Nineteen Ninety Three
I was bored and had the itch to get my camera out.
Basically just a quick shoot before it got dark. Photos are a bit dark... black cars own me. Car is a 1993 with 64,733 miles. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...bra/Cobra6.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...bra/Cobra9.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...bra/Cobra2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...bra/Cobra4.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...bra/Cobra8.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ra/Cobra9b.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ra/Cobra9a.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...bra/Cobra7.jpg |

Re: Nineteen Ninety Three
Yours looks like it's in awesome shape.
Friend of mine had one of those about 15 years ago, teal color though. He put it up for sale (to get a 95 civic si - lol) and it was stolen. It was cool, but in all honesty *and I don't mean any disrespect because I acknowledge how rare these are* it didn't really deserve the "Cobra" badge. Didn't have much of an edge over a 5.0 GT if I'm not mistaken... |
Re: Nineteen Ninety Three
did that model Cobra use 4x100 wheels? the regular 5.0 was 4x100 right?

Differences between the Cobra and the GT/LX: - Cylinder heads: Cobra came with GT-40 high flow cast iron heads. - Intake manifold: Cobra came with an intake manifold which was "unique" to the Cobra. Lower manifold is identical to the GT-40 manifold used by Ford racing. - Different camshafts - Larger injectors (24 lb/hr) - Larger MAF meter - Smaller crankshaft pulley - Smaller water pump pulley - Exhaust - tuned mufflers which were less restrictive - T5 transmission with custom 1st through 3rd gearing - Tokico shocks and struts valved specifically for the Cobra - Different taillights - Different bumpers - Etc, etc. - The Cobras were only offered in three colors: Red, teal, black - 5100 ever produced. 107 of which were the hard to obtain Cobra R. (You had to prove that you were going to use the car for its intended purpose before Ford would even sell it to you... a la Ferrari Enzo). - Mine is 4,059 of 4,993 made. |
Re: Nineteen Ninety Three
More on the R:
It featured larger brakes, Koni shocks and struts, an engine oil cooler, a power steering cooler, and a factory rear seat delete. Since the Cobra "R" was race oriented, options such as air conditioning and a stereo system were not offered. Each of the 107 produced were offered in Vibrant Red only. |
Re: Nineteen Ninety Three
No, i've never driven both in any way to compare performance. I read all that on wiki after I posted; just an opinion, please don't take offense. I owned a 86. My friend had a 89 and that 93 cobra. I got a 95 del sol and started spanking him at autocrosses which is what prompted him to get the si. What really sucks is that it was stolen and most likely chopped in Detroit.
How many black ones did they make? (presuming that's the original paint) |
Re: Nineteen Ninety Three
I had a Vibrant Red 94 GT.....would trade all the Hondas I've ever owned just to get that one car back. F*** high gas prices when your a 19yr old kid with a V8!!

Of those, only 448 came with black cloth. So technically, 1 of 448 ever made. :thumbup::thumbup: Wish mine had a sunroof. :o |

I'd get myself in trouble if I drove a RWD car with decent power everyday though.

Re: Nineteen Ninety Three

Re: Nineteen Ninety Three
There was one around my town. Teal. Loved it till one day it was stolen and stripped! Still love fox mustangs. My friends buy'em and trade'em like crazy (foxs' not cobras lol). Beautiful car though!

Re: Nineteen Ninety Three
beautiful car. Thanks for sharing car and the information on corbas. Shots 5 and 6 are my favorite

Re: Nineteen Ninety Three
Damn that's really nice. Those cars have a timeless look to them. There is a low mileage silver notchback on Ebay right now that I've been drooling over. These fox bodies were all the rage when I was in high school.
