This Year's Model Updates:

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.

Pros:
  • Strong V8 power with GT, fun to drive, appealing all-American style, good crash-test scores, ragtop option.
Cons:
  • Solid rear axle, excessive gingerbread detailing on GT, poor stereo ergonomics, flaccid seats.

    This is the best car i have ever owned. It is fun to drive and all my friends fight over who gets to ride with me. In all reality it is only a two seater. Mustangs are the last of the pony cars and are a true American Icon.

    The Mustang Gt is a must have vehicle. Its 260 hp engine will wake up the kid in you quick. Great throttle response, speed and looks.

  • Paint Job!!! - 2002 Ford Mustang
    By -

    I loved my mustang until the paint just started flaking away on a routine carwash. Be careful with Ford and their paint!!!! They will not pay for it to be repainted. I am especially disappointed in my dealership(The Bohn Zone) they wouldnt "cut me a deal" because I didnt get maintance work done their. I thought buying the car their would be enough. So ask about these things before you buy a 2002 or any other Ford.

  • My Coupe - 2002 Ford Mustang

    The experience with the car has been pretty good. The only problem was understanding how the hood needed to be closed very heavily (i.e. dropped from a height), and that on occasion the parking brake seems to stick on a little cuasing over heating of the brakes.

    This is a great car for what it is. Highly reliable and much sexier than a Focus for only about $1,500 more. The Mustang still turns heads and the V6 is insurable for teenagers. While I wouldnt want to drive cross country in it, its a great commuter, off to college car.

  • Only 2 small Complaints - 2002 Ford Mustang
    By -

    First and foremost, I love my 02 Mustang GT. This car is a blast to drive. I have never owned a car that I have just loved to drive without any particular destination. My only complaints with my Mustang: 1. The manual shifter is positioned to far forward to be comfortable for frequent shifting. It would be much more comfortable if the manual shifter was positioned at the first cup holder or even the second cup holder. 2. THAT INTERIOR BACK WINDOW IS A REAL...YOU KNOW WHAT TO CLEAN. :-) Im really looking forward to the re- designed Mustang in 04 or 05.

    I own a red 2002 mustang and its a dream i mean i love my car, sure its not a gt or a svt cobra but it is still faster than alot of cars out there that dont have changes made to them. i got in to a majore accident recently and i hit a person head on and i came out of the reck with nothing but my neck and chest hurting from the airbags, it is very safe for how i drive an fast enough to keep up with alot of cars but watch out cause it is a magnet for cops i know.
