used car of the day 2008 ford mustang bullitt

I have a soft spot for Bullitt Mustangs, and this 2008 Ford Mustang Bullitt that comes to us by way of New Mexico has piqued my interest.

It has a salvage title, so that raises a red flag, but the seller claims to have all the necessary CarFax info and that there was no airbag deployment.

There are 81,000 miles on the car and it's daily driven.

The seller has listed mods such as Ford Racing cams, a Ford Racing driveshaft, a tune, BBK headers and X pipe, upgraded mufflers, short-throw shifter, cross-drilled rotors, carbon-fiber duck-tail spoiler, and uplevel audio.

The car also has new springs, struts, shocks, and idler pulleys.

There are more -- you can see the full list here.

The seller also has the stock parts.

Check it out here.

Tim Healey

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.

That creep Patrick S. Tomlinson @stealthygeek forever ruined these for anyone who’s had the misfortune of stumbling across his lunacy
his has a salvage title just like this one but about 3x the miles and is in desperate need of new seat foam. He’s fat, you see.

Funky D The only piece of technology introduced in the last 10 years that is actually useful is the backup camera. Get rid of the rest. All I want is a car with that and phone connectivity and zero driving nannies.
TheMrFreeze As somebody who's worked in IT for my entire career, I don't want any computer automatically doing something of this nature on my behalf. Automatically turning on my headlights? Sure (and why hasn't THAT been mandated yet). Automatically braking, or steering, or actually driving my car for me? Not an effing chance...I've seen computers do too much weird stuff for no reason to trust my life to one.
Daniel J Our CX-5 has hit its automatic brakes a few times at in very unnecessary situations. My 2018 doesn't have it, but it will shake and throw a warning if it thinks you should brake. Only once was it needed. The dozen or so times it has gone off I was already on the brakes or traffic was in a pattern that just fooled it.
Kosmo This would become interesting with a turbo and 6MT.
CanadaCraig 'Afraid' is the wrong word. The question should be, "Do you trust autonomous cars to get you from point A to point B and all points in between safely?" And my answer to that question is 'NO'.
