I've always wanted a New edge Mustang since I was a kid went with a V6 to save on insurance (only $4 per month to add it to my policy) knowing it wouldn't have the power I wanted I took the 3.8 V6 and turned it into a 4.2 V6 marring parts from the f150 V6 swapped over a lot of GT and Bullit parts as well. It now puts out closer to 275hp and can keep up with my 2003 Subaru WRX on the track. It is defiantly a great platform to build a cheap track day car.
Things I hate about my 03 SVT Cobra......nothing....it does everything that I want it to...and after owning it for almost 18 years...I’ve come to know all of its idiosyncrasies...just a blast to drive...while everyone else was trading theirs in for the latest greatest...not me...I knew it was something special when I bought it...so I will never get tired of it....
Your very right I own a 97 Gt and when it came out it was a fun quick not fast but quick car. I always thought it was until I bought a Mach 1 then I realized how slow it was. But in the late 99 - 00 era it was a cool car and it still is just needs a coyote swap. Honestly sn95 and always the new edge will be my favorite Mustang
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage I almost bought a 03 terminator here in PEI it only had 18000kms on or 10000 miles whatever you like it was an original Canadian car silver this guy had a bunch of Mustangs and when I went to see it he invited me into his house to see it( not in the garage ) .... Smach right in his living room was I ever surprised lol was the first terminator I ever saw. I himd and hond about buying it. He wanted it to go to a good home so I had to prove I had a garage whatnot. Only thing was it was a convertible. Original tires ... Pretty much a brand new termi for about 30 grand US.

I really enjoy my 2000 GT. Has 4.10 gears, Moroso rear axles, BC coilovers, tubular front a arms and rear arms. Brake kit upgrades, BBK intake, long tubes, X pipe, aftermarket coils, and 315s in the back, such a fun car and pretty peppy!

What’s wrong with your door panel? My door panels and my interior in general is mint. But both my 07 3v’s had peeling door panels. Not tryna be a dick/smartass, I’m genuinely curious just in case I run into problems in the future.
Do you know I was starting to think that I was one of the few people that actually love the new edge mustang yeah I know it’s not the most powerful thing in the world but it’s a sporty car, it’s not a status symbol, it’s not a race car It’s a commuter car that’s designed to carry two adults and maybe two small kids or get you groceries and or get you around town or to work etc. but people are screwing up the mustang by expecting it to be more exotic sports car like because I’ll tell you one thing that my car can do that a Porsche or a Ferrari or a Lamborghini cannot do fit into my budget or I can Park it anywhere at the mall and not worry about it or I can afford the insurance on it or you can get parts for it anywhere and I never have to hear if you can afford this car you can afford the repair bill Big shot!
I enjoy that I can maintain my Mustangs on my own with simple tools. The terminator put the mustang on the performance map and many with corvettes and higher end cars have taken note. Otherwise they are nice commuter cars and fun sports cars for sure
I have a 2004 GT with a rebuild transmission with shift kit, 373 rear end, full top end and 93 octane tune. For street it does awesome but it is no hi-performance machine. I do love that it can move when needed buy it definitely can't be competitive against the newer muscle cars. Easy to work on and parts are plentiful. Door panel leather is pealing, only issue with the interior For a Florida car it's entire life the leather seats have held up well! I give the car a 7 out of 10. It needs paint bad(there was a recall on certain paint codes, Oxford White was one of them).
The door panels broke on my 00' GT Spring Edition several times! The motor was definitely a hoss, 275k miles and still cranked up after several wrecks!! I daily drove it 45 minutes to work and raced it on the weekends!
The 4.6L 2 valve is one of the best engines Ford has ever made, not including the older pushrod engines like the 351 Windsor. I have one in my 2003 Mercury Grand Marquis transportation car, bought with 49K miles, now has 273K miles with no problems other than a bad alternator. These are cop car engines, and they are built to last. The 32 valve may make more power, but they are a lot more fragile with a lot more to go wrong.

