I remember walking out of a ball park in 94 and seeing 2 brand new Mustangs on display. I thought they were the most futuristic looking vehicles I’d ever seen. These are our classics now

[@dougedoug2105]

I got a yellow remote controlled Mustang GT like these from a Toys ‘R Us when I was a small child. I’ll never forget that day, it was a Sunday, and my daddy made me do a million chores before he bought it but it was so worth it. I loved that thing, it was beautiful and even though it wasn’t a real life automobile, using my imagination you couldn’t tell me back then that I was not driving a real one. I’d still buy one of these 26 years later

When these were new, I remember going to the Ford dealer with my family, looking at the Mustang GT. I always told people that one day I would own a Mustang & I bought a new 2012 V6 & new 2018 GT. I wouldn’t be happier owning anything else.

It's really just an updated body. Still the same exact foxbody platform with McPherson struts and 4 link rear. Even the dashboard can be fitted into a foxbody

[@aayonce4]

Well isn’t that mundane?

[@damilolaakanni]

Well, if it isn't broken, don't fix it. Nissan did almost the exact same thing with the new Z, same chassis as the last one (370Z) with the Infiniti Q50/Q60 engine and the same six speed manual from the 370Z, I think. It was still well received.

[@GP1138]

Was not expecting to see an OEM MiniDisc player in a Mustang, featured on MotorWeek of all places. Car MD players were much more common in the UK and especially Japan.

[@wx4newengland]

The only other us Ford that I knew of that had the mini disk player was the SHO

[@Blue-moon12]

I don't recall many mini disc players in the UK

[@houseofno]

@@wx4newengland The Minidisc was not a popular option. Sony was trying to shake down both manufacturers of players and media producers for license fees (just like what happened with the Betamax and the Sony Memorystick). Additionally it had copyprotection built in, which meant that you couldn't record your own media to it without an expensive recorder hardware and again paying license fees to Sony. Affordable CD-burning was still a few years away, and the MP3 player a few years further out. USB and Bluetooth wouldn't get sorted out until the end of the 90s.

[@UmmYeahOk]

@@houseofno yeah, they tried to revive the minidisc with PSP UMDs. All PSP games came on UMDs, and naturally all Sony movies and televisions were released to UMD as portable video entertainment. Other studios ended up releasing some as well. This was during the BluRay/HD DVD format wars, so after losing out to VHS, Sony put more focus into winning that battle. What’s sad is their greed involving portable music. They had dominated the market with their Walkman, and later, Discman, but once digital music became a thing, Sony did not want to release a portable MP3 player. They had a music label division, and feared that this would promote illegal downloads of their music. But CD burners were now a thing, so portable CD players that could read 700MB data discs with MP3s could out handle the more expensive 64MB Rios and such. Apple released theirs, and even Microsoft tried with their Zune. But once iPods became the standard and digital music became more legal to obtain, Sony released a player, only it was too late.

[@UmmYeahOk]

I believe they had to be dealer installed, while an optional CD player could be ordered.

[@jaydenbrockington4525]

[@bradlemmond]

I believe they were popular in Japan, and maybe other markets, but never caught on here.

[@one7decimal2eight]

They were here. They were expensive and audio selection on minidisc at the store was small. They were like mini cds inside of a case. Kind of like a 3.5 inch floppy. They reminded me of the laser disc growing up. Cool, but never caught on.

[@trekzilladmc]

I don't know anyone who had them for personal use, but my first job was working as a broadcaster at a radio station when I was 16 and one of our newscasters had one that he would take with him to record interviews. He bought it to replace his mini cassette recorder because it would store more data, but they just were never popular. This was an era where technology was getting really cool because you could go into Best Buy or Circuit City and see all there was on display.

[@McBeamer94]

The only version of the minidisc I know is the UMD (Universal Media Disc) of Sony for PSP. Other than that, I had no idea CDs came in a miniature version. 🤣

[@Trance88]

Crazy to think that the 1964 Mustang in 1994 is almost the same age as a '94 mustang today, yet we still look at the '64 as a classic the same way we did in '94, but we don't really call the '94 a "classic" today. It's still somewhat modern.

