01/02 had power seats available as non-leather. My 01 had power driver's seat, despite being cloth.
I like the interiors of the 01/02 much better. You don't have the ****ed up cheap looking two-tone plastic, the finish was much nicer. Perforated vinyl door inserts were much better looking than the cloth crap in the earlier models. Also aluminum pedals in the sports package 01/02 Cougars ftw. I prefer the front and rear bumper of the 01/02 as well. I just didn't like the front bumper of the 99/00 bodystyle, something just felt slightly off to me. A 99/00 with a Roush kit looks superb though. I think it's because the chin angles "up" in the 99/00 whereas the 01/02 is flat. I like a more rakish look than a sudden upturn at the front of the car. Hence why I like how the Roush kit gave it a lip to work with that went the right direction, at a downward angle.
