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.

Just get rid of the meatsack and use the 56 billion to you know .. make the product better..
SCE to AUX "...he also recently threatened that he would not create new AI technology for the automaker if he didn’t have at least 25 percent control of the company"One can only hope. Maybe this will be his excuse for not getting FSD across the finish line.When he bails, unfortunately the Board should be overhauled as well. Tesla has become a reflection of its bizarre leader.Thankfully, SpaceX is better managed.
Tane94 Always liked these. I wonder what engine could be dropped into it now without frame or massive body reworking
Tassos Good job posting this find before Tim serves it as his "used car of the day, yeah, right"
Theflyersfan There were a couple of people in my high school who wanted something that resembled a sports car, that had two seats and a mid-mounted engine...and then around junior year, a couple of these appeared in the parking lot. They were already rusted, barely ran, I remember one left daily oil slicks in its wake, and I'll be nice and call them barely usable heaps. But to a 16-year-old with their first car, it was the greatest thing ever. When they ran. Which wasn't often and one of the drivers I was frequently taking home because his Fiat never ran. I'm sure over the past 30 (gasp) years, these haven't improved with age. These weren't good cars and I'm pretty sure they were delivered news already with some rust and at least one fluid leak. And wasn't this the engine that Porsche decided to swipe to use with one of their cars, or was that from VW?
