2004 Ford Mustang GT Deluxe Coupe RWD

2004 Ford Mustang GT Coupe †Screaming Yellow, 4,976 Actual Miles, 5-Speed Manual Why This Car Is Special The fourth-generation Ford Mustang ran from 1994 through 2004, and the 2004 model year holds a specific place in that timeline. It was the final year of the SN-95 platform before Ford replaced the entire lineup with the retro-styled S197 in 2005. That transition made the last of the Fox-4 body Mustangs something of an afterthought at the time, but two decades later, low-mile examples of the 2004 Ford Mustang GT are getting harder to find and harder to ignore. This particular 2004 Ford Mustang GT coupe has covered just 4,976 actual miles in twenty-plus years. That number puts it in a category that has nothing to do with restoration †this is a car that was simply not driven. The Screaming Yellow paint, the dark charcoal interior, the undercarriage, and the drivetrain are all in the condition they left the Dearborn Assembly Plant. There is no story to unwind here, no previous damage to disclose, no wear to explain away. The mileage speaks plainly. The 2004 model year was also the 40th anniversary of the Mustang, and Ford offered a special 40th Anniversary package that year. The VIN on this car decodes to a standard GT coupe built at Dearborn, not the Anniversary package, which actually works in its favor for buyers who want a clean, honest GT without the commemorative badging adding noise to the story. What you get instead is a well-optioned Mustang GT with the hood scoop, the side stripes, the dual exhaust, and the Mach 1-style wheels †a car that looks the part without needing a special edition label to justify it. Features List - 4.6L 2-valve Modular V8 - Tremec 5-speed manual transmission - Screaming Yellow exterior - Dark Charcoal vinyl interior - 4,976 actual miles - GT functional-style hood scoop - Side body stripes - Dual exhaust with rear fascia cutouts - Power windows and power door locks - Mach 1-style 17-inch aluminum wheels - Sport bucket seats - Pony interior badging - Clean, dry undercarriage Mechanical The 4.6-liter two-valve Modular V8 was the standard engine for the 2004 Ford Mustang GT, rated at 260 horsepower and 302 lb-ft of torque from the factory. Ford introduced this engine family to the Mustang in 1996 as a replacement for the pushrod 5.0, and by 2004 it was a proven, well-understood platform. The two-valve version has a reputation for durability when maintained properly, and at under 5,000 miles, this engine has barely been broken in. The timing chain, seals, gaskets, and rotating assembly have essentially no service life on them. The transmission is the Tremec T-45 5-speed manual, which was the correct gearbox pairing for the two-valve GT. It connects to a live rear axle with a limited-slip differential †a standard feature on the Mustang GT †which keeps the power honest going out of corners. With mileage this low, the practical mechanical story is straightforward. There are no high-mileage concerns to weigh. Rubber components and fluids should be inspected as a matter of age rather than use, but the mechanical components themselves show no meaningful wear. The undercarriage photographs confirm what the odometer suggests †this car has lived a sheltered life. Interior The interior of this 2004 Ford Mustang GT is finished in dark charcoal vinyl, which was a practical and period-correct choice for a performance car of this era. Sport bucket seats hold the driver and passenger in place without the thickness of leather, keeping the cockpit feel close and direct. The pony badging on the seats is a detail that GT buyers of this generation will recognize †the running horse embossed into the seat back was a subtle nod to the model's identity without overstating it. Power windows and power locks were included, which was not universal on every Mustang of this generation depending on the build. The door panels, center console, and dash surfaces show no cracking, fading, or wear co
