No Mustang Cobra in 2000? That is correct, but there is a Mustang Cobra R! This model produced some absolutely amazing numbers, and was in fact the fastest factory Mustang ever produced by Ford! Raising the bar? We think so.
Here’s another Mustang Specs post. Take a look at the previous spec posts if you haven’t already. These specs were pulled from the Ford Performance Group website, which lists information about any Ford vehicles (Lightning, Mustang Cobras, Taurus SHO, etc).
2000 SVT Mustang Cobra R Specs
Engine Type: V8
Horsepower: 385 @ 6250 RPM
Compression: 9.60:1
Displacement: 5.4L/330 CID
Torque: 385 ft/lbs @ 4250 RPM
As we said earlier, this was the fastest Cobra yet (factory) and the numbers are intense. Just shy of 400HP was unheard of in 2000.
Top Speed: 170 MPH
0-60 MPH: 4.9 seconds
Another 20 MPH to the top speed and half a second shaved off the 0-60 time. A stock car running sub-5s… Intense!
2000 SVT Mustang Cobra R Production Information
It’s always interesting to see how many of each color were produced.
COUPE:
Red: 300
TOTAL: 300
Talk about an elite bunch. 300 of these bad boys produced…ever. Maybe that’s why we haven’t seen one on the road?
Have you seen a 2000 SVT Mustang Cobra R? Do you own one?
