Standard equipment in the Mustang for 2007 and 2008 includes the 4.6 liter engine by Ford, weighing in at 8 cylinders and twenty four valves. A 5-speed Standard Transmission puts the power of the engine to the pavement. This is a long-standing favorite for buyers in the Coupe arena.

The Mustang uses power-assisted brakes, with 4-Wheel ABS support. The front brakes are disc while the rear brakes are disc. Steering is handled through a power-steering rack-style configuration. The car uses coil and coil springs front and rear respectively.

Fuel Efficiency

The fuel system for the 2008 Mustang is a SFI system, running on gasoline . The fuel is controlled by an electronic system and is a fuel-injected MFI design. The 16.00-gallon tank provides the fuel storage for longer trips.

The Mustang Bullitt received a miles-per-gallon rating of 16 - 17 in-city driving and 24 - 26 when it came to highway driving. Being a gas-powered non-hybrid car, this was exceptional.

We Think...

The 2007 model began the promise of the Ford Mustang. The 2008 expanded on this success and has proven to be a strong seller in most markets. Even with strong competition from other manufacturers Ford hopes that the Mustang Bullitt will continue to be a profitable vehicle.
