Default What year was the Mustang GTO?

What year was the Mustang GTO made? I know it was an SN95, but i can't remember if it was 1995 or 1996. If it was the 1995, was it a modular or pushrod 5.0?

Never knew mustang made a GTO. Pontiac is the only one I've ever know to make a GTO.

...it was a special edition SN95 limited production Mustang GTO! The noticable differences on it from a regular GT was the foglight delete, spoiler delete, and a couple extra's i cant remember. Anyways the reason I'm asking is I want to know whether it has a 5.0 or a 4.6 in it. If it was made in 1995, I'll now it had a 5.0, if it was made in 1996, it has a 4.6L.

There is no GTO. If there is call Ford and find out. Otherwise, here is what I think you're talking about.

"The first, more basic addition was the Mustang GTS. The GTS was basically a stripped down GT, with the performance aspects of the GT, as well as the badging, but there were no fog lights as found on the GT, and no rear GT wing. Also, the interior was similar to that found in the V6 base model with cloth manual seats; although a power driver's seat was an option. The GT gauge cluster was standard on the GTS, but power locks and windows were not. However, if you chose a GTS, you could order any option that was offered for the base model. This trim line offered someone who wanted the grunt of the GT without the cost and options, and this was only offered for the 1995 Ford Mustang."

As it was a 5.0L
