Final Days For The C5 Corvette
It's Mystical![Photos 116-0308.SCUP 8A and 8B on disc]For the 2004 model year, the supercharged, 390hp Ford Mustang SVT Cobra will be offered in limited numbers painted with color-shifting MystiChrome paint. According to Ford, depending on lighting conditions and viewing angles, the MystiChrome Cobra's paint appears to change from topaz green to cobalt blue to royal purple, and finally to deep onyx black. Chrome wheels and an interior finished in MystiChrome leather on the seats and steering wheel complete the package.
Only about 1,000 Cobras will be equipped with the MystiChrome package during 2004, and since the paint and stuff shouldn't affect the car's performance in any way whatsoever, we enthusiastically endorse it for people who like it.
