Juicer said:the fox mustang gt from canada was called the gt cobra. so if it was made in canada its a cobra. in the us the only cobra was the 93. hope this helps. you can google it or do a search for more info.
if u classify a cobra as an svo or svt car then no its not a cobra,but like said before the canadian built fox was called a gt cobra.all in all u have a regular gt that just so happens to be called a gt cobra.mob said:yea you can probably check by the vin number, but i can answer your question now, NO its not a cobra, sorry, only cobra made was in 93, and like juicer said, if your in canada and purchased it there, it probably had cobra badges on it, so if your in canada and have the badges, technically its a cobra, but really.. its not...
and if your trying to distinguish it on a 93, it really isnt hard, theres alot of different body parts (ex. grill, front and back bumper, side skirts, badges, wheels, ext.)

gregpro50 said:It cant be a cobra. Even if it was a Canadian cobra like Michael Yount said it is cosmetic only. There is nothing in the vin # to separate it from a regular GT. Is your spedo in kilometers ??
thats exactly what im saying its only a cobra by name.it dosnt have gt40 heads it doesnt have a cobra intake or 24# injectors and so on and so forthmob said:The way you see a cobra is the name.. A REAL cobra, would have an svt certificate, and also all the body, suspension, and engine features they do from the factory, not sure exactly what the canada cobras have i dont quite remember but i think it just has a few badges that say cobra.. dosent sound anymore special then a gt to me.
StreetStang302 said:Yes there is, I have several friends with cobras and one of my dad's friends used to work at a Ford dealership, and he is the original owner of his 1993 Mustang Cobra and he has indicated that all mustangs that say cobra on them can be simply fakes, he has proven that if you look at the VIN, and the 12th figure of the Cobra is the letter "D" then you have a legitimate Cobra. If the 12th figure is not a "D", and the mustang indicates that it is a Cobra, it is a guaranteed fake Cobra. A lot of people buy Cobra conversion kits and say it is a Cobra, but it is really just a GT with Cobra looks, it is not legitimate. There are no mustangs with the VIN having a letter "D" as the 12th figure except all Cobras.
gregpro50 said:I understand that. The cobras were only made in '93. He is asking about an '89. No such thing as an '89 cobra.
