I'm thinking of shopping for a '93 cobra. Can you please give me some tips so that I can spot any fakes?
Thanks.

It's all in the VIN. Also, SVT issues a certificate with the VIN of the car on it.
Can you tell me what I am looking for in the vin? is it a # or letter ?? I am glad it is that easy.
thanks.
thanks.
You should call 1-800-ford-svt. Here's a link to a VIN decoder that will help you too: http://www.scoa.org/VIN.htm. I've got a SWEET teal 93 that may be for sale very soon. If your interested send me a private message. I'm in southern CA.
They is also a metal tag attached between the left headlight and radiator with the viin number stamped on it you can check there also.
That's the buck tag on the radiator support. I've never seen mine but have heard they sometimes fall off.
8th digit will be a 'D'

one quick but not a definite way is no cruise control on the steering wheel.. cruise wasnt an option on the 93 cobra.
The only true way to tell Bro is that ALL 93 cobra's have a 42D in the vin #. All other mustangs have 42E…ext. One more quick thing to make sure your future car hasn't been damage or your ground effect haven't been replaced is that all the ground effects will have matching vin #'s to the automobiles vin #. Good luck…and also I have a black 93 cobra for sale with 17,000 miles. And yes all my vin. #'s match!
FYI: The whole thing about cobra not having cruise control is total false. There were several PP1 93 cobra's produced for executives that had cruise control. I know cause my father had one. They are very rare cars.:rollseyes

vin # is foolproof.
