Ford’s Special Vehicle Team (SVT) department was responsible for some of the fastest muscle cars of the last 25 years. In 1995, they presented another Cobra R. This was produced in 250 examples and sold only to individuals with a racing license or private teams. Under the hood was a tuned 5.8-liter V8 engine, which delivered 300 hp and 356 lb-ft of torque. Even though this kind of power is not pretty impressive today, it was a hefty number for 1995, and since the Cobra R was a relatively light car, the performance was excellent.