[@houseofno]

The 1964 car is very attractive, but mechanically, it's a deathtrap and a rust magnet waiting to happen. No seatbelts, no padded dash or steering wheel, and in some cars, severely inadequate drum brakes easily overpowered by as much as 271 horsepower from a K-code 289 V8. The 1994 car is still an attractive car, and your chances of surviving a collision in a 94 car go up considerably compared to it's three decades older counterpart. Additionally, that '94 car is far more likely to still be structurally sound after three decades, even with some undercarriage rust.

[@ScottParisi]

I had a 94 Cobra 5MT. First cool car, with a V-8 I ever owned. Great power lumbar adjustment and Mach stereo. Fun car.

[@FJDPerformance]

This is the generation of mustang that I always see going down the street making 100mph noises at 30mph bc no one took care of them. What a shame

[@bbc_junior4863]

This generation of mustang was kinda underpowered. A camaro of the same time had much more power. A Toyota Camry with a V6 was ALMOST as fast as a mustang GT in 1994.

[@angelgjr1999]

@@bbc_junior4863 Meh just swap new edge parts into the sn95. People like to talk smack about the 4.6 but with mods, gears, and a little weight reduction and these cars can go very fast. I’ve beaten 5.7 chargers in street races. Camaros are not known for quality.

[@joshjlmgproductions3313]

@@angelgjr1999 Yeah, I'm not sure what Ford was doing with the Mustang. The same 150-horsepower V6 made 200 horsepower in the Windstar, while the Mustang GT only had 215.

@@joshjlmgproductions3313 Yeah them older V8s made very little hp.

[@HAL-dm1eh]

@@bbc_junior4863 No, it wasn't. A 94 V6 Camry was around 8 sec 0-60 and the 94 Mustang GT was 6.4. The base Camry would also lag behind the V6 Mustang as well when it got its 40 hp boost in 99.

[@PANTYEATR1]

i was 16 when the 94 Mustang came out. i knew i wanted it for my first car as a GT convertible, that bright yellow with a black top and interior. it took me 17 years to get my first mustang which was a 95 GT and not taken care of. later, i found a rusty free shell with no accidents. i spent 6 years resto-modding that car on a rotisserie and it's the best car I've ever built. its not yellow or convertible, but it will do💪

[@shoveI]

that transition at 0:37 is sweet for being done in 1993

[@kevinbarry71]

215 hp, that's less horsepower than the GT in the late 80s. Amazing that a four-cylinder Camry today, actually going back several years, has almost the same horsepower

[@davek12]

I noticed that, he said up 10, it was down 10. 93s had 225 and 300 ft. lb.

[@JodaMoore]

@@davek12 horsepower numbers were odd during this era (fox).I want to say they were 225 then down to 215 then 205 in 93. Feel like they were always 225 from 87-95. Lol Just Ford messing with it for some reason. I had a 89, 93 and now a 94. Owner all when stock and really no difference unless you’re talking auto vs 5 speed.

[@austinfrazier7325]

@Sean Rienzo correct the hp rating was 205hp although I think there was no difference from the 92 to the 93. I don’t know why Ford rated it at 205 that year.

[@dodgeguyz]

Yes, Ford was playing with the SAE numbers in 93. But in 94 they were playing with the powerband and the cam. HP fell a bit but torque rose slightly at a lower RPM. And the throttle ratio was changed which made the car feel slower because you needed more throttle input to get the same as the 93’s.

[@damilolaakanni]

Wasn't this the generation where they had to recall the Cobra models because it had less power that Ford actually advertised?

[@DaveAdams222]

Did you just say . . . MiniDisc? That's actually kinda cool! I bet that's a VERY rare option seen on production vehicles.

[@boss12]

Mini disc‼️ I stopped paying attention to anything performance related after that. That was all I needed to see.

I really liked the SN95 (1994 to 2004) Mustang Cobras, especially the earlier, non-New Edge pre-99 cars. The 1996 through 1998 early Cobras are among my favorite SN95 Cobras. Those front Cobra bumpers were clean looking and very well designed, a lot more distinctive than the Cobra bumpers on the 93 Fox body cars, which were very similar to the non-Cobra GT 93 cars.

Everything has gone to crap

[@quad5186]

One thing I remember was the horizontal taillights being disliked for their similarity to Camaro’s , which I read was the reason they went back to vertical.

[@houseofno]

Actually the bigger reason was that they resembled the earlier, unpopular Fox body Mustang GT "cheese-grater" tail lights. The revised '96 to '98 vertical tail lights were much more attractive and could be retrofit onto the earlier cars pretty easily. The Mustang taillights were much taller than the Camaro's and did NOT resemble them at all. If you think these two tail light designs look at all similar, you've got bigger problems. See your optometrist.

