The Ultimate Mustang GT: A Bulletproof Performance Machine

The latest iteration of the iconic Mustang GT has finally arrived, and it's not just a mere homage to the 1960s Steve McQueen film "Bullitt". This beast of a car is essentially the ultimate Mustang GT, boasting the same 5-liter Coyote V8 engine as its standard counterpart but with a few tweaks borrowed from the GT 350. The result is an additional 20 horsepower, bringing the total output to a respectable 480 horsepower.

This powerplant is complemented by the same 420 pound-feet of torque, ensuring that the car is capable of delivering impressive acceleration and responsiveness. The engine is paired with a fantastic 6-speed manual transmission, complete with rev-match downshifting for seamless shifting and enhanced performance. The transmission's unique design also features a cueball shifter, adding to the overall driving experience.

But what really sets this Mustang apart is its active exhaust system, which produces an ear-shattering loud sound that is sure to turn heads on the road. The car also sports 19-inch Torque Thrust-style wheels with under-em bow brake calipers, further enhancing its performance capabilities and visual appeal. With the premium and performance packages, the car comes equipped with features such as Brembo brakes, heavy-duty front springs, a K-brace up front, a larger radiator, and a Torsen differential.

The performance package also includes unique suspension tuning and a bigger sway bar, all aimed at delivering an exceptional driving experience. However, it's not just about raw power; the car also features magnetic ride control as an optional feature. This system provides superior handling in normal, Sport Plus, and track settings, while also making a noticeable difference on the road, especially when cruising on flat terrain.

One of the most distinctive aspects of this Mustang is its visual identity. Gone are the traditional GT badges and horse emblem, replaced by a more understated design that pays homage to the original "Bullitt" model. The car's unique shade of dark green is also a standout feature, although it can be ordered in black as an alternative. At the rear, only exterior Bullitt badging has been added, further emphasizing the car's connection to the iconic film.

Inside, the car boasts a premium interior with leather upholstery and various niceties such as ambient lighting and a heated steering wheel. However, the real pièce de résistance is the optional Recaro seats, which add great lateral support but are manually operated and only adjust in six ways. The base seats, on the other hand, come with eight-way power adjustment, making them a more comfortable option for taller drivers.

The car also features an all-digital gauge cluster, similar to that found in the GT Premium model, which allows users to cycle through various Sport Plus and track settings as well as customize the display to their liking. With its unique blend of performance, handling, and style, this Mustang is sure to be a head-turner on the road. But is it the best Mustang GT available? Only time will tell.

with this fantastic 6-speed manual with rev-match downshifting but as you can see here it is topped with this very cool cueball shifter and for the bullet as you can hear and as a very cool very loud active exhaust it also has 19-inch very 1960s torque thrust style wheels as well as very under em bow brake calipers now otherwise the bullet is just State GT with the premium and performance packages now the premium being leather and you know various interior niceties but the performance package has a long list of items so you have those Brembo brakes you have heavy duty front Springs you have a K brace up front you have a larger radiator you have a Torsen differential there's also unique suspension tuning as well as a bigger sway bar all that ends up to one absolutely awesome Mustang to drive and there's one key option that would be the magnetic ride you have to get this not only does it absolutely make the handling superior with normal and Sport Plus and track settings but it actually makes the ride a lot better and when you're not on a mountain road like this I tell you it makes a world of difference makes this a viable daily driver now there are some key visual differences with the Mustang Poland now like Steve McQueen's bullet and in fact every Mustang bullet that came after it this one is a very cool shade of dark green now you can get it in black but this is a bolt mustang it should really be green it should also have nothing in the grille no Mustang horse nothing and in fact this one does not now at the rear they've added the only exterior Bullitt badging and then deleted the GT performance packages larger rear wing for the better in my opinion of course you do have the sequential turn lights here on the Mustang and here are those very loud very cool performance exhausts and now to give you a better look at this interior here is the special Bullitt badging on the wheel here's that cue ball shifter and then there's a special Bullitt badge up here now this particular car does have the optional Recaro seats and since it is the Bullitt it of course has the green stitching both there and the accent stitching on the seats now one thing to keep in mind with these Recaro seats is although they do add great lateral support they are manually operated and only adjust in six ways so if you're a little tall like me the base seats are actually a little better because they come with eight-way power adjustment otherwise you still have the all digital gauge cluster just like you do in a GT premium you can cycle through all the various different
