1996 Ford Mustang Cobra review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Oil level warning indicator stayed on and was replaced. CD Player died and was replaced. All repairs were under warranty.
The only really annoying problem is with the tires. They leak air slowly and its not noticable. The tires look fine, but could go flat without warning due to very low air pressure. If you keep checking the air pressure every couple of months, you will prevent any potential problems.
General comments?
This is basically a good "horse power for your dollar" kind of car. It gives similar or better performance than sports cars that cost almost double the price.
It would be even better if it had a higher ratio rear gear (4.10) and a stiffer suspension.
