I do believe you don't know what you're talking about.

You named three different body styles, as already mentioned.

The 1993 Cobra, the 1994-95 Cobras, and then there is the 96-98 Cobras. So, which was it?

3 gens. 94-95 and 96-98 are easy to tell apart: Hoods, spoilers, wheels, taillights. Then, the motors. Huge difference in exhaust notes.