Hi Danny, like your channel. I've recently bought a 2000 Mustang Coupe V6/AT in Silver Metallic code YN and has 50949 miles. I'm the second owner and have the complete history with the car and the maintenance records from the previous owner. I also own a 1981 Fox-Mustang Hatchback with L6/AT in Medium Blue Metallic Glow and has 27395 miles and had being parked in 2010 till it was put on sale in 2017. Both cars are unmolested original exports and sold true a well known car dealer called Hessing (no longer in business) in The Netherlands. If you like i can send a personal message with photos. Keep up the channel and don't forget the V6's... Greetings and have a nice day, ERIK.
Aye guys I hate that shit too just unbolt the seat belt at the top Allen key you know where it get jammed and put a washer in so it doesn't move at all and it will work like better than new promise
@@johnhenderson9328 an Allen key where it gets jammed? Like in the plastic loop piece with the slit? Only thing that gives mine a hard time retract is the ford racing seat belt cover thing that only lets it re tract so much. I usually have to slide it down and let the belt all the way up. I don’t like when it dangles a little on the floor lol
My big complaint is the front seats, I wish they were lower in the car and more like the 05 + seats. My 03 Mach1 passenger seat is like new but the driver seat needs to be fixed. It has some rips in the bolster as they all do. Great info on this video. Thanks Danny!👍
Have 02 white 5 speed gt 76000 miles. Interior is perfect outside perfect sve wheels lowered full exhaust every performance mod besides turbo or supercharger. Only thing that pisses me off is the wheel hop and the parking brake button rattles like hell. Black duck tape fixed that problem temporarily til I can try to find a new one. Don’t want a cover want the whole parking brake assembly. Good videos 🤘🏼
I just bought my first car a few months ago and it’s a silver and black 2001 mustang base and this video is actually extremely helpful on things I wanna customize and change bc of fords small faults
Man my worst pet peeve is that one day my friend removed the shifter Colunm to check what shifter I had and once he put it back in the colunm never lined up straight again lol
I still own my mustang since I bought it new in 1998 and that you hit the nail on the head with center console. Man what a stupid design. After years of opening and closing it finally broke, and I upgraded to the 01 design and I took it a step further by grinding off the clip. Not to mention the two previous idiot designs with the first cup holder in the way of the shifter. Another thing, I don’t know why Ford insisted in having a super long antenna and not a shorter style one from factory. I also eliminated by having the body shop shave it and STILL get great signal. Great video! 🤙🏼
I’m glad you enjoyed the video! And I hated the cup holder on my 98 Cobra lol. Here are more vids like this one ua-cam.com/play/PLIjr-uSYDZi5Kwoue3b-_M_qWpQbiQ-KX.html
@@SpinningWhiskey i could care less about the features lol really the only thing i feel like im missing out on is the heated seats😂 and the stock sound system is better in the accord but i mean the sound of the v8 more than makes up for that in my opinion. Plus i installed 2 12” speakers so now my car sounds 100x better. The Mustang just has so much more potential than the accord, also I can never drive my mustang without getting compliments whereas with my accord I never even got a compliment lmao. Im much happier in my mustang but the 03 accord wasnt a bad car at all. Youre entitled to your opinion tho
Hi Danny, Great video. I just bought a 2001 Mustang Cobra Convertible in Australia. Its done 224,000 kms which is about 139,000 miles. Some of my friends tried to talk me out of it because of issues with timing chainds/ guides etc but the car has had a life of doing a lot a long highway miles around australia and it has beeen well maintained from what i see. Anyhow, I haven't received it yet as a friend of mine picked it up in another state yesterday. Can't wait to fly up and drive it home about 600 miles and see how it goes. Will look out for some of the issues you highlight here and will be looking at more of your videos to learn more about these cars. Cheers! Sam
Congrats! They are solid cars. If we’ll maintained it shouldn’t be too bad. Maybe some independent rear suspension components, but I have some friends down under (there) and they really enjoy the car. Congrats! Let me know if you run into any issues. I have videos for just about anything you’d ever need. I’ll put a playlist below
you can fix that bumper wave with a firm push down on the passenger side. It should snap back into place and align a bit nicer. had this same issue on pretty much ever new edge i've owned
Got an 04 GT anniversary edition.. somehow got it this year in almost mint condition. door panel same as the other 6 GTS before it.. lowered to fix gaps..
Thanks for the info I’ve been looking into a weekend/project car and they seem to be perfect as they’re reliable and easy to work on and the nice ones are still affordable! All of the other American sports cars from this time period have expensive pricey!
Those Typhoon intake had alot of potential. I'll take an 03 or 04 GT with every bolt on and get every suspension piece from maximum motorsports and go autocross.
Ahhh, I'm about to be on my 4th mustang gt build. It will be the second build to break over 400hp with stock internals. The 2v loves boost. Get a 2v gt, centrifugal supercharger, intercooler, run a few pounds of boost and you're good. Obviously, open the exhaust as well. But these are great cars. I love them.
Just bought a 04 mach 1, cars low miles @14k.I've still got to do a few bits regarding rubber rot. But for a 20 year old car I can't fault it. Even though I've got to order all my parts from you guys in the states, that's no hassle either.
Not everybody who buys a Mustang wants a performance car. I bought a completely stock 2003 V6/auto in Zinc Yellow, with an optional spoiler, beautiful condition, a 9 1/2 out of 10, 68K miles, mostly because I just wanted a 2 door rear wheel drive American car with a solid rear axle. Those are almost impossible to find without going back to the '70s, and I didn't want an unreliable project car. It certainly didn't hurt that it looked great, my neighbor has a very late model Subaru BRZ, and I think my 2003 Mustang looks a lot better. Mine has the open rear end (I don't do burnouts in it) with the 2:73 ratio, which is great for cruising down the highway at 1500 rpm. Makes for a long lasting under stressed engine and great mpg. It did come with 16" wheels and new tires, but I have located a set of 15" wheels from a 1999 model, and when the tires wear out I will be installing those on it so I can have wider sidewalls. I may even be able to find RWL 15" tires to fit.
I had a V6 as well and you’re right. Long lasting, non-stressed engine. I even dubbed the V6 as a real terminator if you want to see my video ua-cam.com/video/0lxf6mFjgzo/v-deo.html
Working on modding my 2nd '99 Cobra. You must replace the seats if you are building a curve-killer. There is very little bolster to hold your butt and back square in the seat.
Those old 4.6 2Vs with 260hp and 302lb ft of torque get too much hate. They are one of the most reliable engines Ford ever made, there are literally parts available everywhere for them, they werent really that underpowered for the time period and they can be built to 300+whp engines reliably that's in a 3200lb car. I've owned 4 new edge cars....a 2000v6, 01, gt, 04gt, and 03 cobra, and they are easily my favorite mustangs out of the newer model years, and more importantly they NEVER left me stranded and hurt some feelings back in the day as well. I had 473whp and 464wtq in my cobra with just a pulley swap, intake, exhaust and tune, and my 01 gt made 307whp and 334wtq with full bolt ons, exhaust and tune, and had 4.10 gears in it. Took the back seats out and a few other weight reduction things. It would slap my stepbrothers 98 z28 from a dig and a roll, but his car was also a stock auto and mine had those mods and was a 5 speed manual. Wish I could find a low mileage 99-04 gt right now with under 50k miles
I had a 2003 GT and the only thing that I didn’t care for was the fake hood scoop. Too bad I found out about the Mach 1 after I bought the GT. I later bought a new 2006 Mustang GT and loved it. My son has it now and I’m on to a 2018 GT, but someday would love to get an 03 Mach 1 in azure blue!
