If you have the time to check the car out in details, there's the:
VIN
Head casting #
Block material
Brake rotor diameter
Swaybar endlinks
Valve covers & coils
PCM pin out pattern, bin file size

We didn't see the numerous body styling changes in the C5 line like we have with the C3 and C4.

The 99 will have a keyhole on the pass. door, the 04 will not.

Wheels.

Possibly color.

Appearance-wise, not much changed in the C5 generation.

Assuming stock exhaust, chrome exhaust tips on the 04 would be another indicator. The 99 just had plain (black) pipes.
