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.

  • My Thoughts - 2001 Ford Mustang
    By -

    Overall, the Mustang is a wonderful car. My only wish is-i should have purchased the GT. The V-6 model is very sluggish and still gets bad gas mileage. I love the looks, but not impressed with everything else.

    I just traded my 2000 V6 standard for the 01 GT automatic. Its a fun car to drive, but the brakes could be a little tighter.

  • 3.8...Who says they arent fast - 2001 Ford Mustang

    GM can have all the horsepower they want but in reality they arent that much faster if faster at all and dont turn half as many heads as the Mustangs. As for V6s go the Mustang base coupe is more affordible and faster anyway than a GM base coupe.(I proved that today on the street when I smoked a Camaro V6;same year and same mods)The other nice fact is that there are way more performance parts out there for V6 Mustangs than the GM 6s. The Mustang is definately a good buy and a sure way to go.

    Solid feeling car, no squeaks or rattles yet, more of an "axe" feel than "stilletto" - if this car had a chest, itd be wide and hairy.

    Independent rear suspension makes all the difference. Turns heads and perks- up ears. Makes me smile just seeing it in my garage.

  • Std Coupe - 2001 Ford Mustang

    Excellent reliability. Attention to detail lacking.

  • 2001 Cobra convertable - 2001 Ford Mustang
    By -

    Very fun car to drive, especially with the top down. Good low end power, very sharp handling. Steering response is crisp and precise. Road noise with top up is less than expected. This is a fun car for a long drive, a Sunday cruise with the top down, or a daily commute to work.