Yeah, my 92 CV 4.6 is leaking into the rear passenger sparkplug hole. As long as I keep the level low in the overflow, I'm good for now. I eventually would like to transfer the engine to a v6 mustang after a refresh and some performance parts.
My 04 developed camshaft phaser noise....likely 1st owner oil maint? But engine was real clean. Now I have a 99 Cobra, pristine 2 owner, spotless underneath, except someone swapped out 3:27s for 4:11.. It got the upgrade back in 2000, but guess it still wasn't up to expectations. Has roughly 15,000 miles!!! I don't care about the speed, I want my hi-way mileage back. Bought OEM ring and pinion from Ford. Thanks for the videos!!!
You make this look very straightforward, but I think I'm gonna trust my friendly mechanic to do it. I'm not as young as you are! thanks for the links tho
Hey Danny, it’s been a while, but the next time you wanna open that center console, make sure it’s opened from the front. Rest your forearm and relax it as normal, put fingers directly in the front, and pull it open as if you were opening a book that’s resting on a big laz-e boy arm rest. It just makes more sense and opens as intended, I used to open it that way on my GT and low and behold it came off, 3 years later it’s curved and disformed. Now with some moisturizing of the foam and some elbow grease for the original fit and it’s holding up just as it did from factory. That’s when the enlightenment of the correct way to open it came about haha
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage I totally understand, ain’t easy multitasking while looking somewhat sane to others while speaking to a camera lol keep up the content brother. Quick off-topic question, what video editing software do you use? I have a key for a Sony Vegas Pro I’m looking around for and thought I’d get it to ya
Bought a 2000 black gt march 2019, 25 k original on the clock. A few flaws here and there.....got rid of the second set of tires it had....245 45 17s, installed 255 55 17s....what a difference! Drives like a dream now. What is normal oil usage for the 4.6?
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage Yeah that's what I thought . I worked during 04 and 05 at Dollar Thrifty U Drive . The 04 Mustang Gt felt awkward . In my opinion the 05 fixed that issue and was considerably quicker .
I don't love the 1994-2004 interior but I have found that some billet accessories go a long way to break up all of that 90's plastic. With all the billet, my only real complaint for my 2003 Cobra is the ugly giant airbag. Would love a much smaller and round airbag like 2005+ Mustangs. NOTHING dates the car as bad as that 1994 airbag. I'm not going to sacrifice my safety for a little bit better looking aftermarket wheel with no airbag. I will probably go for a carbon fiber rim eventually which will help with the appearance a bit.
Just bought a 2001 DHG BULLITT....love it so far. Has 4.10s and is a great driver with 90K and blemishes...like you said for the year it was built it is nice....sounds super mean with the better exhaust and intake. I am wondering about your plastic intake comments on the GT intake. Does the BULLITT intake have the plastic too? Haven't looked yet.
I own a 2003 Mach 1. My only problem has been the A/C . Sometimes it throws cold air and in other occasions it throws it warm. That's the only mayor problem. Otherwise it has been a great pony.
There is a control module behind the passenger side fender liner that has the solenoid for the compressor clutch - super easy to change once you get the fender liner off. The solenoid goes bad over time, working occasionally like after you hit a bump, then stops working altogether. BSE Reman Relay - Control Module RCM55M. (That is the part for 2001 V6, I would imagine they are all the same)
I have an 89 notch , 92 hatch and an 03 GT convertible manual. All great cars . I want to lower the 03 and do gears . I have never done a rear end in all my 45 years of mechanical work
Last year I bought a 2003 Mustang GT from a shady dealer. It has a full Bassani exhaust and Hurst shifter, 106,000 miles.. The car has had a couple of mystery misfires and I had to put $700 to get it tuned correctly for the bolt ons [previous owner did not tune].. Driving it on Thanksgiving I blew a sparkplug and come to find I can't do the helicoil patch it has already been done and with the wrong kit.. I have it at the best race shop in my area right now and I need a new head. They quoted me around $3000-$4000USD.. I don't want to lose my dream car but I want to know if it is worth fixing.. Thanks
Honestly, get a crown Vic engine for $600 and put it in. Get an engine picker and a few friends and you can do it. I have a full step by step on removing it and all the videos you’ll need once it’s back in and you add coolant etc
I got a 2001 base model with 3.8 v6. It has 246000 miles on the motor. I live in California. What would be the best v8 to swap into it that I won't have to mortgage the house to do.
this is a lot of help, i plan to get one this summer 2021 after i graduate and all this is perfect to know, ill definitely be looking at your other videos once i get one cuz i dont plan on leaving it stock for long lol
Any idea what a garage kept perfect condition 2004 gt with 22,000mls is worth in todays market? 5 speed manual, Cobra/Sallen upgrade package from dealer which includes cobra tires/wheels, Sallen spoiler, black racing stripes over Performance Red paint. Lowering springs, upgraded pulleys, K&N CAI. Brand new Michelin all season high performance tires.
When I swapped my El Camino I redid the dash on it using truck bed coating. Might be doing the entire plastic trim the same way to change it black and make it look and feel like new.
I have a 00 GT 4.6L manual. Recently the transmission was swapped, now it shutters/shakes a lot in reverse and some in putting into 1st gear. What could be my issue?
@@Ed-yj4ho It’s normal with a new clutch to have “clutch chatter” as the clutch is released- usually it’s pretty bad in reverse, 1st, 2nd, and not so bad in 3rd, 4th, and 5th. If it doesn’t go away after awhile it should be looked at- but if you had a shop do the work let them see it soon so they don’t say it’s out of their warranty window. What brand of clutch?
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage brand not sure local shop did the work and they gave me 3 months warranty. I hv only been driving it for probably less than 800 miles after the work.
I just got a 2004 GT. Has anyone had problems with moisture inside on the backglass and side windows? I replaced the weather stripping on the passenger's side and that's helped a bit, I'm about to do the driver's side. Hopefully that will seal it up. The trunk seems high on one side and might not be sealing on the gasket all the way.
I've had 4 new edge mustangs. Currently have a 2004 GT manual. I love the car but hate the clutch. Very hard to push down and engages only 1" from the floor. Did it both with this 93000 mile one and an earlier 2000 with 33000 miles. Will the new quadrant help?
The quadrant will help with some of it, but the stiffness may be the diaphragm fingers of the pressure plate on that specific clutch, or even a worn retainer sleeve. The pivot ball will also play into the engagement points ua-cam.com/video/RkEn5FJHs8g/v-deo.html
After 20+ years my 01 Cobra has been incredibly fun and comfortable to drive. With our bad Pa roads the clearance is needed, especially when you get it airborne, like me It's very warm in cold winters. The dealer broke my door pull when they fixed the power window The only thing that ever broke was a connecting rod Anybody have a spare motor?
It’s fine if it has been well-maintained. Make sure it does not run low on oil. Here is my playlist for maintaining it ua-cam.com/play/PLIjr-uSYDZi7hBrphoRniyYjb707PpPTu.html
Now I feel bad that I own a 2002 GT. If I were still a 20-something I'd consider getting a faster car or supercharging the 02 or doing a coyote swap. From your review I take it that the 4.6 won't hold up too well with a supercharger. So, what's your take on doing the coyote swap? I'd like to lower the body but that looks like it'll cost a "few" bucks. But my 02 still turns heads. A higher gear ratio would be nice too.
I have a GT myself. Yes, you’ll need an engine rebuild with stronger rods to hold more than 450rwhp which is what a new 5.0 easily makes. As for me, I use my GT as a great sounding daily and Leave the performance to the terminator. I would consider a Coyote swap somewhere down the line or just enjoy it as a reliable great sounding car as I do

