RE: EDITORS' NOTEBOOK: 2008 Ford Mustang Bullitt, Day 1
At 315 - 320 HP this Bullitt won't hold a candle to the SRT8 or even the 5.7 version of the Challenger. Thing is, it's not supposed to. Ford's just coming up with variation 152 of the current Mustang platform. Another "instant collectible". I don't know why they won't just put a 375-400 HP normally aspirated 5.4l in the damn thing. Call it the Mach 1, load it with options, price it at $34K and be done with it. I think it would be a hit.
