The help sagging sales, Ford offered a Limited Edition models in 1992 and 1993. Three were offered in 1993: bright yellow and white LX convertibles. The white came with a white top and white interior and the yellow either came with white and white or black and black with chrome wheels.

Ford formed a Special Vehicle Team (SVT) in 1991 to create high-performance cars. SVT's first offering was the 1993 Mustang SVT Cobra. Their modifications resulted in 10 more horsepower and better handling. Later in the year they offered a race-ready Cobra R. The R had no rear seat, air conditioner, or sound deadening material to make it lighter. The wheels were black with chrome hubcaps. Only 107 were made.

The Saleen SA-10 was built to celebrate Saleen's 10th anniversary. Preliminary plans were to build 10, but only nine were produced. They were all black hatchbacks and had sequential VIN numbers.

The SA-10 featured items such as a Saleen design composite hood, bolt-in rollbar, 3 piece Stern wheels, Saleen panhard rod, Saleen rear shock tower brace and a Supercharger/ ceramic coated header power package. All the cars special seating, a special gauge cluster and a CD player. On the outside, there was a black, yellow and white paint and graphics treatment.
