Buy a generic ford 4 button remote off ebay for 5 bucks. Go to a dealer and test drive an 04 stang. Then when you get down the street, turn off the car. Turn the key from off to aux. 8 times, then push the button on the remote. After your test drive, go back to the dealer at midnight and unlock the car with the remote. Free mach sound system, free interior,....
Cool Easter egg, huh?

Cool/hidden features? Don't know about 99-03 v6 mustangs, but my 2004 40th anniversary edition came from ford with a GT swaybar. Found out the hard way too, bought a used 04 GT swaybar in the hopes of making my car handle even better, and when i pulled the sway out and compared the two, i saw this:

Identical. Weight, diameter, markings. wasn't happy. So there's a cool little discovery i made,

It was a rental car before I bought it. Hertz then Clif, so IDK how it wound up in there. Might be a manufacturing thing for '04s since they were the changeover year from new edge to S197. But yeah, cool I have that sway already, sucks because I lost money on inadvertantly buying the same swaybar lol
