. Cloth seats are the tip off that this is a GTS. Otherwise they came standard with the manual windows, manual door locks, driver's side adjustable seat, and standard non-lighted visor mirrors. Like the Base V6 models, you could get the power windows/door lock package and the better radio, cruise control, and lighted visor mirrors.
