COBRA R RETURNS.
A limited Cobra R combines a 5.4L V8 with a focused chassis and aero package. Ordinary GT and V6 models remain separate configurations.
SN95 brought rounded, heritage-inspired styling, followed by the sharper New Edge update in 1999. Modular V8 power and a new generation of SVT Cobras changed the Mustang performance conversation.
IDENTIFY THE CONFIGURATION.
A model year is the starting point. Confirm the body style, engine, transmission, axle, market, and factory packages before comparing specifications or ordering parts. A restored or modified Mustang may no longer match its original build.

OWNERSHIP NOTES.
Check convertible operation, cooling-system history, intake-manifold condition where applicable, and the quality of modifications. Cobra independent rear suspension requires different inspection and service references from a live-axle GT.
The imported 2016 workshop manual is not a substitute for this model year’s service information. Use the correct factory publication.
