This Year's Model Updates:

2001 Ford Mustang GT models get unique hood and side scoops, so that you can tell 'em apart from V6 models. They also receive standard 17-inch wheels, and V6 Convertibles get 16-inch wheels as standard. All cars have a revised center console and blacked-out headlights and spoilers. The Mach 460 stereo system comes with an in-dash six-disc CD changer. A new "premium" trim line is created for both V6 and V8 models. After a one-year hiatus, the Ford SVT Mustang Cobra returns for 2001.

Pros:
  • Strong V8 power, competent chassis and brakes, good crash test scores, ragtop option.
Cons:
  • Solid rear axle, dorky-looking fake hood and side scoops, poor stereo ergonomics.

  • A Few Modifications =Great Car... - 2001 Ford Mustang
    By -

    Fun to drive, great sound, perky performance & "in the breeze" option make this a great car... a great rendition of this icon! With a few performance modifications, improved suspension and better than "OEM" tires make this Convertible GT the car to own & drive. I could not be happier with it! Negatives: lacks headroom when the top is on, the neck support on the front seats are poorly designed and the car lacks cargo space. Biggest positive: the high performance, dress-up and aftermarket resources to personalize this car are ENDLESS!

    Other than Idling a little rough, this car gives a lot of bang for the buck. 260Hp V8, is plenty of power for most people.

  • Got Fun? - 2001 Ford Mustang

    This car is my 3rd Mustang. I havent found another car as fun to drive as this one in this price range. Its got the sport, the muscle, the look (and the looks I get while driving it are worth every penny-good and bad), and with all of these great qualities it also has class. A little difficult to achieve so many different characteristics in just one vehicle..well Ford has managed to produce one. This car is loads of fun to drive and the most reliable...

    I just bought this car, and I couldnt be happier! I had a 2003 Matrix, and it had no power, now I know what its like to have a real car.

  • My Mustang Beats the Neon Anyday! - 2001 Ford Mustang

    I love the mustang, indeed its not as powerful as the GT but I get enough tickets without the GT. I like the engine size, and the design is HOT. I get compliments ALL the time. I have the mineralg grey and its a sleek and sexy color. I will never buy a Dodge again.

  • After 33,000 miles still a blast - 2001 Ford Mustang
    By -

    Bought the Bullitt new and after 33,000 miles, daily driver, it is still a blast to drive. Had the AC compressor changed out under warranty for leaking internally, EGR sensor went out when new. Other than that it has been great. 22mpg combined 26mpg highway. Would do it all over again in a heart beat.

    COMPLAINTS, ONE BEING THE BRAKES, COME TO FIND OUT THAT THEY HAD TO BE RE CUT, I ALSO FEEL THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS NOT FUNCTIONING 100% THEY HAVE CHECKED IT 5 TIMES ALREADY, BUT THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT IT DOES NOT SHIFT PROPERLY OR AS SMOOTHLY AS IT SHOULD, UPON STOPPING SOMETHINGS IT FEELS THAT EITHER THE TRANNY OR THE ENGINE WANTS TO KEEP GOING AND FEELS THAT ITS GOING TO FY RIGHT OUT THE FRONT OF THE CAR, OF COURSE WHEN IT HAS BEEN IN & THE TECH TAKES A TEST DRIVE OF COURSE IT DOES NOT HAPPEN,

  • Fun To Drive - 2001 Ford Mustang
    By -

    I have heard a lot of negative things when I first purchased this car, but ALL have proved false. The car has been flawless and I have had nothing but fun with it. I drive VERY hard so the car does get used. Driven in winter also with NO problems due to the new features of traction control and anti lock brakes. I will buy this car again as a newer version.

  • Great car - 2001 Ford Mustang

    This is one fun car to drive, with great looks. Paint is flawless, with great fit and finish. Reliability has been excellent. I was fortunate to own one of the 5582 produced.