Love all your videos you've helped me through alot with my 04 GT keep up the good work. Your brother has made a video on my car which was an HONOR
First car was an 04 gt. At 16 with no mechanical know how, it was such a great and simple car to work on. I to this day miss that thing
I love new edges. I owned a 2001 GT that I wrecked. I now have an 03 cobra. My favorite body style.
Just sub'd bro, keep that "new edge" content rolling(literally)👍🏾
Very nice collection! Best looking mustang ever made imo
All really good points. The difference of the Terminator rods VS the run of the mill rods ford used is amazing. I screen shot that to post it to FB later lol
Wow 9:20 beautiful shot! You make me want to drive my 03 cobra more often haha Ima take it out for a spin tomorrow
Hi Danny, like your channel. I've recently bought a 2000 Mustang Coupe V6/AT in Silver Metallic code YN and has 50949 miles. I'm the second owner and have the complete history with the car and the maintenance records from the previous owner. I also own a 1981 Fox-Mustang Hatchback with L6/AT in Medium Blue Metallic Glow and has 27395 miles and had being parked in 2010 till it was put on sale in 2017. Both cars are unmolested original exports and sold true a well known car dealer called Hessing (no longer in business) in The Netherlands. If you like i can send a personal message with photos. Keep up the channel and don't forget the V6's... Greetings and have a nice day, ERIK.
One other thing I hate is how the seatbelts retract, my gt and cobra have the same problem
Bro I have to beat my cars ass to get the seatbelts to retract, I feel you🤙
Aye guys I hate that shit too just unbolt the seat belt at the top Allen key you know where it get jammed and put a washer in so it doesn't move at all and it will work like better than new promise
@@johnhenderson9328 is just put 5 points in like I'm planning to do 😁
@@johnhenderson9328 an Allen key where it gets jammed? Like in the plastic loop piece with the slit?
Only thing that gives mine a hard time retract is the ford racing seat belt cover thing that only lets it re tract so much. I usually have to slide it down and let the belt all the way up. I don’t like when it dangles a little on the floor lol
My big complaint is the front seats, I wish they were lower in the car and more like the 05 + seats. My 03 Mach1 passenger seat is like new but the driver seat needs to be fixed. It has some rips in the bolster as they all do. Great info on this video. Thanks Danny!👍
Love the seats in the 2001 BULLITT....everyone the sits in them compliments the seats. It has the vertical stitching and looks old school.
My 03 Cobra sits low 🤷🏼♂️ and it’s adjustable
Have 02 white 5 speed gt 76000 miles. Interior is perfect outside perfect sve wheels lowered full exhaust every performance mod besides turbo or supercharger. Only thing that pisses me off is the wheel hop and the parking brake button rattles like hell. Black duck tape fixed that problem temporarily til I can try to find a new one. Don’t want a cover want the whole parking brake assembly. Good videos 🤘🏼
I just bought my first car a few months ago and it’s a silver and black 2001 mustang base and this video is actually extremely helpful on things I wanna customize and change bc of fords small faults