Anyone remember the Full House episode ‘Stephanie’s Wild Ride?’ Stephanie and Gia met two guys at the mall who took them for a crazy ride in a turquoise 94 Mustang convertible, which would have been brand new when the episode was filmed. At the end of the episode, only Gia was with those guys in the Mustang after DJ stopped Stephanie from going, and it’s revealed that they got into a bad accident. Danny mentions that it was a good thing they were all wearing seat belts and the car was totaled, but you can also assume that the dual airbags saved their lives.

I had a 94’ white convertible Gt just like the one in this video a couple years ago. I liked the car but, it lived a hard life before I got it. Kept having overheating problems and it needed a bunch of little things fixed. I ended up selling, but I still kinda want another one.

[@jakefairbanks1326]

My first car was a 95 mustang, 100% base model. My dad owned it and then my uncle before me. My uncle put these insane Porsche-style black leather racing seats in it before it came back to me. Something happened and the harmonic balancer ended up *falling out* and I ran it over. We sold it for parts after that with a little over 200k miles and lots of loving wear and tear. Great high school memories in that car.

[@MustangsTrainsMowers]

For 8 months in 1995 I worked at a wholesale car auction. They had lots of Ford rental fleet returns so we drove lots of 94/95 Mustangs. The best looking one one was a yellow convertible with the 17” tri bar (6 spoke) wheels. One of the GT’s I retrieved from the back lot I accidentally put it in 3rd gear from sitting still. The engine bogged as it pulled forward and then took off. The shifter pattern put 1st gear way to the left getting in the way of your right knee if you are 5’-11” like me.

[@angelgjr1999]

Haha yes sir! It’s easy to start in 3rd gear with these lightweight ponies! I’ve also gone from 1st gear into 4th before by accident and didn’t stall! The torque in the small block v8 is impressive!

I recall my sister being pissed that my dad didn't buy her the '95 Polo Green convertible with tan top for her graduation. The truth of the matter was Ford stopped taking orders for that combination due to the styling updates of the '96. Little did she know she gained a more powerful and updated car by waiting 3 months because they dropped the 4.6 in the GTs that year. She kept the car 10 years as a daily driver until she got married(bought the 2006 Explorer Limited when she got her "big job"). Her husband has turned it into a great project car now.

[@williamburton3814]

Just bought a 94 gt today, and I love it

[@darnellrobeson4761]

I think this is one of the best looking 90s cars. It truly reminds me of the original. This is the Mustang of my childhood. The fact that it was built on the old Fox platform was brilliant. That kept costs down but the car looked all-new. I predict the GTs will go up in value and desirability in the future.

[@DizzyMan24]

Imagine buying the new '94 GT Mustang in '94 and rolling up to a light next to an '89 Foxbody and losing haha.

[@houseofno]

Not really a fair fight. Even the Fox LX 5.0L was only around 150 to 200 pounds lighter than the Fox GT. The LX's 5.0L main claim to fame was a sticker a few thousand dollars less than a GT's, despite being mechanically identical cars. An '89 is also not saddled with the later car's driver's side airbag, slightly heavier sound deadening, and a slight weight boost from a tiny increase in the wheelbase. That race is too close to call. Either car could win based on better driver reflexes alone, as their other numbers were just too close to call.

[@hellkitty1014]

I remember when these hit the streets and it was an overnight hit! Female buyers who never considered the previous Fox body flocked to Ford(ironic given this was just a new body on a Fox🤣). But it did allow Ford to really start to push the styling envelope of the Mustang. Many purist thought of it to be a new Probe when it came out due to the round and curvy styling(and the fact that Ford wanted to kill the Mustang in favor of keeping the Probe to better compete with the smaller and cheaper Japanese entrants of the day), but the Mustang, again, had staying power(they also wanted to kill it in the 70s as well).

[@houseofno]

The move to the Pinto platform was a very unpopular one, but it did save the car. It didn't help the Mustang II win any friends among enthusiasts that the V8 was unavailable during the II's first year (1974), nor that the V8 car gained some very unattractive, longer front fenders needed to accommodate the 302. Enthusiasts issues with the Probe were three fold: 1) it was very unpopular with American consumers that the car's future was being put in the hands of a Japanese manufacturer (Mazda) who had very little understanding of the Mustang's ponycar traditions (V8 power, rear drive, as well as the car's signature styling cues); 2) Enthusiasts did not want the Mustang to ditch its V8 or its rear drive layout, and 3) the Probe looked NOTHING like the Mustang it replaced.

