Default Rumor question

Some poeple have been telling me that the 04 40th anniversary comes with more hp than any other GT. Is this true?? i have heard it from a lot of people, but no one ever gave me a true answer. Also i heard that they come with better suspension

I've never heard that and have seen nothing that supports it. Except for the badges, we are identical to the '03.

Check the Mustangs history on the right side of this page. It says "Mustangs:" and then lists different body styles. Go to the New Edge and read the differences they made year to year. Interesting reading.

40th anniversary package is stripes on the appropriate colors (black, white, and that 40th anni. red) and wheels to match the stripes, inside you'll have floor mats that say "Fortieth anniversary", and little "Fortieth anniversary" plaques around the interior. There's NO performance difference, no suspension difference. The 40th anni. package was just visual, mainly on the exterior.

Right, I forgot to mention the mirrors That's the only other difference I can think of. The 03/04 cobras all have the painted, fold-away mirrors too.
