3. Ford Mustang SVO

The Fox-body Mustang was sleeker, more modern, and aerodynamic than its predecessors and revolutionized the range. It was also somewhat lighter and more nimble, which reflected the performance. However, the biggest news was the introduction of the turbo engine, a very modern device for the time.

Ford’s SVO (Special Vehicle Operations) department introduced a special Mustang SVO for 1984, featuring a 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 175 hp. It was quite the power output for a small engine.
