The Mach 1 Vs. Bullit

[CIVICKLR]

Prettty self-explaining,.. lets go for it

Mach1,.. love the shaker hood not too crazy about the "heritage wheels" as they call 'em

Bullit,.. Simple, gorgeous, Mustang

Mach1 is a much better looking car than a bullit IMHO.
Plus gotta love the 32v 4cam 320HP motor.
MACH1 hands down

BULLITT - Should have been in Green ONLY, no Black or Blue - BIG Mistake having all three colours. Nice clean lines on the car, great without the rear spoiler, new wheel design and motor mods. However, should have been about 275-280bhp to have been done right. Nice retro touches to the dash gauges.

MACH 1 - Great reintroduction to the shaker hood!! Nice tape treatment - so close to the original styling, including the rear badging. Personally, I like the wheel, although I wish it had a deeper dish-treatment - looks too much like a front-drive wheel. Great power! with a big gap from GT to Cobra, Ford could do it right and fit it right down the middle (well, almost) and made it a poor-man's Cobra. Nice retro treatment inside again and reintroduction of old-style colour. White and yellow are my favourite colours for this car.

i agree, i had to settle for black....

now your hp figures are a tad off... mine dynoed at 241 rwhp add the 15% drivetrain loss to that.. 277....

Sounds like you got a good motor. The official factory rating for the Bullitt was only 265, 5 more than a stock GT. You're one of the lucky ones - must have been a Wednesday car!:spinem:

Indeed, the Bullit should have just been green to keep it classic,.. oh well,.. Still a lovelyt retro stang
