This year, Ford is going to haul its Mustang name by coming up with a 2008 edition of the Ford Mustang Bullitt. The said vehicle is of course, nostalgic of the movie “Bullitt” that is starred by Steve McQueen. In the said movie, McQueen who takes on the role of Bullitt has a remarkable car chase scene as he rides a 1968 Ford Mustang GT 390 Fastback, which he uses to chase two hit men on their 1968 Dodge Charger R/T 440 Magnum. In fact, in honor of the movie, Ford produced a limited edition of the 2001 Ford Mustang GT that was tagged as the “Bullitt Mustang.” The vehicle mimicked the Bullitt movie a lot and it can even reproduce its exhaust note.

Under the hood of the 2008 Ford Mustang Bullitt, one can find a V-8 engine. The V-8 is the standard engine of the Mustang GT. Apart from the V-8, the latest edition of the Ford Mustang comes with an open air intake. This is what makes the 2008 Ford Mustang Bullitt unique for this is geared with the first open air intake that Ford was able to produce. Apart from this, it has a specially tuned exhaust, which allows for cleaner emissions. As for the vehicle’s suspension system, it was tweaked in a lot of ways and was geared with aggressive Ford shocks and struts. These are believed to give its would-be users with a comfortable ride even on bumpy roads. Since there is not much one can do about road bumps as well as other irregularities of roads, it is best to avail of good shocks at Bilstein shocks and have the ride that one have always wanted.
