1993 Ford Mustang Cobra

The 1993 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra represents the pinnacle of Fox-body performance and the first chapter in Ford’s Special Vehicle Team legacy. Produced only for a single model year, the Cobra was hand-assembled at Ford’s Dearborn Assembly Plant and introduced a new level of refinement, handling, and performance to the Mustang lineup.

This particular example, finished in the rare Teal Metallic Clearcoat (paint code RD) over Opal Gray interior, is one of the most desirable color combinations offered in 1993. Teal was exclusive to the Cobra and remains a favorite among collectors for its unmistakable period-correct look and limited production numbers. Power comes from the legendary 5.0-liter high-output V8, rated at 235 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque, paired with a five-speed manual transmission. Unlike the standard GT of the era, the Cobra received GT-40 cylinder heads, a revised intake manifold, larger fuel injectors, and a unique ECU calibration to enhance power delivery and throttle response.

This car has been meticulously maintained and remains in remarkably original condition, showing just 53,000 miles. It retains its factory components, original body panels, and correct Cobra-specific details, including its unique front fascia, rear spoiler, rear bumper with “COBRA” script, and the distinct 17-inch directional wheels. The paint presents beautifully, with the deep teal finish displaying the metallic depth that helped make this model iconic. The Opal Gray interior remains exceptionally clean, showing minimal wear and maintaining the correct trim, upholstery, and factory equipment.

What truly sets this example apart is its incredibly documented history. The car comes with extensive service records, receipts, and documentation verifying its consistent care throughout its life. Every aspect of this SVT Cobra reflects the attention to detail and pride of ownership that only a carefully preserved vehicle can demonstrate.

As the final evolution of the Fox-body platform and the debut performance model from Ford’s newly formed SVT division, the 1993 Cobra holds a special place in Mustang history. With its combination of rarity, performance pedigree, and originality, this Teal Metallic Cobra is a highly collectible piece of Ford performance heritage—an exceptional example for the discerning enthusiast seeking a true survivor from one of the most celebrated eras in American muscle car history.
