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.

  • Chris P Bacon "Needs a valve replaced" and has a cracked windshield, which would be a problem if you live in a state with an annual safety inspection. Based on the valve alone, it's overpriced. If those issues were corrected, it might be priced about right to be a cheap ride until something bigger broke. It's probably a $500 car in current condition.
  • SilverHawk Being a life-long hobby musician, I have very eclectic tastes in music. 2 of my vehicles have a single-disk cd player, so that's how I keep my sanity on the road.
  • Golden2husky So the short term answer is finding a way to engage the cloaking device by disabling your car's method of transmitting data. Thinking out loud here - would a real FSM show the location of the module and antenna...could power be cut to that module? I'm assuming that OTA updates would not occur but I wonder what else might be affected...I have no expectations of government help but frankly that is exactly what is required here. This is a textbook case where the regulatory sledgehammer is the only way to be sure.

  • AZFelix I have not listened to a radio station when driving since about 2018. I never sync my phone to my car and instead use a Bluetooth FM transmitter. It connects with my Spotify account on my phone in less than 3 seconds whether I am moving or stopped. It also has two extra USB connections if I ever need them. With 100 million songs (and 6 million podcasts if I was interested) available, I have never been bored with streaming music via Spotify.
