I was one year off on the cupholder redesign. As I mentioned, the New Edge update/refresh occurred in ‘99 but the cupholder redesign actually occurred in ‘98.😬
I was actually about to comment that but I read this as I started typing lol. I have a 98 gt same color as your cobra and it has the black on black interior with the new edge cup holders which are essentially useless if you have a 5 speed cause 2 and 4th shifts are impeded by your drink
I was bout to comment too I thought the last owner did some 😓
I have the 2 new edge cup holders in my 1997. The original owner must have put them in I suppose
I was going to say. My 98 GT had them
The later years of the New Edge have a further improved cup holder design. I have a center console from a Terminator swapped into mine.
Call it a quirk if you want, I LIKE my hood’s prop rod. I had two Firebirds with heavy hoods, and piston supports that wore out. A prop rod may be old-fashioned and somewhat awkward, but it will never wear out.
Yeah, 09 Challenger’s hood was HEAVY and I wouldn’t trust working underneath it if it had no prop rod and relied on only piston supports.
I agree. My transportation car is a 2006 Crown Vic, with lift supports. Wanna know how it feels to get hit in the head with a 200 pound hood? I now carry a piece of pipe in the trunk to hold the hood open.
Prop rods save on concussions 🤕😅 had many shocks fail randomly when I put too much faith in them.... Rams are terrible for false hopes
I actually added prop supports to my s&95 but I saw no reason to remove the prop rod so I actually have both. I can use the struts all the time but if they start to wear out I can just use the prop rod instead since I keep it as a backup
Agreed. The trunk uses lift supports and I’ve hurt myself so many times! They only last a decade, so I had to replace them in 2004, and then again in 2014. 2024 is approaching, and Im wondering if I should just give in and buy them first of the year, rather than wait for another head injury.
400,000, OUTSTANDING
Yeah shit
The rear seats is for insurance. Makes it cheaper than a 2 seater like a Vette
Kids DO fit in those seats. I don't, but I'm 6'1" 240. It's the price you pay for such a car. I'll take it over a 4 door any day.
@@geraldscott4302 I did multiple 20h road trips in those backseats as a kid. Was my dads only car
I can fit in the rear seat if the person in front moves up. It’s surprisingly comfortable despite being so tight.
Not true really but sure I guess that’s a plus
Shit my friends 6’1 and he fits in the back of my Mustang.
"I love cars, pizza, Blink-182 and Air Jordans." Dude, you're my new best friend!
My biggest quirk i cant stand is the dang seat belts.. not retracting, getting twisted..hanging up..
My channel is based on my 97gt and i have a similar video.
yup gotta dislocate your shoulder to reach it, I keep mine wrapped around the headrest on the driver seat
My 02 GT is the same damn way. I took them apart and oiled the spring mechanism thing and it helped a lot. It's still not like it should be but definitely better.
That was supposed to say "oiled" not point lol
400k!!! Woah buddy, still running good. Amazing.
Just got my 96 gt it’s just quick enough to put a smile on your face
I like prop-rods. Less $ than gas struts.
That fuel cutoff switch is a really good safety feature. I got rear ended one time and when I went to start the car it wouldn't turn over. One of the cops came over and told me to pop the trunk and check to see if the cutoff switch activated. It did. I hit the button amd the car was able to turn over . I thought that was pretty neat.
My daughter had a 96 GT and it had BBK shorty headers and Flowmaster exhaust. I am a Camaro guy but that car was really fun to drive
Your daughter sounds like one hell of a woman sir lol
@@ianhairston5258 😄 ya she loves fast cars
200,000 miles and still running like a charm a 97 roush GT😉
A 99-04 Mustang GT is on my wishlist. I know people say it sucks but I still want one since I was a teen
I like them too.
Nice SVT! I love the bodystyle of the 94-98 SN95 Stangs. I miss my 97 GT, very slow, but it was a lot of fun and Chicks loved that car.... lol
Trunk switch in the glove box.
98 mustangs had the redesign cup holders too.
