2001 Ford Mustang consumer reviews

After more than two years of driving this car every day, I still love walking up to it in the parking lot, Love firing up that wonderful V8, Love going through the gears, Love on-ramps and passing, Love parking it in my garage, and love looking back at it after exiting. Loads of fun even within the speed limit. Great noises through the RPM range. Love hearing the changes in sound from 2000-3000 RPM, and then from 3000-4000 RPM, and occasionally from 4000-5000 RPM. Plus, I think it actually likes it. And I must say, it has been very reliable. Very mechanically sound. Aside from sketchy build quality from Ford (an effort to keep the car affordable and profitable), it's the best car I've owned in terms of satisfaction.

When I first saw this car I was in love and I had to get it. Its design turns heads everytime I went anywhere! Its not just the fact that It looks cool, for the 3.8, it packs alot of power for a v6. The steering is tight which makes you feel like your in a real sports car. Give it gas and let it go. The front seats are pretty roomy and I consider it pretty much to be a two seater, the back seats are small and ment for short people or kids or your not sitting very comfortably. For the car being base, the sound system sounds pretty good, It gets nice and loud and clear all at the same. I have only had one problem with the car and that was the fuel pump, and it went at 130,000 miles. One thing that also caught my attention was for it being a sports car I was surprised by its crash test ratings, 5 stars for frontal, now thats pretty good I feel. When I first got this car I heard horror stories about it in the winter I heard such things as "Impossible" and "You better have AAA" "Your going to crash it". These things threw me for a loop, but when we had our first good snow fall I took the car out and to my surprise it wasnt all that bad as people claim it to be. I was getting around just fine. Grant it I have traction control and sandbags, but I dont have any snow tires, I have regular Cooper all seasons and I get around no problem. The tricks are, dont go too fast, use your mind, and dont punch it around corners, Just take it slow and steady, better late than dead. If my car didnt have traction control, I would have gotten snow tires, but so far its not necessary. My mustang is a 2001 and for it being 7 years old It still has crisp edges, nice curves and steals all the attention on the road. Would deff reccomend to anyone looking for a more Practical fun sports car!

Between the purr of the engine, the gas petal beneath my feet and the convertible top down, I couldn't imagine owning anything that I'd enjoy more as a carefree young adult!

I have owned this car since 2002 and I like it so much I got a 2002 the following year. Both of these car are the same and I feel that these are the best cars I have ever had. If there is something that I feel could have been improved would be more leg room in the back. No big problem, i never sit there.

Loved my car. Only problem was a sensor that was under warranty went out 2x (that was over 5yrs ago) and door lock on passenger side. Reliable and never left me stranded. Is still pretty and stylish after 7 yrs. Good on gas. Am selling it now because I have an infant and putting the carseat in and out is not the easiest. Still think this model looks better than the recent redesigns. Was an awesome car for my pre-baby years!!!!

Nice ride and handling. V6 could use a bit more oomph. Outstanding styling. Had to replace both headers but otherwisw no problems.

I have owned four late model V-8 Mustangs. Simply put, you cannot get more performance for the money. The styling is classic and the handling is better than anything in it's class. Reliability is solid as well. Getting ready to buy my 5th- an '03 Mach 1!

What a Great year for Mustang! I bought my 01 GT pre-owned with 30,000 miles on it. I am so happy with my decision to go with this car. It's comfortable, powerful, and has the muscle one would expect from this American legend. The MACH 460 stereo sound excellent, the only sound sweeter is that of the 4.6L V8. I highly recommend this car for anyone debating on a sport car to buy.

Cant get enough mustangs, ever since i was about to dream i dreamed of owning a mustang and now that i am able to drive on i refuse to drive anything other than a mustang because of its unstopable power flawless design and unsupassed handeling on a curvy untaimed road there is just something that happens when you get into that first mustang and turn the key then when you slowly let out on the clutch and feel the power from the v-8 engine come into contact with the solid transmission and then to the tires and finally all that power hits the road and your hooked on the adreaneline pumping heart stopping pavement riping feel of an all american mustang!

This Car is a blast to drive. You don't see the Highland green color every day. The transmission is very smooth and the shifter ball fits perfectly in my hand. The "retro" gauges are a great look for the car. Sitting in the Bullitt is much more comfortable than a normal GT. Definately a must see!!
