    The 2002 Cobras are right-hand drive and have an extra set of fog lights. I'm just kidding a bit. The only 02 Cobras are Australian. The 01s are the last year for true SVT Cobras sold in America with the naturally aspirated 4.6 all-aluminum DOHC V8.

    The other differences are:

    2003+
    - have a 6 speed manual
    - wider tires/wheels combo
    - slightly better axle splines
    - lowered factory suspension
    - an increased weight of over 200 lbs.
    - different front and rear fascia; rocker panels
    - foldable, color-keyed side mirrors

    2001
    - have similiar, but distinctive seats
    - 5 speed manual
    - amber turn signals (distinctive feature of 99-01 Cobras)
    - different type spoiler

    Those are all that I can think of right now.

    I believe the 2002 Cobras are identical to the 2000's.
























    They do not exist :bang:
