New Bullitt
A bit over the top... probably even for Paul... not a fan of the redonkulous front spoiler. Nice color thou

"the redonkulous front spoiler."
This is a bit of an overdone boy racer look, but maybe it is functional on the track. The color is my favorite, and the car is my favorite....so not too many complaints ! |

Cool car.
How can you shift with such a short shifter? Seems like there would be no leverage.

Where have you been? These have been in showrooms long enough for dealers to begin dropping their demands for additional dealer markup...

And yet , certainly in Britain, the trend in racecars such as Touring cars is for long shift levers to bring the handle as near the steering wheel as loss how whilst still allowing room to turn the wheel.They are sequential boxes though so the motion is straight line

Here's a 25 minute look around and driving review. This tester is obviously a young guy who loves technology. I'm more of a technophobe who prefers a car without a TV screen in the dash...just give me good air & heat and a set of basic gauges. Well, I do like being able to set an ipod to shuffle play, then just drive my '09 Bullitt. It did well enough getting me to my favorite pool hall & back home today. Odds are high that I'm done buying cars.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ci7LHBKQjhM Here's a fun commercial. The cutie driving the Bullitt? Her name is Molly...her grandpa was known as the king of cool. She bears the same last name. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlbtzVdfVcE

Well, I only been in a showroom twice in 17 years, so that answers that question. Both were to buy a Ford F-150. 2001 and 2014

 But I agree, looks tight. Probably more room than we can perceive by photo.

If I pull the hammer on a eco-boost pretty sure I won't post about it here.
