Minor refinements grace the Mustang models for the year 1991. Convertibles get a tighter boot for their automatic tops, while new star-shaped 16-inch wheels are optional on both GT and LX Mustangs. The 4-cylinder engine is updated with electronic ignition, and horsepower jumps from 88 to 105bhp. Also, a driver’s side air bag is added.
