What's omitted is that the popularity of the facelift and performance improvements made possible the retention of the Fox-based RWD, when Ford seriously considered using the Probe/Mazda 626 platform as the new edition.
Mustang enthusiasts were able to point to sales figures as justification for their protests.
From 1989 to 1992 changes were limited to wheel and tire combinations and the introduction of 'Special Edition' models in non-standard colors. 1993 would be the final year of the original Fox body Mustang. Ford re- introduced the Cobra, rated at 235 horsepower and distinguished by unique front and rear bodywork. 107 Cobra R models were built which included track tuned suspension and deleted the rear seat, radio, fog lights and other components to reduce weight. unquote
