Ford Mustang Bullitt
 

It was inevitable. You can??t build a retro version of America??s favourite sporty car and then ignore the fortieth anniversary of its starring appearance in arguably the greatest car chase film of all time, could you?

Well Ford??s Mutsang team couldn??t, and we don??t blame them. The result is this limited production Bullitt Mustang, a mildly reworked GT model complete with Highland green paint, albeit a slightly darker shade than the stuff covering Steve McQueen??s ??68 390 GT.

This isn??t the first time Ford has cashed in on the Mustang??s McQueen connection: in 2001 Ford did a similar job on the previous shape Mustang, eventually shifting over 5000 copies. And of course it worked some CGI magic to put him behind the wheel of the Puma in TV adverts.
