#7104 of 7496: 1997 Ford Mustang Cobra


The SN-95 generation Mustang was released for the 1994 model year, but it got a major upgrade in 1996 when Ford retired the aging 5.0 V8 and replaced it with a fire-breathing DOHC 4.6 liter modular V8 known internally as “the Romeo” engine. This dual overhead cam engine brought back serious 300+ horsepower performance back to the original Pony car for the first time since they stopped building the 429 Cobra Jet in 1971. Find this 1997 Ford Mustang Cobra offered for $8,500 in Westminster, CA via craigslist.

“Pristine”. I’m not sure this word means what they think it means.
2 things:
1. A one of 7,500 car doesn’t scream rare to me.
2. Having driven a few of these I can hear the interior picture and it sounds like rattling with intermittent parts falling to the floor. Most people put an obnoxious exhaust on these just to mask the sounds of Ford plastics fighting to the death.
