1996 FORD MUSTANG SVT COBRA MYSTIC
This 1996 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra Mystic is one of the most iconic and collectible Mustangs of the modern era. Showing just 28,000 original miles, this highly sought-after Cobra remains exceptionally preserved and represents a rare opportunity to own one of Ford's most memorable Special Vehicle Team creations.
Finished in legendary Mystic paint, this Cobra was the first production vehicle ever offered with a factory color-shifting paint finish. Developed through a collaboration between Ford and BASF, the exclusive Mystic coating changes appearance depending on light and viewing angle, transitioning through shades of green, gold, amber, blue, and purple. The result is a car that never looks the same twice and continues to draw attention nearly three decades after its debut. Ford produced only 1,999 Mystic Cobras for the 1996 model year, making it one of the most recognizable limited-production Mustangs ever built.
Power comes from Ford's hand-assembled 4.6-liter DOHC 32-valve V8, rated at 305 horsepower and paired with a factory 5-speed manual transmission. The high-revving modular engine helped usher in a new era of Mustang performance and remains a favorite among enthusiasts for its smooth power delivery, distinctive exhaust note, and impressive top-end performance.
This Cobra remains stock and unmodified, preserving the originality that collectors seek. Inside, the cockpit features black leather seating, SVT instrumentation, power accessories, air conditioning, and all the characteristics that made the SN95 Cobra one of the premier American performance cars of the 1990s.
As one of only 1,999 Mystic Cobras produced and showing only 28,000 original miles, this SVT Cobra offers an ideal combination of rarity, originality, and collectability. Whether added to a serious Mustang collection, displayed at shows, or enjoyed on the open road, this Cobra stands as a milestone in Mustang history and a true centerpiece for any enthusiast.