@@dannyjohnsonsgarage ty so much!!
Man my worst pet peeve is that one day my friend removed the shifter Colunm to check what shifter I had and once he put it back in the colunm never lined up straight again lol
I still own my mustang since I bought it new in 1998 and that you hit the nail on the head with center console. Man what a stupid design. After years of opening and closing it finally broke, and I upgraded to the 01 design and I took it a step further by grinding off the clip. Not to mention the two previous idiot designs with the first cup holder in the way of the shifter. Another thing, I don’t know why Ford insisted in having a super long antenna and not a shorter style one from factory. I also eliminated by having the body shop shave it and STILL get great signal. Great video! 🤙🏼
I’m glad you enjoyed the video! And I hated the cup holder on my 98 Cobra lol. Here are more vids like this one ua-cam.com/play/PLIjr-uSYDZi5Kwoue3b-_M_qWpQbiQ-KX.html
I cant wait to get out of my old accord and get into a new edge
I went from a 02 accord coupe that I love to a 04 mustang and wish I never did lol the accord had so many more features
@@SpinningWhiskey i could care less about the features lol really the only thing i feel like im missing out on is the heated seats😂 and the stock sound system is better in the accord but i mean the sound of the v8 more than makes up for that in my opinion. Plus i installed 2 12” speakers so now my car sounds 100x better. The Mustang just has so much more potential than the accord, also I can never drive my mustang without getting compliments whereas with my accord I never even got a compliment lmao. Im much happier in my mustang but the 03 accord wasnt a bad car at all. Youre entitled to your opinion tho
@@ghettomechanicllc3070 I liked the 02 accord coupes body style more, but I got a 2010 camaro ss now

