Mozart was 32 when he wrote this symphony. He would also have just over 3 years left to live.

One can only imagine what he would have been inspired to write had he lived a full life. For example, he should have lived long enough to hear Beethoven's mature works. Imagine the competition that would have existed between the two of them.
