2001 Ford Mustang Coupe review from North America
"Bliss on four wheels"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only thing to go wrong was the parking brake froze. Ran through the car wash in winter when the temp was 2 degrees above zero, then it quickly cooled to twenty below. I had to pour warm water on the brakes the following morning, then took it to the dealer to be lubed.
General comments?
This car is a blast to drive. Anyone can afford one, and they come almost completely equipped. The V6 and five-speed combo is very economical to operate, with 30 to 33 mpg/highway a reality, and between 19 to 21 mpg/city. All this, plus the head turning styling of an all around wonderful car.