Just turned 29- thousand miles on my 1996 Mustang SVT Cobra Convertible.
Mine is black with the saddle leather interior.
Driver seat has hairline cracks in the leather but overall it still smells like a new car inside. The carpeting in the car still looks brand new along with the headlights. I think your car still looks great and you’ve done a good job on the interior and the paint. Took it out yesterday for a long ride in the country and the car still has the original hoses spark plug wires.
I paid 12-K for the car and I was offered 18-K for the car. I’m gonna keep it drive it and enjoy it along with my 2010 Camaro RS -SS .
The side scoops on my 95 are “functional”. They’re open but don’t necessarily go to anything like the brakes. The cup holder on the 95 doesn’t have that bottom support so you can place longer cans or cups (skinny lol). My 95 only has 2 o2 sensors. Cool video 👍🏼
Interesting. My ‘95 Cobra cup holder had the bottom support.
Very lol
I think something may be wrong w your cupholder. I had a 94 gt, 95 gt and 97 cobra they were all just like the one in this video.
I bought a 1996 Mustang SVT Cobra Convertible. 21 Thousand original miles. Paid 12 -K for the car. Locks drives and smells like a brand new car. Car was garage kept. Your car looks great 👍. It’s amazing how many miles you have on your car and it still runs great
I love my car it may not be the fastest but it’s fun as hell
I have an 04 new edge convertible and the back is surprisingly comfortable with the top down i jump in instead of doing it the proper way
444k miles 😳 mine is at 163k
Beautiful cobra though
My 94 cobra does have function side scoops although they do nothing. They just push air against the tire instead of the breaks. And the hood scoops also did go through to the engine bay on my stock hood although the hole it pushed air through is only about the side of a quarter
Yeah, to me, functional means they actually do/cool something.
Maybe it's for aero? I mean it would have to help out aero some
Hey dude great review my 98 has the side scoops on the bonnet look under there are 2 holes drilled about an inch round and mesh in scoop so they are semi functional .
Happy driving
Bro I heard your intro and knew I had to sub. LOL. good video man
Very nice cobra! I really love those cobra rims too. Great video and it’s still pulls strong 💪. Might sell my Foxbody and get an 01 cobra.
My 03 GT is getting a suspension revamp right now, everything. We put hood struts on all of them (07, 03, 16 & 20). We went with the Borla Ataks and it is a sound I love, especially when he gets warmed up. The seat belts not retracting is a pain. I find the steering wheel is angled wrong too. I added a clutch extender pedal because I felt like I had to sit too close to the wheel to shift. The seats aren't very good, you slide a bit on sharp curves. We were able to find original black leather seats that a guy had replaced with racing ones, in excellent condition! I love Rasputin more than my 2020 GT, something about it being more mechanical and old school...idk
love that Red, my fav 90s mustang, keep it going
Remember the older cars had the high beam switch on the floor
I honestly am glad the hood doesn’t have lift supports. I had a 1988 BMW 325i convertible before getting my mustang, and it used lift supports for everything. The hood, the trunk, the convertible boot, which needed to stay open for you to manually put up/down the top. Those supports only last a decade, so they were pretty much shot by the time I got the car. My 94 mustang however, I have hurt myself so many times from when the trunk lid would fall on my head. Every decade I have to replace them. 2004, 2014, and now I’m worried about next year when I’ll have to do it yet again! Thank goodness it’s just the trunk!
The functional hood scoop on my mach 1 is one of my favorite parts of the car
Ya my 95 GT had the functional side scoops and my 98 cobra had non functional scoops...I wouldn’t really say that they were functional as they really didn’t do anything but u could see that they were vented into the rear wheel well..
Nice vid bro. I have a 97 cobra pac green. Super fun cars and i never knew about the switch.
I bought a 1996 mustang cobra convertible. 27,000 original miles
The gap between the console and passenger seat makes a perfect cup holder.
I have been watching for 3 minutes so far and I already love your content
👍👊🙏
@@ReynoldsRides The biggest issue that I had was the 4.6.Wow that's crazy miles.I have 9 mustangs myself.I bought a new 97 cobra and with 2thousand miles and I missed a shift and the motor blew.
