1991
Again, changes in the basic Mustang were minor for 1991. New 16-inch star-shaped wheels on the 5.0 liter V-8 set the ‘91 apart from its 1990 predecessor. The standard four-cylinder 2.3 liter, equipped with electronic fuel injection, got a boost from two spark plugs per cylinder, kicking power from 88 to 105 horses.

New to the options list were front floor mats at $33 and a cargo tie-down net for $66. Leather seats were a $499 add-on. A graphic equalizer was available with the premium sound system for $139 or $307 for the non-premium system. The flip-up sunroof on the hatchback added $355 to the car’s base price.

Production dropped over 29,000 units to 98,737, due in large part to pressures of the recession in domestic markets. Hatchbacks set the pace with 57,777; followed by convertibles - 21,513, and two-door hardtop sedans, or notchbacks, at 19,447 cars. The LX sedan’s sticker read $10,702, hatchback - $11,208 and convertible - $16,767. LX sedans outfitted with the V-8 engine retailed at $13,815; hatchbacks at $14,600, and convertibles - $19,787. GT hatchbacks sold for $15,579 and the GT convertible for $20,409.
