Coupe

Convertible

The 2001 Mustang was mainly a carry-over year with the same styled 2 door coupe and convertible offerings from the previous year. Three models were the base level V6, the V8 GT, and the higher performance standard SVT Cobra, which had the word Cobra embossed on the rear bumper. In 2000, only 300 special SVT Cobras were built. The biggest news in 2001 was the introduction of the Black or Highland Green Bullitt special model GT coupe, based on the 1968 fastback driven by Steve McQueen in the detective movie Bullitt. Famous for its car chase scene on the streets of San Francisco, there were many third party Bullitt kits available.

Mustang Bullitt
The 2001 Bullitt optioned Mustang was based on the 1968 fastback driven by Steve McQueen in the detective movie Bullitt.

The original 1968 used in the movie was Dark Highland Green. The movie's director called for speeds of 75 to 80 mph, but the cars (including the ones containing the cameras) reached speeds of over 110 mph on surface streets. Filming of the chase scene took three weeks, resulting in 9 minutes and 42 seconds of film. During the chase scene, the Charger loses six hubcaps and has different ones missing at different times. The production company was denied permission to film on the Golden Gate Bridge.

The Cobra conversion was added back to the Saleen line-up for 2001. The Cobra conversion offered the DOHC and a few styling upgrades from the standard Saleen. The S-281 S/C model carried a new Roots-type blower for its supercharger. This added another 15 horsepower over the the 2000 version. The Standard S-281 Saleen coupe started at $32,099, while the Cobra version started at $41,600. A race version (SR) model was offered for a mere $158,000.
