The Ford Fox Body Mustang is a cult classic known for its 5.0-liter V8 engine. A lesser-known fact is that the Fox Body was the first generation of Mustang to use a turbocharged four-cylinder engine. In 1984, Ford put the first fuel-injected engine under the hood of the Mustang to improve power output and fuel economy. Anyone looking for a classic Mustang that won't break the bank should consider buying a Fox Body Mustang.

While most vehicles become more powerful over time, the Fox Body Mustang lost some performance during the 1980 and 1981 model years due to the energy crisis. The smaller 4.2-liter V8 engine makes roughly 20 less horsepower and 50 lb-ft of torque than the 5.0-liter V8 found in the 1979 Mustang. Power output rose during later model years, and the 5.0-liter V8 high-output version made 225 horsepower and 300 lb-ft of torque at its peak.


<h4>Ford Fox Body Mustang Body Styles</h4>

The Fox Body Mustang is available in coupe (notchback), convertible, and hatchback body styles. The hatchback weighs slightly more, but it offers more than triple the cargo capacity (10 vs. 32.4 cu. ft), likely one reason it outsold the notchback. Another factor is that the GT trim was only available as a hatchback and convertible. Due to increased weight and chassis flex, the convertible is the least popular of the three body styles.

</ul>


<h4>Ford Fox Body Mustang Models</h4>

Ford made the Fox Body Mustang in various trim levels, but the most popular are the GT, LX, SVO, and SVT Cobra. Due to its more extensive production run, the GT is the most accessible when it comes to the price of the high-performance trims. Earlier Mustang models have a carbureted engine before switching to fuel injection in the mid-1980s.


<a href="https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/ford/mustang/gt?endYear=1993">Fox Body Mustang GT</a>: Compared to the lower trim levels, the <a href="https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/ford/mustang/gt">Mustang GT</a> features numerous upgrades to enhance performance and styling. Many suspension components have been upgraded to increase stiffness and improve handling. GT models also feature wider tires to help put down the additional horsepower that the 5.0-liter V8 produces. Power output varies by year, but the 5.0-liter high-output engine made 225 horsepower and 300 lb-ft of torque during its heyday.

All Mustang models received a styling refresh in 1987, but the GT was the most notable with its aggressive ground effects. The large air scoops in the bumper and side skirts help improve the Fox Body Mustang's aerodynamics and overall styling. When people think of the quintessential Fox Body Mustang, the GT is almost always what comes to mind


<a href="https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/ford/mustang/lx?endYear=1993">Fox Body Mustang LX</a>: The LX trim is available in three body styles: coupe, convertible, and hatchback. Underneath the hood of the LX coupe and hatchback is a 2.3-liter four-cylinder. The LX convertible came standard with a 3.8-liter six-cylinder. There was also the option to upgrade to the 5.0-liter V8 engine. One of the most desirable Mustang LX configurations is the coupe with a 5.0-liter V8 because the GT trim was never available as a coupe.

<a href="https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/ford/mustang/lx">Mustang LX</a> models equipped with the 5.0-liter V8 also include the upgraded suspension and tires found on the GT. If it were not for the 5.0 badge on the fenders and the rumbling exhaust note of the V8, the LX would be a rather unassuming car. Compared to the GT, the LX does not have bold ground effects, rear spoiler, and fog lights that make the Mustang look fast even when parked. The Mustang LX offers an excellent blend of everyday usability and performance.


<a href="https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/ford/mustang/svo?endYear=1993">Fox Body Mustang SVO</a>: The Mustang SVO (Special Vehicle Operations) hit the market in 1984 and has a 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine under the hood. Unique features include a dual rear spoiler, functional hood scoop, revised suspension geometry, and fuel grade switch. The fuel grade switch allows drivers to toggle between premium and regular gas to maximize performance depending on the current octane in the fuel tank.

For the 1985.5 model year, the <a href="https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/ford/mustang/svo?searchRadius=75">Mustang SVO</a> gained 25 horsepower and 30 foot-pounds of torque, bringing its power output up to 200 hp / 240 lb-ft of torque. Drivers who wanted to get the most performance out of their SVO could select the Competition Prep option, which lowers the weight of the Mustang by removing the following items: air conditioning, power windows, power locks, and audio system.


<a href="https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/ford/mustang/cobra?endYear=1993">Fox Body Mustang SVT Cobra</a>: Ford ended production of the Fox Body on a high note in 1993 with the Mustang SVT (Special Vehicle Team) Cobra. The Fox Body SVT Cobra has a 5.0-liter high-output V8 engine with a few modifications to help squeeze every drop of performance available. More air equals more power, and the high-flow GT-40 cylinder heads, enlarged intake manifold, and large-bore throttle body add nearly 15% more power than the standard 5.0 V8 engine. The upgraded engine makes 235 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque. The SVT Cobra is still reasonably quick, even by modern standards, with a 0 – 60 time of 5.7 seconds and a top speed of 140 mph.

Upgrading the driveline components was necessary to handle the extra power, and modifications included the clutch, gearbox, and driveshaft. The <a href="https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/ford/mustang/cobra">Mustang SVT Cobra</a> also features upgraded suspension and larger 245/45/17 tires to improve handling and help put down the extra power.

Production of the SVT Cobra was limited to roughly 5,000 units, and the higher-performance <a href="https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/ford/mustang/cobra-r">Mustang SVT Cobra R</a> was limited to just 107 units. The Cobra R is a road-legal track car that removed the rear seats and many creature comforts, such as the audio system, air conditioning, power windows, and sound deadening, to reduce the weight by nearly 150 pounds.


<h4>Fox Body Buying Tips</h4>

Ford added fuel injection to the Mustang in 1986, which increased the power output and allowed for additional tuneability with aftermarket parts. For the 1987 model year, the Fox Body Mustang received an exterior styling update that improved its appearance and aerodynamics. The flush-mounted headlights improve the appearance, and the GT trim level receives ground effects that enhance form and function. Other notable styling changes include removing the optional T-Top roof after 1988.

Safety features were pretty limited for the Fox Body Mustang compared to modern standards, and a steering wheel-mounted airbag became standard in 1990. Unfortunately, adding the airbag meant the five-position tilt steering wheel was unavailable due to safety concerns.

If you are not in the market for a Fox Body Mustang with T-Tops, the best years to shop for are between 1989 and 1992. <a href="https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/ford/mustang">Ford Mustang</a> models made before 1992 feature forged aluminum pistons that are more durable and can safely handle additional power produced by aftermarket performance modifications.



 
 How much does a Ford Fox Body Mustang cost?
 
 The Fox Body Mustang has an average sales price in the mid-$20,000 range. The high-performance SVT Cobra version sells for double or sometimes triple the price of the run-of-the-mill Mustang due to its limited production of less than 5,000 units. The holy-grail SVT Cobra R, which only roughly 100 models were produced, sells for well over $100,000.
