[Mr 5 0]

The 1993 SVT Cobra had special performance equipment including a GT-40 equipped 5.0, a handling-oriented suspension and manual-only T-5 transmission as well as some unique visual items such as unique taillights, spoiler, wheel design and distinctive “Cobra” badging.

The 1993 SVT Cobra was only available in hatchback form in three colors: Teal, Red and Black. The GT-40 equipped 5.0 came with a different intake, heads, cam and other assorted items which was good for 235 horsepower - 30 more than the 205 horsepower-rated 1993 GT 5.0L.

The 1993 SVT Cobra can be identified by the eighth digit in the VIN - engine code “D” (235 hp 5.0L) vs. the 1993 GT’s engine code “E” (205 hp 5.0L). The 1993 SVT Cobra was not available for sale in Canada (Ford of Canada did not participate in the SVT sales program until 1996).
