2008 Ford Mustang

Up for sale in our Tampa Showroom is a very iconic pony car, the 2008 Ford Mustang GT Bullitt. Made famous from the 1968 movie "Bullitt", the original 1968 fastback Mustang was painted in the iconic color known as Highland Green. If you are familiar with the movie, then you understand what the car is capable of. 40 years later, Ford brought back the legend with the 2008 body, painted to match the original. The beauty of a Bullitt Mustang lies in its simple but elegant design. From the clean body lines and the removal of the rear spoiler, this car is built to be stunning at any angle. There is no over the top body designs like you find on the other Mustangs built in this time, from the Shelby hoods to the Roush and Saleen bodies that are made to look aggressive on the street, instead the Bullitt has a more subtle design in mind. The hood is a standard Mustang GT hood and the body matches that of the factory GT style, but is made to have a more iconic look with its beautiful paint job lined in metal flake. The engine is a 4.6l 3 valve engine that makes 315 rated horsepower and 325 lb-ft of torque. Topped off with a Ford Racing cold air intake system and a high performance Ford Racing tune to optimize the engine, this Bullitt is ready to tear up the streets like in the movie. Back the engine up to a TR-3650 Tremec 5-speed manual to give you solid control of the shift points, then transfer the power to a 3.73:1 gear ratio in the rear with standard 8.8" Ford rear end and 31-Spline rear axles to allow you to burn rubber the way Steve McQueen does in the movie. The suspension was adjusted too, with special Shocks and Struts and upgraded springs to help perform better as you blaze through the streets of San Francisco. The interior is taken from the Shelby GT500 as well as the steering wheel, all of which are done in beautiful Black Leather and topped off with a polished billet dashboard. Each of the Bullitt Mustangs are serialized from the factory, this one being #1917 of 5,773 ever made during this year. The 2008 Bullitt Mustang is a true collector piece, and is an absolute blast to drive, whether you are going up and down the streets, or chasing down criminals.
