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.

  • Jkross22 Gotta stop the spying Chinese!!!! Please. These parasites don't care about spying unless they're the ones profiting. US Commerce Secretary... another useless job that should be done away with.
  • Canam23 I've rented them and found them...fine. I wish Ford had continued with or came up with a new generation Fusion which was a far better sedan.
  • MaintenanceCosts The ES will do well in an electric version, assuming it's more thoroughly baked than the half-finished RZ. There's plenty of the Lexus customer base who use planes whenever they travel and don't need to drive their own cars outside the metro area.
  • Legacygt It was more than 20 years ago that the Bangle designed BMW sedans started looking a little bit awkward. But the lineup today is chock full of downright ugly vehicles. This is one of them.
  • Jeff It does state in this article that Europeans as well as Americans have cooled on EVs. I can see push back from consumers on the 2035 deadline for EVs in Europe and in states like California. I have no problem with manufacturers offering EVs but many for at least now don't want EVs. Maybe GM instead of planning to do away with the Malibu to make more EVs, GM should have offered the Malibu as a hybrid only like Toyota is offering the Camry for 2025. It would cost GM a lot less to offer a hybrid Malibu and it would outsell any EV that plant would produce. I even think GM would increase sales of the Malibu as a hybrid only and more competitive pricing.