Love your collection. I do have a 99 GT that I pulled out of a guy's yard. And has been working on. Thanks for you input and advice.
Hi Danny, Great video. I just bought a 2001 Mustang Cobra Convertible in Australia. Its done 224,000 kms which is about 139,000 miles. Some of my friends tried to talk me out of it because of issues with timing chainds/ guides etc but the car has had a life of doing a lot a long highway miles around australia and it has beeen well maintained from what i see. Anyhow, I haven't received it yet as a friend of mine picked it up in another state yesterday. Can't wait to fly up and drive it home about 600 miles and see how it goes. Will look out for some of the issues you highlight here and will be looking at more of your videos to learn more about these cars. Cheers! Sam
Congrats! They are solid cars. If we’ll maintained it shouldn’t be too bad. Maybe some independent rear suspension components, but I have some friends down under (there) and they really enjoy the car. Congrats! Let me know if you run into any issues. I have videos for just about anything you’d ever need. I’ll put a playlist below

@@xygtho3 did you get the cobra yet?? How is it??
@@NewEdgeDesigns I pick it up tomorrow 😊
you can fix that bumper wave with a firm push down on the passenger side. It should snap back into place and align a bit nicer. had this same issue on pretty much ever new edge i've owned
A friend of mine went to the trouble to remove the bumper and had some flat bar underneath. Someday I’ll probably make a video on it
Got an 04 GT anniversary edition.. somehow got it this year in almost mint condition. door panel same as the other 6 GTS before it.. lowered to fix gaps..
Thanks for the info I’ve been looking into a weekend/project car and they seem to be perfect as they’re reliable and easy to work on and the nice ones are still affordable! All of the other American sports cars from this time period have expensive pricey!
I was blown away when the 99 came out, i liked how they kept the mustang look but made it look more muscular
Those Typhoon intake had alot of potential. I'll take an 03 or 04 GT with every bolt on and get every suspension piece from maximum motorsports and go autocross.
They are an affordable platform for sure. I like my GT a lot and my brother also has a GT he supercharged
Danny, you have no idea how much I love to hear you talk about my car ('03 GT, 5 speed) whether good, or bad! Keep up the good work!
03 was a great year for the GT 👍🏼
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage Its teriffic. Been pretty unreliable, but still a blast to drive. Would you recomend me getting a muffler delete?
Ahhh, I'm about to be on my 4th mustang gt build. It will be the second build to break over 400hp with stock internals. The 2v loves boost. Get a 2v gt, centrifugal supercharger, intercooler, run a few pounds of boost and you're good. Obviously, open the exhaust as well. But these are great cars. I love them.
Super helpful thinking of getting one as my first car
I got mine with 32,000 miles. One time I went to pull the door closed, the entire panel came off.
😯
Lol
I love my 2004 Limited Edition 40th Anniversary GT. Yeah she is Old School but love her none the less.
Just bought a 04 mach 1, cars low miles @14k.I've still got to do a few bits regarding rubber rot. But for a 20 year old car I can't fault it. Even though I've got to order all my parts from you guys in the states, that's no hassle either.

Not everybody who buys a Mustang wants a performance car. I bought a completely stock 2003 V6/auto in Zinc Yellow, with an optional spoiler, beautiful condition, a 9 1/2 out of 10, 68K miles, mostly because I just wanted a 2 door rear wheel drive American car with a solid rear axle. Those are almost impossible to find without going back to the '70s, and I didn't want an unreliable project car. It certainly didn't hurt that it looked great, my neighbor has a very late model Subaru BRZ, and I think my 2003 Mustang looks a lot better. Mine has the open rear end (I don't do burnouts in it) with the 2:73 ratio, which is great for cruising down the highway at 1500 rpm. Makes for a long lasting under stressed engine and great mpg. It did come with 16" wheels and new tires, but I have located a set of 15" wheels from a 1999 model, and when the tires wear out I will be installing those on it so I can have wider sidewalls. I may even be able to find RWL 15" tires to fit.
I had a V6 as well and you’re right. Long lasting, non-stressed engine. I even dubbed the V6 as a real terminator if you want to see my video ua-cam.com/video/0lxf6mFjgzo/v-deo.html
I bought me a 01 cobra.. 106k miles.. love every bit of it.
I have an 03 200+ miles but still hooks up like a beast
I do appreciate this video I just bought one so everything I'm learning about cars starts off with my 2000 mustang babies as old as