Another quirk I found with mine is certain rims will rub on the fender well like s197 gt rims and they ride like tanks in their latter years I know mine does. Another is with after market exhausts like magnaflow Etc sometimes you get the typical rattle of the pipes tapping the body and its enough to drive you insane
I put '99 15" wheels on my 2003 V6 so I could put real tires on it. This GHETTO wheel thing has gotten completely out of control.
Great straight forward video
My 97' 98' and 04' had 6 cats until I upgraded to UPR stainless O/R x pipes.
Cars, pizza, blink 182, jordans, AND you're in Utah? This is my kinda guy. Subbed.
The fast I see ur 1995 an 95 on facebook marketplace it wild bro same rims paint and everything
@reynoldsrides i found out why the fog light switch is funky. Your foglight switch is the ragtop switch on the convertibles
One of the best mods i did to my 94gt was remove the cats and put an x pipe in.
I also hate the little plastic nubs that come off the desert to make the seats lay forward.
the side scoops and hood scoops are both funtional on the 94-95 MY cars
My 94 GT convertible has vents that come from the side scoops, to cool the rear brakes (supposedly). If you look inside the rear wheel wells, I'm betting yours has them too.
HIM: "Hi my name is Jeff. I love cars, pizza, Blink 182 and Air Jordan's."
Me: (36 seconds in) immediately presses "LIKE"
I use a BBK cold air, BBK shorty's , BBK X pipe with cat delete, and flowmaster series 40 mufflers
The '94 to 98 cars are my favorite SN95 Mustang, esp the '96 to '98 cars. Ford botched the design of the '99 to '03 Mustangs IMHO. Regarding the tiny rear seats, that's a compromise to make the car affordable to insure. Many insurance companies (then as well as now) charge astronomical amounts for two seater specialty cars, regardless of size. Most finance companies require carrying full coverage in case of an accident to protect their investment (the car) in case it gets totaled in a wreck. If you need a larger rear seat, get a Fox T-bird/Cougar ('83 to '88) or the later '89 to '97 T-bird/Cougar (bigger car but also larger rear seat), or better yet, a Panther body (Crown VIc/Mercury Grand Marquis/Lincoln Town Car). The Cobra R model Mustangs all had a rear seat delete.
I like hearing other opinions. I’ve noticed the 99-04 mustangs are more desirable and valuable. I prefer the look of them as well
@@elliotprokop2525 new edge taillights are way better IMO
New edge make more power stock. SN95s are great but are slow and have little features. Mine as traction control which is a must in the rain.
Cool video, cool car. I own 98 cobra, my first sn95 was also a 95. Looks like we are both from Utah? Keep up the good work.
So nice with that low exhaust sound
On the 96-98 GT they put in a plastic intake manifold that Always has a leak.
Luckily I have the 95
I will never understand that decision. SMH
Just something to add. The ashtray was replaced w cupholders in 1998 it didnt start with the new edge. 1998 also deleted the clock on top of dash that didnt start with the new edge either.
What strut tower brace is that on your old 1995 Cobra? Might need that for my 1994 with Explorer intake manifold.
They have rear seats to place them in a different insurance category from what ive read. No back seats would have resulted in higher insurance. I dont know if this is true or not.
My favorite quirk is that the trunk button is in the glove box, at least it is on the 1998
You made me learn my car has a swapped out cup holder, my 98 has the full double cup holders and it’s not a new edge
The sidescoubs are funcitional on my 94‘ V6!
Functional as in they actually do/cool something?
I rarely ever comment but I love your videos, I’m currently considering buying a c4 corvette, I own a 1997 mustang cobra that I’m selling tomorrow (April 3rd 2021) and I’ve considered a Camaro z28 and I’d love to see more videos of 90s-early 2000’s sports cars. Either wya I love your older car resto mod videos and I think a mid 2000’s sports car would be a great addition to your channel. I hope you are doin great and if you read this comment thank you! Just giving my input as you are a relatively small channel and I know any bit of input helps hopefully people like this and agree that these videos are great content and help people such as myself that don’t have much money to dump into a car but would love some kind of sports car
I also feel like an f body trans am or specifically 98-02 trans am ws6 would be a great addition to the channel
Thanks for the kind words and input.
