2008 Ford Mustang Bullitt

 »  »  »

After endless special edition Mustangs, Ford will finally come with something special, the Ford Mustang Bullitt, a reminiscent of the 1968 390 fastback model driven by Steve McQueen in the 1968 movie famous for its high speed chase, Bullitt.

Like the last Ford Mustang Bullitt, power output is bumped only slightly, it's going to come in at 312 horses, thanks to the Ford Racing Power Pack. Other Ford Mustang Bullitt modifications include a retuned suspension, strut tower brace, x-pipe, new exhaust tips, V6-style grille (we hope that Ford deletes the pony badge, too), red brake calipers, 3:73 rear, 18" "Bullitt" wheels, and, of course, Highland Green paint. The car's also going to be available in black.

Pricing is still a mystery, but we now know that the program will go on for seven months and produce 7,000 cars for the US, and 700 for our Canuck friends.

Information from Ford about the 2008 Bullitt Mustang has been leaked, whether on purpose or not, to Mustang Forums all across the net. The information contains specifics as to power increases, exterior/interior modifications and production numbers but doesn’t include a projected price. The power output is nothing to get excited over with an expected 312bhp. The car will also get the

obvious exterior and interior modifications to give it the Ford Mustang Bullitt feel along with improved suspension. All Ford Mustang Bullitts will ship with 3.73 gears. So far there have been no official pictures released.
