Do not hotlink, host the image yourself - EVH

Shame there aren't any plans to bring it to the UK ...yet !

I haven't been big on these Mustangs but that one looks very nice.

Don't like the wheels

I guess they're trying to emulate the look of the torq thrusts on the original with a more modern feel, but you're not wrong, they're quite ugly imo.

I like them, actually some tyre on the rim too.

PardonTheWait · 15 Jan 2018 at 17:31

I think it's the thin silver band round the edge I don't like. Wheels like that look better with a wider one but it would probably look stupid on a modern car so I see why they've done it, I just think they look a bit wrong.

``Expected to be priced at less than the £32,000, 526bhp GT350, the Bullitt version will come to the UK - but with production being limited (though Ford isn't saying how many will be built), there's likely to be a fight to snap them up.``

we are getting it and man it looks nice !

I like the wheels though they look a little out of place on that car.

Looks a lot better than a lot of the concept car images that have been released lately for various headline models :s but does kind of look like the collision of a Mondeo and a 90s era Aston Martin with a bit of GTR influencing. Overall I quite like it - a solid classic look with a little modern flair that mostly manages to be subdued enough to not be shouty.

yes it looks really nice, the racing green makes it look sort of ``old school Bentley Brooklands style``.

it's also faster than the latest 2018 GT see the video

, but i dont know exactly by how much, we also dont know the price yet either and it's not available until the end of the summer.

it has a larger throttle body, the Shelby intake manifold and air intake as well ....i'll find out sometime this week.

the original ``American racing mags`` look fantastic but are only available in 18 or 20''..........but this car has 19'' wheels ............finally, the original Bullitt mustang is manual and so is this one, but the fancy new Auto thingy might still be available, not sure.

uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuummm :cool:

looks great from the rear, esp without the spoiler which is odd.....in fact it looks really good from every angle.. it looks old school and de-cluttered, this car has got me seriously excited

Raymond Lin · 15 Jan 2018 at 18:51

I really want one.....

ShiWarrior · 15 Jan 2018 at 18:53

i am a fan of the old Ford Mustang Fastback, and If those images are true of a new car coming out by Ford, I must say they have done an excellent job of making a remake of the old Mustang as it looks very similar, but yet still very modern
i love it

Mal X · 15 Jan 2018 at 19:11

those wheels are torq thrust........ there's about 3 of them that look very similar on the American Racing Wheels website............. the original Bullitt wheels look as if they're only 16''.

with the addition HP/engine mods i expect it'll be a few thousand more.... but this might be dropped back a bit without the expensive new Auto.....who knows !!!

according to the latest Bull it's going to be about 500HP.

As per usual, dealers are kept in the dark....

i dont think Gibbo would attempt a U-Turn as large as this, do you

but something tells me he deffo wont be keeping his bright blue Jag, i give him till about Xmas before he's bored stiff of it............ i know this, you know this, we all know this, it's so funny

yes, but i dont think it'll be ready for ordering for some time yet..... but when it is you'll have to order quickly.

Looks nicer with the cleaner and more functional look.

No unnecessary bits or fake exhaust tips etc. like you see on a lot of modern cars.

crinkleshoes · 15 Jan 2018 at 20:23

Looks OK... hate the wheels though and the side profile looks very C63 Coupe.

Still... 500-odd BHP from a THROTTLE BODIED V8 will sound flippin amazing.

Especially if it's the crossflow engine from the GT350... now there's a Mustang I might actually want.
