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.

  02 GT convertible Good & Bad.... For 2012 - 2002 Ford Mustang
  By flashycarluv - July 26 - 10:37 am

  ive had the car for almost 2 years and have had 3 engines in it., Driver window fail, fuel pump failed, CD player failed and the transmission has small leak. i love the car& dont really plan on ever selling. but its not recommended for a daily driver, its not very reliable but its 10+ years old. But for a fun top down weekend warrior its great. and its idea for customization. I know more than 10 people with the same style mustang GT, and they have problems too, but still love them. if you buy one I recommend having $2-3k set aside for future repairs. MPG isnt great either I average 15MPG combined... But it works for me because I only drive the car maybe once a month.

  Jar your spine - 2002 Ford Mustang
  By RMFL - April 11 - 4:13 pm

  My husband bought this car for me to replace my tired Mazda 626. The 626 was very well-equipped, so the Mustang falls short on a number of "extras". The biggest problem is the hard ride. Its fine on smooth pavement, but who has that to drive on any more? The clutch is also extremely tricky. I am accustomed to driving various vehicles with standard transmissions, but mastering this one is very difficult. My spouse has the same problem. I love the look of the car, but have had to equip the drivers seat with a hospital-quality wheelchair seat cushion to avoid having a splitting pain in my neck when driving.

  Fun to drive/poor quality - 2002 Ford Mustang
  By BOB - May 20 - 2:01 pm

  Bought the car in 2005 with 33,000 miles. fun to drive but gets the same, 20/22 mpg,in city or highway driving. Needs on more high end gear ratio so car doesnt stop when you take your foot off gas. Interior quality is poor. Automatic door lock dont work and the plastic trim is falling off. I live in AZ. and the air conditioner is very poor in hot weather. Car overheats, and a really big drag on the engine.

  Dont get the V6!! - 2002 Ford Mustang
  By stang - January 12 - 10:00 am

  Car has been taken back to the dealership for service an endless amount of times. Clutch replaced at 2,000 miles because of defective pressure plate, bad fuel pump, truck latch replaced - would pop open going 70 mph down the interstate, truck light would not turn off and drained the battery several times. New squeaks & noises everyday...
