It still has plastic seat covers, plastic on the carpets, all of its original documents, and a Monroney on the window. Speaking of Monroney, the original sticker price of this Fox body Cobra was $21,223. Now, [Marshall Goldman]() in Cleveland, Ohio is asking $145,900 for it, almost seven times as much as it originally sold for. The Fox body Mustang SVT Cobra was an interesting car because in 1993, the regular Mustang GT 5.0 was detuned to 205 horsepower, down from its 225 hp. However, for the SVT Cobra, [Ford]() bumped its power back up to 235 horses. So while it was more powerful than the standard Mustang, it didn't have much on the late-'80s Mustang GT 5.0s. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() However, Ford's SVT team did upgrade the Cobra's suspension and brakes, to make it handle better than the Mustang GT. It had four-wheel discs, upgraded shocks, new springs that were actually slightly softer than the GT's, 17-inch wheels with lower-profile Goodyear ZR45 tires, beefier anti-roll bars, and stiffer bushings. All of that made the Cobra sharper and more fun than the GT. This specific Cobra has leather seats, a four-way power driver's seat, and even air conditioning. It also hasn't been driven since it left the dealer. Instead, it sat in storage for 31 years—seemingly in a humidity-controlled, air-tight vault—and it shows, as it still looks like it just rolled off the assembly line. The only thing that isn't factory original is the battery. Although, I wonder how those tires have held up over three decades of sitting, even in a low-humidity environment. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() If you're a Fox body aficionado, there might not be a more desirable car than this one. It isn't a Mustang SVT Cobra R, which is the hottest of all Cobras, but it's certainly one of the most well-preserved Foxes still in existence. Its asking price is also higher than that of the record-breaking [Cobra R that sold at auction in 2019](). The only question that remains is: will its next owner finally peel off the plastic and send it? *Got tips?

His love of cars began when he was just a kid playing Gran Turismo 3, grinding out enough race wins with a Mazda Miata to save up for an in-game RUF 911. That passion for small, lightweight sports cars drove his desire to learn more about the industry, get his hands on as many cars as he could, and bring those experiences to life on the page. He cut his teeth writing about BMWs, Volkswagens, and Audis, mostly, and has owned far too many of each. He’s on his fourth 3 Series sedan, but all of his old, cheap German cars have forced him to learn more about car maintenance than his mechanical capability can handle. Too many late nights have been spent scrambling to get a car running by morning so he could get to work. For some reason, he never seems to learn that old Bimmers probably aren’t the best daily drivers. But he loves more than just old German cars. He’ll gladly drive and discuss anything with four (or even three) wheels. Cars aren’t his only passions, though. Nico is also a big nerd and loves movies, video games, comic books, and cares far too much about the New York Giants. So don’t be surprised if you see football references or dumb, obscure movie quotes in any of his car reviews. ### Author social links [Instagram]() [LinkedIn]()
