Used Car of the Day: 2001 Ford Mustang Bullitt

Today's UCOTD is a low-mileage, special-edition pony car. A 2001 Ford Mustang Bullitt, to be precise.


This one has relatively low miles -- just over 32,000 -- and new rotors (in boxes, apparently) and caliper kits (may or may not be in boxes, the punctuation in the post is such that an English teacher would give the seller an F), plus a car cover.

There's new badging and fresh paint, though there are some rock chips. The car appears to be well-maintained and garage-kept.

That's about it. The asking price is $16,000 and the car is in Louisville, Kentucky. Click here to see the ad.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

  • Mike Beranek There's a hilarious scene in King of the Hill where Peggy is driving across Texas, she's in the middle of nowhere, and she tunes the radio from one end to the other. Nothing but static.
  • Redapple2 911 is my dream car. Some day ........... I can predict, it ll be ICE only tho.
  • Redapple2 1- XM- I like the hosts, themes of the day.2- CD player. Nice to have. Dont use it as much as I thought I would. 200 cd over 35 yrs3- my 18 Forester had a feature. Push the button and It would find the strongest 15 stations. Nice when driving distances because the weaker stations get weaker 50% of the time. Another ~25% stay weak the entire 15 minutes and fade out. I can count on the strong station staying strong for 45-60 minutes.
  • FreedMike Makes me nostalgic for the Golf. Otherwise, it's a cheap old car with engine problems.
  • Theflyersfan Body is in decent shape and interior looks to be in excellent shape for a 21 year old (sigh...feeling old now) VW but the engine issue is a major pause. Unless one is sound with wrench, this might be a pass. It could be a cheap winter beater with some snow tires and a "who cares?" attitude with the body. Or get this ready for Le Mons.
