The 1994 Mustang was a major milestone in the history of the iconic car. It marked the 30th anniversary of the Mustang and the first complete redesign since 1979. The new model had a smoother and curvier shape, with no body trim, flush tail lights, and the Mustang name on the rear bumper. The side coves and the front grille pony returned, giving the car a more classic look.

The new model also had only two body styles: a coupe and a convertible. The coupe had a sloping back that resembled the fastback of the 1960s Mustangs. The base engine was now a 3.8 liter V6, replacing the unpopular 4 cylinder engine. The GT package offered a 5.0 liter V8 for both the coupe and the convertible. A rare option for the convertible was a removable hardtop, which was only available for about 500 cars in 1994 and 1995.

The SVT Cobra had the same coupe and convertible body styles, but with some distinctive features. It had a new front fascia with fog lamps, Cobra snake badges, a custom rear spoiler with LED stop lamps, and improved handling. It also had a more powerful V8 engine that produced 25 more horsepower. A Rio Red SVT Cobra convertible was chosen as the Pace Car for the 1994 Indianapolis 500, and Ford made a special edition of pace car replicas.

In 1994, Larry Shinoda, the original designer of the 1969 Mustang Boss, began to modify Mustang GTs and SVT Cobras. He added his own touches to the cars, such as special graphics, spoilers, wheels, and performance parts. He called his creations Shinoda Boss Mustangs, paying tribute to his legendary design from 25 years ago.
