New to Ford... Need Help
Hello all,
I did a search and really couldn't find the answer...
Can you guys/girls help me determine what are (if any) the differences in appearance (ie Body panels, Headlights, air vents, trunk lid, tailights, etc.)
Between 2000-2004 GTs
I noticed that some years have smaller side scoops than others, Not sure if they are interchangeable.
Of the years listed are there any mechanical differences with the engine, or the rear end?
What years should one avoid or be attentive with when looking to buy?
This is my first time with GTs, so I figured ask the ones who know.
Thank You in Advance!

01 and up GTs had the different side scoops and a scoop on the hood, where the 99-00 just had kind of an indention in the hood and scoops. There are also some colors available only specific years. Taillights, I'm pretty sure, were all the same. It seems like in 01, there was a slightly smoked headlight. I could be mistaken. I kind of lost track of options after that year, as I bought a car and wasn't still shopping around. There are some slight interior differences. Someone I know had a 99 V6 convertible, and it was a little different layout than mine. Nothing major, though. There are different spoilers through the years as well.
I'm drawing a blank, but I don't think there's much/any difference performance wise, if you're strictly talking 99-04. I see you say 2000, but I don't know if you mean that year or if you are unaware that the first year of that body was 99.
The side scoops are interchangeable. The previous owner of my 01 put Bullitt side scoops on it. I wanted to put the stock ones back on, but never did. People apparently steal side scoops off people's cars, too.
Browse eBay and look at pictures of varying years. I prefer the 01 and up look.

99 and 2000 have clear headlights, while 2001-up have black housing..
imo 2001 up's look meaner all around. better stock rims (some come with bullitts, some come with 99/01 Cobras), meaner front end (hood/lights) and a more agressive wing..
but if you're going to be modding it, then it dosn't really matter as a lot of those parts are changed out anyway
