2001 Ford Mustang Coupe review from North America
"The American Dream"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only problem I've had with this car is with the plastic seat belt covers. Those constantly pop off and it drives me nuts!
The factory CD player is also a little touchy, but nothing that a laser cleaner won't fix up.
General comments?
I'm absolutely in love with this car. I grew up with my mom always having Corvettes, so I've always been a fan of the American Muscle cars. Of course I wanted a GT, but didn't want to pay the high insurance rates since I'm under 25. So I had to settle for a V6. I couldn't settle for the power a V6 puts out so it now has a custom dual-exhaust, forced air intake, a shift kit, a performance chip, and 17" low-profile tires.
It runs like a dream. It has the power of an 8, AWESOME handling due to the tires, and unbelievable acceleration. I couldn't ask for more.