[@andersonfirmino8925]

Sensacional 😁👍

[@Just1American1966]

It took until maybe last year or so for this generation Mustang to finally start growing on me..

[@manthony225]

Did the removable hard top make it to production?

[@WhuDhat]

Right, that was pretty cool. Never actually seen one though

[@houseofno]

Extremely rare and expensive option. Ford essentially botched the engineering of the hard top. The hard top required some additional latching and mounting points, and could not be retrofitted to cars not originally fitted with the hard top option. Most consumers balked at the extra $2,500 cost, on top of the already few thousand extra the convertible was stickering for. Ford quietly dropped the option after just one or two model years. Ford refused to offer the install kit for liability reasons (ie Ford feared they could get sued if an owner botched the install and damaged the body through an improper install, or worse, the hardtop could separate if not secured properly during a vehicle rollover).

Never seen a Mustang with the Sony MiniDisc player @4:02 wonder how many of those exist, had to be a rare option

[@ka24de-t]

Mustang of my childhood... i prefer the vertical tails tho

[@adamn7516]

I don't remember them offering a removable hardtop for the convertible??

[@houseofno]

It was briefly offered, and Ford essentially botched the engineering on it. The hardtop required some additional mounting points and some additional latches, which meant it couldn't be retrofitted to cars not originally sold with the removeable hardtop. For warranty reasons, Ford was not willing to offer it as a retrofit kit (improper installs could result in roof leaks, damage to the body, and potential lawsuits for Ford). Most consumers balked at the additional $2,500 cost of the option, and only a few actually took the option. Ford quietly discontinued the option one or two model years later.

A new Mustang with a retro 302 engine.

its not really true, there were way better cars overseas

If you listen carefully, you can already hear the head gaskets failing in that 3.8!

I'm glad they didn't kill this off back in 1988. The looks of the 80s Mustangs weren't as sleek or sexy as the third-gen F-bodies, but the interior and ride of the Mustang were far better than the GM F-body. Sadly Ford botched the look of the car with the New Edge "update" for the 1999 to 2004 models, but won me back into the fold with the S197 2005 to 2009 car. The interior of the SN95 was definitely an upgrade over the 1987 to 1993 cars. That hardtop option didn't last long. Not only was it difficult to retrofit or swap into cars not previously ordered with the option, it was an expensive option (around $2,500 on top of the price of the convertible). Today it's extremely rare and very difficult to find.

[@angelgjr1999]

New Edge is the best in my opinion. SN95 looks like a Japanese car.

[@yugotime1598]

There is an OEM mini disc player on ebay right now for $1,300

[@fernandochaves9665]

I love the styling of this car. Many people don't, but i think its a really beautiful design. People complain about the SN95 being slower than camaros-firebirds of that era; of course, they used a 5.7! Imagine the disappointment at GM headquarters if it wasn't that way! Probably Ford used a 5.0 and latter a 4.6 because they were uninterested in what the competition is doing. They are right. Who cares GM and Chrysler?

[@goldenretriever6440]

I always thought these Mustangs looked like Mazda’s especially the 99 to 04 I guess it’s fitting cuz Ford did have a stake in Mazda at the time But my personal favorite mustang is the generation after this one

[@weskirkland5850]

Can't believe the same interior went for 10 years.

[@bigbline405]

Biggest complaint is why Ford never decided to make the 5.8 liter lightning v8 available in the gt the 93 z28 and ta had the 5.7lt1 and took over and when they replaced the good old 5.0 with the 4.6 when gm had upgunned to the ls1 it was no contest

[@angelgjr1999]

Hey man 4.6 still makes decent torque, I think Ford used it because it was easier to fit in the Fox platform, and it had decent gas mileage. I get 18.4 MPG mixed driving with some hard pulls! Impressive for a v8 sports coupe.

[@howtobebasic2122]

HEY GUYS CHRISFIX HERE!

[@jonmcclane7433]

Always liked the Foxbody better, even though these had some improvements, especially the interior.

Doesn't seem impressive today but these were beating up on the imports of the time
