Used Car of the Day: 2001 Ford Mustang Bullitt

I love it when Ford Mustang Bullitts pop up for sale on our forums, because no matter what generation Mustang we're talking about, the Bullitt is one of the cooler trims out there.

This 2001 Ford Mustang Bullitt sure fits the bill.


There are only 52,000 miles on this one and it features an autograph from Scott Hoag, a lead engineer who helped shepherd the Bullitt to market.

It has all the goodies and is, of course, a manual. And it's the Dark Highland Green color. Oh, and it has the Mach 460 sound system.

It's been restored to (mostly) factory status by the previous owner, including a paint correction and new interior carpet.

There are four major mods: A short-throw shifter, a Ford Performance 3.73:1 rear-end, Ford Motorcraft shocks and struts, and rear-wheel spacers.

If you, the buyer, want to go all the way back to factory, the seller has those parts available.

If you're interested in this ride, you can click here to see more of it/more about it. It's listed for $19,500 in Danville, California.

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.

    I always thought the 03-04 Mach 1 was the best out of this era of Mustangs. I had an Azure blue 04 and loved it, the Cobra was out of reach for me but I thought the Mach was cooler anyway.

  • SCE to AUX I can't warm up to the new look. Still prefer my 22 SF.
  • SCE to AUX I guess the direct sales stores weren't polled. Unless dealers are going out of business, I don't feel one bit sorry for them. They should most fear the mfrs who are eager to get rid of them, reducing costs and increasing customer satisfaction.

  • Lou_BC I guess I should pry all of the logos off my vehicle. That is a form of advertising. Anyone wearing 'branded" clothing?
