a mustang with PATS is rather difficult to steal. although there are places where you can get a PATS emulator that will plug into a key. the keys themselves are VERY easy to make. with a little practice you can make a ignition key for a new ford in under a minute. gone-n the way in which you asked the question is what got people all up in arms. if you had phrased it something like "i just got a 01 gt and i was wondering how hard they are to steal because i live in a bad neighborhood or whatever and if they are easy what can i do to make them harder to steal" then people wouldnt have jumped all over you.

Thank you, I will be very careful how I word things around here, thanks again
I love mustang GT's, I made the biggest mistake when I bought my 2000 323I
the car look great, handle great, and the fit and finsh was top notch, but
it was so underpowerd, all stock 323I, 325I, 328I, 525I & 528I are underpowerd, I have driven them all the 330I is better, but It will not pin
you back in your seat, I own my bmw for three years and ever time
I saw a mustang GT I would let the windows down to hear a real V8,
In my book there is nothing better than a high torque V8 RWD car
it doesnt get any better than that, let it go guys, and lets talk about
how fun it is to own a mustang gt
thanks again

I always thought Mustangs were harder to steal then most cars. At least if my car IS stolen I know it will be found quick I seem to draw the attention of all the cops around here.

As far as I know...most thieves aren't interested in my mustang...that is after they see the luster of my nickle plated Desert Eagle.

If you know what code the PCM has, you could break into the car and install a chip to disable the PATS and at that point it would be no more difficult to steal than a Yugo. Otherwise, you can car jack the owner's key or steal it with a tow truck. Considering the fact that you can break into most cars and steal them in about ten seconds with a screwdriver, the answer to your question is YES...

Not only that, it may dramatically reduce your life expectancy if you try it...

Maybe because I already answered his question earlier. Or have you not yet learned how to read?

OK. This thread is done. He knows he should have worded things differently, so get off his back.

FWIW, my folks had BMW's, and they weren't worth crap after 75k miles. all 4 were maintained religiously. One problem after another. Junk.