If you prefer the earlier C4 exterior and interior, the '89 is supposedly the best of those. If you like the later model looks and interior best, a '96 C4 is going to be your best bet.
How about the dent they had to put in the air intake for the strut brace?
The refreshed cup holders were useless, either smashing the shifter into your drink or making a left turn and spilling your drink on the seats.
Idk I’m 6’1 and I’ve never had any trouble fitting in the backseats
Just the fact you said you luv pizza🍕 I had to subscribe!!
actually, the vents on the hood of the cobra are functional... they are simply cool air intakes... for the engine bay.. check em out close, they are open... they are useless but they are functional.
My 98 has the refreshed cup holders too
My 98 cobra has the 2 cup holders does that mean the center console is out of a 99?
What about the ground issue on the driver side of motor under car
I have a 1994 s95. It's a 5.0 GT. 145,000 miles. It has a 5 speed automatic. I enjoy this ride as much as any I have ever had.
I too have a 94 GT Convertible...Had it since new...118,000 miles. Looks new other than needing a new top and visors.
Side scoops and hood scoops are functional on the 94-95s!
In mine a few years ago I used that cup holder and I just bought a red velvet shake from Burger King and just getting off work and on the way home before I parked I went to change gear and the shake fell out everywhere lol
😱🤬
@@ReynoldsRides never got another velvet shake lol
I bought a 96' Cobra this year w/ 84k miles. It came w/ original Hinodex 95' Cobra R wheels, the tires have a DOT date from 2003 (yikes!). I love cars & pizza too...nom nom
👍👊
Love the car!!!!
The side scoops and hood scoops on the 94-95 mustangs are functional.
I only watched the first 30 second and like this guy already
👍👊
Ive owned my sn95 for a month… been rattled cuz it doesnt have a cupholder. Then I see this lol
To be fair lift supports cost like 100 to 200 bucks its not a deal breaker. Ford always left alot up to the owner to fix in the aftermarket and gave the cars to us for less, especially back then. The camaro and vette were both more expensive back then (not much has changed).
Yes I wish the SN 95 would come back for me ive had startin with a 68 GT Mustang 390 4 speed car that got stolen in Texas and was a medium blue with black inside when was found it was distroyed by 2 kids and they were killed Next was an 85 fox body GT 302 5 speed and lots of fun after that An 88 GT Mustang 302 5 speed and hated the taillights with the Ford covers Next was a 90 LX 302 5 speed car That I made into a Drag car was Major fun and Lots of money too and got it to the low 11s was June 12th of 2015 blew the right rear drag slick at a lil over 100 mph hit the wall and Rolled and Glad to be here and it was this to the Roll cage more Then came a 94 GT 302 Automatic Bright red silver leather and black inside The fold down seat got the carpet from the 90 LX from the fold down seat and looks Great went to the salvage yard got the frame ties from a convertible 94 and another Major diffrence then came the E 303 cam intake from a 2001 Explorer and Enjector rails and heads from a 302 with long tube headers 3 inch Exhaust and couldn't stop there had to add a 373 Gear and is a ball to drive after I seen the gas mileage go down the drain and Premium only ouch well with that I found another 94 this one a V6 thats a 3.8 you guessed it was not much for power till I come across a totalled in the rear super couple T bird that was Supercharged you guessed it a Supercharged V6 Mustang Never figured out why Ford never did it and wasn't a hard swap The last thing both 94 mustangs got was 96 Mustang taillights with sequential taillights to loss the Jap look in the rear Thanks for the video and hope this was some help to your readers forsure
Hahahhh I never knew I had a cup holder! Lmfao!
