I've actually seen them alot on ebay here and there through the years. They're nice but I think i would take a 2000 R over a 95 R.

I saw one new back in 95. They seem to be the least desirable of the R models. A 351 pushing 300 is laughable by today's standards.

I'd take a 2000R for the Killer 5.4 powerplant BUT that ugly rear spoiler would be put up in the attic for safe keeping:gringreen

Affirmative on the pic nic table bench rear spoiler. What was that design team thinking?

well people get these crazy ideas that the car will somehow be worth gazillions down the road since it's "limited"...well if there is no demand then so much for that theory
Yeah the 2000 Cobra R is a much more desirable car, that engine is crazy strong

"The 1995 Mustang brought about no significant changes to the base model, GT, or Cobra, but the addition of two new trim lines offered enthusiasts two quick new options. The first, more basic addition was the Mustang GTS. The GTS was basically a stripped down GT, with the performance aspects of the GT, as well as the badging, but there were no fog lights as found on the GT, and no rear GT wing. Also, the interior was similar to that found in the V6 base model with cloth manual seats; although a power driver's seat was an option. The GT gauge cluster was standard on the GTS, but power locks and windows were not. However, if you chose a GTS, you could order any option that was offered for the base model. This trim line offered someone who wanted the grunt of the GT without the cost and options, and this was only offered for 1995. The bigger news was the reintroduction of the mighty Cobra R. Considering the popularity of the 1993 Cobra R, the SVT engineers went back to work to produce an even meaner R, and the 1995 Cobra R did not disappoint. While the 1993 Cobra R used the same engine as the Cobra, the 1995 R used a whole new engine, and the 250 1995 Cobra R's were basically a street legal race car, and a professional driver's license (NHRA or SCCA) was required for purchase. The new engine of the Cobra R was a naturally aspirated 5.8L, producing 300 horsepower, mated to a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission, and fed by a 20 gallon Fuel-Safe racing fuel cell. The suspension was heavily upgraded with progressive rate springs, a front strut tower brace, and larger stabilizer bars; so not only would this new Cobra R get up and go in a straight line (running a stock 13.8 second quarter mile) but it would also handle the road course as well. Saleen Industries had the relative same lineup, with the power ranging from 371 to 480 horsepower. One other interesting and very rare Mustang offering for 1995 was the option of a hardtop convertible. 499 of this hardtop convertible were produced, and even more rare were a few convertibles which came with a hardtop and soft-top, and although they were never officially offered, there are some in public hands today. The hardtop option was cool, but it was inconvenient and would be done away with after 1995. Thanks in part to the new options, and the increased interest of the public the 1995 outsold the 1994 model."
