MY 01 looks just like an 03 V6 except it has fog lights, different rims(Which most people with get new rims soon after buying the car) and snake emblems.
Yes, GodStang, that's pretty much exactly what I'm talking about. Like I said b4, I love the newer stangs, ESPECIALLY the '99+ ones, it seems like, in some small ways, Ford just got lazy... maybe not, I dunno.

Hethj7, of the foxes, the only ones that looked almost the same, really were the LX 4-cyl hatch and notch compared to the V8 LX hatch and notch, but still they had a different "presence" and even the V8s had a 5.0 badge on the side, whereas nowadays, they all have the same horse. Also, there were the GTs which were EASILY distinguishable from any other Mustang models during their times (ground effects, spoiler, fogs, etc). Also, all GTs were hatch or verts. This is more of a diff than the GTs todays which are either vert or "notch" (is that correct term?) and the body looks VERY similar to the V6s. Moreover, all GTs had fogs, but LXs didn't.

Crazy Horse GT, hope that deal works out for you with the Falcon. That'd be a cool car to drive.
