RE: New Bullitt Mustang!

[anonymous-user]

Not quite sure why they have to spoil it with that heinous badge at the back?

[Pauly-b]

Wonder if they’ll do it in Right hand Drive? Would be definitely interested in they do....

[mfp4073]

I would have that car in a heartbeat. I'm of a certain age, which means a retro V8 muscle car is all there is for me. And thank goodness for a decent car add, and no mention of mpg, connectivity, lane departure, stop start or auto this, or auto that....heaven!!!!!!!

With you there fella

If it was available in RHD I’d have one in heartbeat.

Stunning!!!

[rich12]

Absolutely love that.
Never had a green car before. Hmmmm
Ant recommendations for a decent dealer to put an order in?

[Hairymonster]

Oh yes - want this badly!

[rich12]

Deposit down.
First one to do so at the dealer so hopefully its all good.

He reckons end of this year but I really hope its not that long.

Cars looked leaner vertically back then because of the higher ground clearance and less aero.

[sr.guiri]

For those of you thinking of buying one of these, I'll let you know something. THE ORIGINAL ONES STILL EXIST AND ARE AVAILABLE. DON'T BE SILLY!!

Here's a pic of a motor from one of them, a 600hp one (if you're a numbers guy):

Congrats. Did he give you any indication on price?

No nothing. Just that it will be more ha.
Not looking to hopeful in getting any inside info as the 3 dealers I spoke to this morning all knew less combined than I did.

One even told me there is no such thing and surely I just mean the face-lift model.

Even my email confirmation states that thet have not even been told by Ford they will be coming to the UK.

Fair play, hopefully Ford are sensible about the pricing

[rich12]

I hope so. Its not exactly a car I'll pay anything for so it needs to be priced well for me to go through with it.

All the people in here that said they'd have one in a heartbeat if they came over here, have you all put money down for one now?

[swisstoni]

Those red calipers would have to go. Don’t know who thought those were a good idea.

I love the accent, she is hot. As long as its not a Scottish female accent.

Not a pleasant noise.

Noise is an accurate description. She fails to enunciate.

And instead of putting words to work, she relies on sounds -- mostly from the throat and not the mouth. It's the sort of habit that is more child or domestic animal than adult. Does better, visually, I reckon.

I had a green Ford (Mk1 1500 Cortina) back in the early 70's, a little modified, flat out downhill towards the Banstead cross roads (in Surrey) well over the cars 'official' top speed, the flywheel parted company with the crank. Thought I was going to die, kinda rebel without a clue stylee

That was the last green car I ever bought... real shame because some cars look stunning in green, and I think the Mussy is one of them...

[forzaminardi]

I have to say, I do love how this car looks. The facelift has made the base Mustang look a bit more dynamic, and the colour and wheels on this one suit it well. I had a go in a V8 last year and can't say I was super blown away by the experience, but there's clearly something about them that keeps me wanting one...