@@dannyjohnsonsgarage thank you 😌
I have my 2002 Ford mustang v6 3.8 and I love it. Thank you for the video.
Great cars for what they are. I had a 97 V6 and so it left more to be desired on performance, but a fantastic first car
I love my 1999 Mustang GT in Crystal White. I would love to get a 2004 Cobra. I’ve seen a few Mach 1s but I rather use that money for a Cobra.
I have a crystal white front bumper on my oxford white 01 GT you see in the video 😉
Working on modding my 2nd '99 Cobra. You must replace the seats if you are building a curve-killer. There is very little bolster to hold your butt and back square in the seat.
I love your New Edge Mustang videos. Which differential gear ratio do you think should have come in the 2001 Cobra?
3.55 should have been stock in my opinion
Yea your right , I have a 2001 Cobra SVT , had to retire my car as a Daly driver now I can get up grades on a make it faster .
Those old 4.6 2Vs with 260hp and 302lb ft of torque get too much hate. They are one of the most reliable engines Ford ever made, there are literally parts available everywhere for them, they werent really that underpowered for the time period and they can be built to 300+whp engines reliably that's in a 3200lb car. I've owned 4 new edge cars....a 2000v6, 01, gt, 04gt, and 03 cobra, and they are easily my favorite mustangs out of the newer model years, and more importantly they NEVER left me stranded and hurt some feelings back in the day as well. I had 473whp and 464wtq in my cobra with just a pulley swap, intake, exhaust and tune, and my 01 gt made 307whp and 334wtq with full bolt ons, exhaust and tune, and had 4.10 gears in it. Took the back seats out and a few other weight reduction things. It would slap my stepbrothers 98 z28 from a dig and a roll, but his car was also a stock auto and mine had those mods and was a 5 speed manual. Wish I could find a low mileage 99-04 gt right now with under 50k miles
I daily my GT and it’s a very reliable car. Other than the intake manifold, they are bullet proof. I completely agree
@@dannyjohnsonsgaragesame here brother! I have three and the only hard part is choosing which one to drive for the day! Ha
I had a 2003 GT and the only thing that I didn’t care for was the fake hood scoop. Too bad I found out about the Mach 1 after I bought the GT. I later bought a new 2006 Mustang GT and loved it. My son has it now and I’m on to a 2018 GT, but someday would love to get an 03 Mach 1 in azure blue!
Although fake, I love the big hood scoop and side scoops from 01-04
@@dannyjohnsonsgarageagree Danny! Makes the car look so much more aggressive!! I’ve always loved those scoops!
Just found a 2000 Gt for $3.5 K only 77 thousand miles 😁, going on a test drive tomorrow
Update, I bought it 😎😎
Yeah, my 92 CV 4.6 is leaking into the rear passenger sparkplug hole. As long as I keep the level low in the overflow, I'm good for now. I eventually would like to transfer the engine to a v6 mustang after a refresh and some performance parts.
My 04 developed camshaft phaser noise....likely 1st owner oil maint? But engine was real clean. Now I have a 99 Cobra, pristine 2 owner, spotless underneath, except someone swapped out 3:27s for 4:11.. It got the upgrade back in 2000, but guess it still wasn't up to expectations. Has roughly 15,000 miles!!! I don't care about the speed, I want my hi-way mileage back. Bought OEM ring and pinion from Ford. Thanks for the videos!!!

My door panels that you said crack and come loose, mine are still in tact and original.
Hey Danny, it’s been a while, but the next time you wanna open that center console, make sure it’s opened from the front. Rest your forearm and relax it as normal, put fingers directly in the front, and pull it open as if you were opening a book that’s resting on a big laz-e boy arm rest. It just makes more sense and opens as intended, I used to open it that way on my GT and low and behold it came off, 3 years later it’s curved and disformed. Now with some moisturizing of the foam and some elbow grease for the original fit and it’s holding up just as it did from factory. That’s when the enlightenment of the correct way to open it came about haha
I usually have it popped and not even closed- and opened it this way just because I only had one hand free while video taping
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage I totally understand, ain’t easy multitasking while looking somewhat sane to others while speaking to a camera lol keep up the content brother.

