Ford’s fourth-generation Mustang announced a new era in domestic performance cars. Carrying over the best of its predecessor’s underpinnings, the internally designated ‘SN95’ arrived with all-new styling for 1994. Available in Coupe and Convertible configuration, base trims received uprated V6 engines over the outgoing inline-four, while top Special Vehicle Team (SVT) Cobra variants came exclusively equipped with a 240 horsepower small-block V8 and manual transmission. Available Cassette and CD audio, keyless entry, and a digital dash clock completed of-the-era cabin faire.
.
Chosen as the 1994 Indianapolis 500 pace car, a limited run of 1,000 Cobra convertibles received elevated the first-year redesign among collectors and enthusiasts alike. Serialized with a numbered plaque affixed ahead of the gearshift, SVT Cobra Convertible Pace Cars added signature colors and ‘Indy’ insignia seat embroidery. A sub-6 seconds 0-60 time and lithe handling cemented its sports car credentials. Capable, comfortable, and crowd-pleasing, the SVT Cobra Convertible Pace Car remains a perennial fan favorite.
