Today's UCOTD is a 2001 Ford Mustang Bullitt with 95,000 miles on the clock and plenty of mods.

Those mods include BBK headers, Eibach springs, Billett aluminum flywheel, Nitto tires, short-throw shifter, Steeda underdrive pulleys, a panhard bar, Kona shocks and struts, chin spoiler, and more.

The seller does mention some unspecified 22-year-old minor damage.

If you like Bullitt Mustangs, as I do, this one is for sale in New York for $14,900.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

Ford Australia attempted to out-Murica Murica itself by building a V10 version of this car. They looked like a bunch of drunken fools, like always.

SCE to AUX This was the same car I had (05 xB, stick, "camouflage" color) for 7 years - great car.We called ours "The Lunchbox". I added aftermarket wheels, and the 3rd-party cruise control the dealers could install.It suffered only two failures: bad window switch in week 2 (dealer fixed in 1 hour), bad trailing O2 sensor (fixed myself for $70). Fuel economy was always 28-34 mpg.It was a potential death trap, and ride quality became unbearable after 2 hours. I once did a 10-hour round trip in it and could barely walk after.Traded it for a 2012 Leaf, which was a better car in some ways.
Bd2 The "e" nomenclature signifies the e-ATPs which BMW is pursuing.
Dave M. I'm sorry to see any storied name go away. The lifespan of the Malibu has fit perfectly in my lifetime years-wise. Some of the highlights include the first and second generations, the '78 revamp (very clean design), and the 2005 generation. Ford, GM and Mopar gave this segment away by allowing Toyota and Honda a foot in the door and then always having to play catch-up. How hard is it to make a truly competitive sedan at a profit? Obviously, Japan Inc. figured it out.I've driven a few rentals these past years; the Malibu got the job done but honestly the Passat and Altima were my rental preferences.
Kcflyer actually yes. It's a shame that a product this uncompetitive can still outsell GM's entire EV offerings. Those products have had billions thrown at them. Imagine how nice the new Malibu, Impala, SS, and Lacrosse would be with that kind of commitment.
