For the 1996 model year, Ford’s Mustang SVT Cobra featured a new DOHC 4.6-liter V8, replacing the outgoing 5.0-liter unit. This example is one of approximately 47 convertibles finished in Black with a Saddle convertible top and a Saddle leather interior. It is equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission, a limited-slip differential, a rear spoiler, fog lights, a cassette stereo, air conditioning, and more. This 1996 Cobra Convertible is now being offered for auction by its seller out of Illinois showing less than 58k miles on the odometer.
Finished in Black (UA) with a Saddle convertible soft top, the SVT Cobra featured a domed hood for the 1996 model year, along with updated taillights with three vertical bars, ‘COBRA’ lettering on the rear valence, and a redesigned spoiler. Other equipment includes fog lights, Cobra badging, and dual exhaust outlets. It rides on 17” cast aluminum five-spoke wheels wrapped in Falken tires from 2021. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.
The cabin is upholstered in Saddle leather and features a two-tone dashboard, a four-spoke steering wheel, white instrumentation, dual front airbags, and a cassette stereo. All gauges, electronics, and accessories are reported to function as intended, with no warning lights present.
Powered by a 4.6-liter DOHC V8 engine with an aluminum cross-bolted block cast by Teksid in Italy, the SVT Cobra sends up to 305 HP and 300 lb.-ft. of torque to its rear wheels through a T5OD 5-speed manual transmission and a Traction-Lok limited-slip differential. The engine also featured split ports, a dual 57mm throttle body with an 80mm MAF, and an integrated oil cooler allowing for acceleration from 0-60 MPH in as little as 5.5 seconds. Standard equipment includes rack and pinion power steering and vented disc brakes. The seller reports an oil change was performed in preparation for the sale.
This sale will include the owner’s manuals, a toolkit, some documentation, and a clean title.
The seller would like you to know: “Well maintained and serviced! Beautiful Black on Saddle color combination. Enjoy this car on nice and sunny days, top down! SVT Cobra!

Do you have any other service history?
@skulig Carfax doesn’t record all service unfortunately. I have a $2k+ receipt for the service i did to the vehicle during my ownership.
Do you have any oil change history. The Carfax shows the first oil change at 55k miles?
