2000 Ford Mustang Reviews

The day after I bought it, it simply would not start. I cranked and cranked, but no start... turns out the problem was not really the car... I'd received 3 keys, and only 2 of them were programmed to work with the car. The 3rd one (I put it away so I'd never use it again) was not programmed for the car, and as such, the car wouldn't recognize it and wouldn't start. When I put the other key in it, it fired right up, no problem. That was 10 months ago, and no problem since.

No other problems at all.

What a sensational car. I simply love rear wheel drive, V8 American cars. Plenty of torque, plenty of get up and go, and mechanically simple. I was attracted to this car because I knew it was simple to work on, the 4.6 Ford SOHC engine appears in countless Crown Victorias (think taxi or police car), Grand Marquis, Town Cars and F150's... I think Ford has got it pretty nicely dialed in. Also, the sound of an uncorked Ford V8 is a sweet mechanical symphony... truly hard to beat! This car has proven completely reliable for me. It looks superb, is a pleasure to maintain, can be purchased for a reasonable price, and receives plenty of complements!

Two changes I've made: Lowering springs and a Pro 5.0 shifter. Other changes I'm planning on making: Flowmaster exhaust, and more substantial rear lower control arms. Also, 4.10 rear gears.

The Stereo (Mach 460) isn't anything to get too excited about.

The handling is good, but not great.

I love that this car is easy to steer via the rear wheels... blip the throttle (if you've turned the traction control off), and you can be sliding sideways wherever you wish... the car responds well, and is easy to control. And, it looks good doing it!

New stater at 87,000 miles.

New radiator fan at 87,000 miles.

Seats have slight wear, but my car's a convertible, and it's attributed to sun damage from driving with the convertible top down.

I love the comfort of the car.

0-60 is a little slow, but the passing gear shows a large increase of horsepower.

Larger rims and tires from a Cobra increased handling significantly.

The adding of a cold air intake, performance chip, racing cam and off road H pipe helped with horsepower.

A lot of rotor and caliper problems.

This year, in my opinion, is the best looking.

All I can say is that this car has saved my life not once, but twice. Both accidents being front end collisions, and both accidents being at 50 mph or more. Both accidents, I walked away with not so much as whiplash.

I swear by this car for its good looks and safety. Pretty good gas mileage as well. Even for a basic V6, it's got a ton of get up and go... but hey that's what Mustangs are for.

HOWEVER!!! This car in snow is a death wish due to it being so gutsy, paired with being rear wheel!

Would love to drive a Mustang forever, but having a baby and a 6'2" boyfriend will not allow :/.

Just basics repairs for the most part. The only unexpected costs were when the fuel pump went out on me about 2 years ago, and the dealer soaked me really good to replace it.

I have had the car for 9 years now and love it. Very dependable, great acceleration for a V-6.

Rides good, good on gas and a lot of fun to drive.

Interior seats could be a bit better quality.
