 Mustang S
|
The 1981 Mustang S was an economy sedan model which offered all the fuel savings options with a less than base Mustang price of $5,897 where the base 2 door regular sedan was $6,363. We think this means the model came with the 88hp 2.3L 4-cylinder engine. It probably was based on the base level 1980 Mustang sedan which was priced very similarly. If anyone has any information, let us know.

The 1981 Ghia included many luxury items including black remote control side mirrors, body side pin striping, turbine style wheels, low back reclining seats with adjustable head rests and deluxe seat belts with tension eliminators, luxury level cut-pile carpet, and extra convenience lighting (map, dome, glove box, ash tray, engine).

 Mustang Cobra

The 1981 Mustang Cobra continued to be the only sports model for the Mustang with blacked out side mirrors and interior trim accents, rear facing hood scoop, 1979 Mustang pace car front end and rear spoiler, TRX wheels, added to the standard 2.3L twin turbo 4-cylinder engine connected to sport tuned exhaust. Upgrades included the 4.2L V8 engine. A Cobra package taping delete option existed to save $65 but the special, large Cobra hood decal was an additional $95 option. Although the Cobra came only in a hatchback, a sports package was also available for the hatchback or coupe which included engine upgrades, blacked out treatment, sport wheels, rear window louvers on the hatchback and convertible looking carriage roof for the coupe. See our 1981 Cobra Data Explorer for more information.
