Default RE: Edmunds Report on 2008 Challenger Sales

Yes they're making the Bullitt agian. They do not have any Ford or Mustang logos anywhere ont the car. The dash has a lot of brushed aluminum, there is no spoier, and there has been a suspension upgrade, cold air intake, and sport exhaust added.

The GT500kr is a special edition of the GT500 limited to 1000 units and will feature some exterior modifications as well as some beefing up of the engine. The new features are:

-5.4-liter supercharged V-8 producing an estimated 540-horsepower and 510 ft.-lbs. of torque
-Ford Racing Power Upgrade Pack featuring revised calibration and cold air intake system
-6-speed manual transmission with 3.73:1 rear axle ratio
-Ford Racing performance exhaust system
-Unique performance suspension tuning: springs, dampers, and stabilizer bars
-Shelby-designed “GT500KR” 20-inch wheels (18-inch version for production)
-Ford Racing short-throw shifter and front strut tower brace
-Unique carbon composite hood featuring classic Shelby “KR” design
-Front brake cooling ducts
-‘Shelby’ lettering across the front edge of hood and rear decklid
-40th Anniversary badges on the front quarter panels
-Carroll Shelby signature embroidered headrests and floor mats
-Official Shelby CSM 40th Anniversary GT500KR dash plate

The GT500KR will be the 2nd fastest production model behind the Saleen S281 Extreme, which boasted 550hp.
