Overview & Reviews

Lower-line V6 models get standard 16-inch alloy wheels and a new hood while losing the fake side scoops. Premium models can be equipped with a Mach 1000 audio system. Both this system and the Mach 460 get speed-sensitive volume. Later this year, an MP3 player will be available. Performance Red paint is replaced with Torch Red.

• Strong V8 power with GT, fun to drive, appealing all-American style, good crash-test scores, ragtop option.

• Solid rear axle, excessive gingerbread detailing on GT, poor stereo ergonomics, flaccid seats.

  Love the Mustang - 2002 Ford Mustang
  By Arlene - October 22 - 3:32 pm

  Driving the Mustang is fun. I usually get 24-29 mpg lower for strictly city driving. Other than regular maintance I am at about 160,000 miles and recently had my first car incident with a u-joint replaced. I added a sun roof when I made the purchase and am passing it down to my son!

  Very reliable - 2002 Ford Mustang
  By Dan - October 2 - 12:54 pm

  I bought this car new in 2002 and have not had any major problem since. The engine check light came on at 30000 miles, I took it to the dealer and they replaced a sensor at no cost since it was still under warranty. I now have 90000 miles on it. It runs fine with basic maintenance such as oil changes, air filter and I change my fuel filter every 20000 miles. The car doesnt handle well in wet weather. Otherwise it drives very smooth and very reliable with very little repair cost (still on original battery, alternator, clutch, AC). I would buy another Mustang.

  I Enjoyed It - 2002 Ford Mustang
  By formermustangowner - September 3 - 4:18 am

  I purchased the 6cyl Mustang in 06 at 73,000mi as my first car and drove it about 13,000mi. It broke down twice, both times due to the alternator. The second breakdown was because an old alternator had been used to replace the first one and based on what Ive read reliability doesnt seem to be a common problem with this car. Other than that I really enjoyed the car the V6 had adequate power, although I would recommend the V8. I found that careful driving could get about 20mpg out of the automatic V6 Im sure a manual could be fairly economical. The car was fun to drive on short trips, and I never noticed any issues with comfort on longer drives. I would recommend this car to anyone.

  Good solid little car - 2002 Ford Mustang
  By car lover - August 26 - 2:00 am

  I like the car. It is a great deal of fun to drive. The interior is reasonably comfortable and the controls and displays are laid out quite well. It handles well except over bumps(the solid rear axel has to go. The engine performance is OK not great. A 3.8 liter v-6 engine should be providing at least 220 HP. The engine is also unrefined, could run a little smoother and less noisy.

  6 to one, half dozen to the other - 2002 Ford Mustang
  By bigfly - August 16 - 8:53 am

  We had the car for a month or so until we noticed the ground effects in the front were warped. We were told by Ford that we could either leave it alone or have them replace it.I elected to leave it alone. Overall, we were impressed with the acceleration and amenities of the car, along with the build quality of the somewhat dated interior. We were happy with the looks of the car and the Mach 460 sound system whether the top was up or down!

  A truly great car - 2002 Ford Mustang
  By BOOGER - July 9 - 10:00 am

  This car has truly been the best car I have ever had the pleasure of owning; and I have owned a camero, a corvette, a celica, and an eclipse. I treasure every moment I drive it. Driving my Mustang has now become my favorite thing to do in life. I never liked Mustangs very much until I drove one. Then i decided to buy one. It was the best decision I have ever made.

  Another Mustang in the garage - 2002 Ford Mustang
  By d.shaw - June 27 - 2:00 am

  I took delivery on another Mustang on November 4th. 2002 Mineral Gray, 3.8 v6, 5 speed. It sits next to my 1967 in the garage. I love it. For a 6 cylinder, the performance feels pretty good. The manual transmission adds punch. The handling is terrific. We love to drive it. Sound system is fantastic, and the instruments, controls and drivers seat are very comfortable. Id highly recommend it. Like the 1967, my plan is to keep it forever. Ill give you another review in 35 years!
