2002 Ford Mustang
With a proven history spanning thirty-five years behind it, the reliable
Ford Mustang is ready for yet another successful year on the market. It
comes with a series of new updates to keep it modern and accommodating
for even the most discriminating of driving enthusiasts.
Available Models
Four diverse models are offered this year, so that you may
select the body type and configuration that suits you best. On the market
are the 2002 Ford Mustang Coupe, Mustang Convertible, Mustang GT, and
the 2002 Ford Mustang GT Convertible. The two main differences lie in
performance with the V6 and V8 options, and of course in the coupe vs.
convertible design.
Interior Features
The 2002 Ford Mustang boasts a phenomenal sound system including
an optional six-disc, in-dash CD changer that pumps out the tunes via
six amplifiers, four subwoofers, four tweeters, and two trunk-mounted
subwoofer enclosures. You may also choose an MP3 CD player.
As for creature comforts, the interior sports cloth bucket seats, air
conditioning, power windows, and power door locks. New for 2002, all coupe
models feature an overhead storage net. Genuine leather upholstery is
available as an option, along with a six-way power adjustable driver's
seat.
The V6 GT models feature a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and both models
may be upgraded with optional leather seating.
Exterior Features
The convertible models headline a power retractable fabric
top that is raised and lowered rapidly and features a scratch-resistant
rear window. The exterior is marked with aerodynamic halogen headlights
and dual power outside mirrors, and the Ford Mustang GT models are equipped
with sixteen-inch bright aluminum wheels with exposed lugs. A rear spoiler
is also available on the GT models.
Performance
The 2002 Ford Mustang Coupe and Convertible check in with a
3.8-litre OHV V6 engine that spits out 193 horsepower and 228 lbs-ft of
torque. Meanwhile, the Mustang GT Coupe and Convertible is equipped with
a 4.6-litre, SOHC V8 that whips down the roads with 260 horsepower and
302 lbs-ft of torque.
Each rear-wheel drive Mustang features a modified MacPherson Strut front
suspension and four-bar link rear suspension, along with power rack-and-pinion
steering. The GT headlines a traction-lock rear axle for superior handling
on slippery road surfaces or while accelerating rapidly.
Safety and Security
The Ford Mustang is built with three-point seatbelts, four-wheel
anti-lock brakes, and all-speed traction control. The list of safety features
continues with a driver depowered air bag and a passenger depowered air
bag. Each vehicle comes with an interior emergency trunk release handle,
and is armed with the SecuriLock theft deterrent system that prevents
the ignition from being started without an appropriate key. The Ford Mustang
Coupe has the honor of receiving a five-star front crash test rating for
driver and front passenger.
