Reviews SummaryEvery once in a while, an automotive icon comes along that changes not just the car industry, but multiple industries. I’m talking about examples that go beyond car models. Not just the Beetle, but Herbie the Love Bug. Not just the Charger, but the General Lee. Inarguably, the greatest of these is the Bullitt Mustang. Fifty years ago, it was driven through the streets of San Francisco by the coolest actor the world has ever known—Steve McQueen—in the greatest car chase ever captured on celluloid. For the 50th anniversary of the movie, the Bullitt takes a Premium GT fitted with the Performance Pack and adds mostly cosmetic changes: logo and spoiler deletes, a blacked-out grille, unique Bullitt badging, chrome trim, a cue-ball shifter, digital gauges, and these gorgeous, Bullitt-specific 19-inch wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 4s tires. There’s also the usual Highland Green paint job that mimics Steve’s example, but it’s not just aesthetic changes here. The Bullitt also gets a special exhaust and the intake from the GT350 that results in a 20-horsepower boost, an extra 8 mph on the top end, and the second-best sound you’ll ever hear a Mustang make. Sorry, Bullitt, but the GT350 still takes the top spot there. | |
Reviews SummaryWant a basic but stylish car? How about a hybrid, or even a plug-in hybrid? What about an undeniably luxurious sedan, or a genuine sports sedan? The 2018 Ford Fusion lineup has them all, ranging in price from just over $22,000 all the way up to just under $44,000. | |
