2001 Ford Mustang GT review from North America

Nothing.

This car is awesome! The power is great, with lots of low end umph. Everyone looks as I drive by. Sound is good, but I will be putting after market items on it to make the sound deeper and improve performance.

The seats aren't the most comfortable in the world, and the headrests are there for show. They don't tilt far enough forward to be of any use. The '04 are supposed to have a more forward tilt, can't wait to spend the approx. 100 bucks to get them.

Traction control works awesome for launching at a red light. Turn it off and I can spin thru first and half of second gear. Keep it on and I launch fairly hard and all you hear is barely a chirp.

As I drove for the first time into town with this car, I was stopped at the intersection and the guy next to me was watching me and gave me "the nod". As I left the intersection, I was starting to shift out of second gear and I noticed I was alrady speeding (60 mph).

The car doesn't handle as well as an Acura I test drove, and the brakes don't seem as tight either, but it does well enough for me.

Only problem is when I drive my girlfriends Lancer everyone wants to race, but when they pull up beside my red GT, it seems as though they wait for me to go thru the intersection before taking off.

Friend of mine has a WS6 Trans Am, he said I would beat him on low end up to around 100 or so, but he would own me after that. I don't plan on spending my days above 100, so I don't really see a problem with that.