I don’t notice any excessive burning consumption, but maybe a quart would be normal
That's why my V6 Mustang the 1st thing I did was put a dual exhaust. And another thing that I added was Fog lights.
I just love my 04 Mustang GT convertible
I drove a few of these with the auto . The engines were punchy but not overwhelming . But I found the shifter positioning really odd .
Even with long arms its pretty hard to reach
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage Yeah that's what I thought . I worked during 04 and 05 at Dollar Thrifty U Drive . The 04 Mustang Gt felt awkward . In my opinion the 05 fixed that issue and was considerably quicker .
The good ol new edge. The only way to quiet down the rattling interior is to make the exhaust louder 😂
Heck yeah! And the radio lol
Got my eyes on a GT series of this era myself
I don't love the 1994-2004 interior but I have found that some billet accessories go a long way to break up all of that 90's plastic. With all the billet, my only real complaint for my 2003 Cobra is the ugly giant airbag. Would love a much smaller and round airbag like 2005+ Mustangs. NOTHING dates the car as bad as that 1994 airbag. I'm not going to sacrifice my safety for a little bit better looking aftermarket wheel with no airbag. I will probably go for a carbon fiber rim eventually which will help with the appearance a bit.
I grew up with the same steering wheel in my 97 V6 Mustang, so I’m probably just used to it
I appreciate the video. Gave some insight for me. Wanting to purchase a new edge GT. Coming from the turbocharged 4banger culture haha.
Just bought a 2001 DHG BULLITT....love it so far. Has 4.10s and is a great driver with 90K and blemishes...like you said for the year it was built it is nice....sounds super mean with the better exhaust and intake. I am wondering about your plastic intake comments on the GT intake. Does the BULLITT intake have the plastic too? Haven't looked yet.
No, the Bullitt has the really cool aluminum I take, so it won’t crack. Here is my bothers ua-cam.com/video/fiswpQXicZw/v-deo.html

My complaint is that somewhere in the headliner is a small rattle that goes away only when I put my hand on it
You know though, even my friends brand new GTR has a rattle right by your head when driving lol
I own a 2003 Mach 1. My only problem has been the A/C . Sometimes it throws cold air and in other occasions it throws it warm. That's the only mayor problem. Otherwise it has been a great pony.
I love mine
There is a control module behind the passenger side fender liner that has the solenoid for the compressor clutch - super easy to change once you get the fender liner off. The solenoid goes bad over time, working occasionally like after you hit a bump, then stops working altogether. BSE Reman Relay - Control Module RCM55M.

Last year I bought a 2003 Mustang GT from a shady dealer. It has a full Bassani exhaust and Hurst shifter, 106,000 miles.. The car has had a couple of mystery misfires and I had to put $700 to get it tuned correctly for the bolt ons [previous owner did not tune]..
Driving it on Thanksgiving I blew a sparkplug and come to find I can't do the helicoil patch it has already been done and with the wrong kit.. I have it at the best race shop in my area right now and I need a new head. They quoted me around $3000-$4000USD.. I don't want to lose my dream car but I want to know if it is worth fixing..

Does it shake as you let the clutch out or when the cultch is out and it’s driving in those gears?
It shakes as I’m letting off the clutch. Seems like once I press down on the clutch it doesn’t shake/vibrate/shudder
@@Ed-yj4ho It’s normal with a new clutch to have “clutch chatter” as the clutch is released- usually it’s pretty bad in reverse, 1st, 2nd, and not so bad in 3rd, 4th, and 5th. If it doesn’t go away after awhile it should be looked at- but if you had a shop do the work let them see it soon so they don’t say it’s out of their warranty window. What brand of clutch?
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage brand not sure local shop did the work and they gave me 3 months warranty. I hv only been driving it for probably less than 800 miles after the work.
Velcro tape works wonders on the door pulls.
ive always hated the stock ride hide lol.
The gap is horrible compared especially to the European or japanese cars
Everyone wants to lower the suspension. I get the look and all that jazz, but my last gt was always scraping on speed bumps and wouldn’t do it again.
3:30 True but those other motors NEVER sounded as good as the 2 valve can. I'm obsessed with the sound.
I just got a 2004 GT. Has anyone had problems with moisture inside on the backglass and side windows? I replaced the weather stripping on the passenger's side and that's helped a bit, I'm about to do the driver's side. Hopefully that will seal it up. The trunk seems high on one side and might not be sealing on the gasket all the way.

The quadrant will help with some of it, but the stiffness may be the diaphragm fingers of the pressure plate on that specific clutch, or even a worn retainer sleeve. The pivot ball will also play into the engagement points ua-cam.com/video/RkEn5FJHs8g/v-deo.html

Now I feel bad that I own a 2002 GT. If I were still a 20-something I'd consider getting a faster car or supercharging the 02 or doing a coyote swap. From your review I take it that the 4.6 won't hold up too well with a supercharger. So, what's your take on doing the coyote swap? I'd like to lower the body but that looks like it'll cost a "few" bucks. But my 02 still turns heads. A higher gear ratio would be nice too.
I have a GT myself. Yes, you’ll need an engine rebuild with stronger rods to hold more than 450rwhp which is what a new 5.0 easily makes. As for me, I use my GT as a great sounding daily and Leave the performance to the terminator.
I would consider a Coyote swap somewhere down the line or just enjoy it as a reliable great sounding car as I do
