I remember seeing 'em on TV way way back in the day and I realized how serious they were when it had no A/C nor radio.  Heh, I just saw it has crank windows too!

This 1995 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra R combines elegant styling, safety, luxury...
...Luxury?  Not quite.

I googled them and it looks like that year only came in red and white, that sound right?

My son in law actually got to drive one, said while not the fastest feeling car he'd driven, it wasn't a slouch by any means...

When he was working as a mechanic, a relative of another employee came in to the station with one that he bought(he worked for a finance co and had been repossessed)... For what ever reason he wanted the spark plug wires replaced and the 5.0 set the dealer sent wouldn't fit... They had to get the VIN for the dealer, that's when he realized it was a "R"... Hadn't bothered to look inside till then...

I see the listing is gone, but $26K is cheap for a nice one...

No..the '95 R was white only...the '00 R was Red only.

Luxury? pffft. Luxury on those are wipers and power brakes.
They're a race car with license plate brackets.
I remember reading in MM&FF in 2000 when the Cobra R was released...some dealers were getting 85K for 'em...:flame:

no ive just payed attention when people talked about them. in 93 the had to make 7 more because a ford dealer in kansas or some where like that ordered 10 and didnt get any so they sued ford for them and ford ended up having to make 7 more.

It wasn't 307 in '93, it was 107. I talked to the owner of one at the Mustang 40th.
