Mustang History: 1998

The only way to differentiate a '97 from a '98 is to see if a clock pod is mounted to the dash. If not, it's a '98 and the clock is integrated into the audio system.

Exhaust ports are overhauled, bringing another 10 horsepower to the GT.

The #1 sales year for the SVT Mustang Cobra, which is now fitted with five-spoke '95 Cobra R-like rims.