I saw a black Cobra in my parking lot and brought me to these sorts of videos lol. Cobras are the ones to have I think, that DOHC 4.6 makes for a fast car. Ford could’ve put the lesser powered 285hp version from the Lincoln mark 8s in the GTs.
I think they should have put the cobras engine in the gt and a 5.4 like thr 2000 r got in regular cobras. That would have messed up gm even with their ls1s.
@@midnight347 I’ve thought about that too, but it wasn’t until 1999 that the cobra r setup was developed, and it was a lot of one off parts. In 2003 we got the terminator. Going off what was available at the times, 1996-98 GT with the 285hp intech, Cobra with the 305hp. Ford was working on supercharged power with the Super Stallion sn95. Maybe an introduction of the supercharged cobra with the new edge in 1999, as the SVT lightning had the 5.4 2v SC in 1999. And the Mach one could’ve been the spin off of a 4v 5.4 with production versions of the cobra R parts with maybe around 350-360hp to sit between the GT and terminator Cobra.
proud to say I own a 94 mustang gt, and the side scoops are functional, no idea why ford didn't make the 96 and above sn95 have scoops that are just for show and dont work
Functional as in they actually do/cool something?
@@ReynoldsRides well air flows through it at least, was washing my mustang and when washing the side scoops water went through into the wheel well
I have a 95 cobra with 86k miles on it, I have owned it for 9 years.
Nice!
The temp issue traffic on the freeway will make the temp go up
If you look closer at your rear wheel wells in front of the tires there should be a vented plastic panel. remove this and the side scoops will be functional
I’ll have to take a look.
The trunk section vents will cause it to rust out .
One benefit of prop rods is that they don't go bad unless you bend it
Very true.
That car is still a Foxbody.
The cup holder is between the e brake and seat or ashtray. Also between the seat and door, just don't forget and open the door, otherwise, you lose your route 44 Dr. Pepper.
prop rods are awesome
lift support blows
or become as limp as you know what
my 94 gt has functional side scoops. i can see right through them. thats so weird
Hood scoops on 1996 sixers are functional. They are on the side of the hood line.
My 94 GT has functional side scoops and only came with 2 o2 sensors
OBD1 vs OBD2. Bank one o2 sensors regulate fuel mixture. On OBD2, bank two o2 sensors check catalytic converter function.
Will the impending EPA regulations influence your new exhaust system ? All of a sudden I'm not so hot to change my factory equipment .
I wouldn't. You might have missed the news articles, but the EPA has been on a tear lately going after aftermarket companies deleting emissions equipment in violation of the 1970 Clean Air Act. These six figure (that's right) fines are NO joke. This is a federal law (not state, so the EPA doesn't care if your state doesn't do smog inspections). Google "EPA fines rolling coal." Up to you if you really want to play chicken with the Feds. Not me, thank you.
Also, new regulations do not retroactively affect cars that have already been built, titled, and sold.
The scoops are absolutely functional, it's just not blatantly obvious from the inside.
How do you define functional? Actively feeding air to the engine and brakes or just air passing through?
Great video. I cant get over the milage on your car. Was the engine ever rebuilt. Not sure if you mentioned that in a previous video.
According to the original owner, no, it has not been rebuilt.
@@ReynoldsRides Amazing ! And good to know. I have a Marauder, very similar engine Ithink
*I don't know how you do it brother; I barely drive my 1976 Camaro...if I had more, they would never be driven. My 1976 Camaro has lift supports.*
How many times and $ have they been replaced?
4 kids! Wow. I have 3 and that’s enough! Lol. CANADIAN SUPERMAN APPROVES
U can fit ppl in the back I fit adults back there but if you’re not gonna use the backseats u might as well just do a seat delete. It’ll make it faster.
Own a red 95 v6 and a purple 96 gt the 95 has "functional" side scoops but my gt doesn't
my 94 gt 5.0l only has 2 o2 sensors and 2 cats
ALL MY HOOD SCOPPS ACTUALLY WORK! I BELLIEVED
THAT THEY WERENT FOR A WHILE
lmao sick intro
Why the two tone interior?
