It Makes You Want To Buy A Mustang

[Flynnn]

The new Mustangs are appearing in some interesting movies & tv shows as of lately, like:

- Transformers 2007 (movie)

- Knight Rider (tv coming out this year on NBC, me cant wait)

- Bullitt (new movie is set to be released this year, prob a remake on the old? )

It's a real pitty we can't buy this car here, especially when $AUS dollar is on par with $US

What i don't seem to understand is, a base model GT Premium costs $27k in US (say AUS $30k) brand new.. that is considered to have a relatively farken bargain price tag here in Oz.

By the time we one ships down to Aus, it's triple the price? Had a look at mustangmotorsport.com.au (a company who imports mustangs) and the median figure is at $80k for a second hand car, WTF?

RHD conversions arent uber cheap... you could import one yourself and do the conversion yourself if you wanted to to save on cash... then you have the luxury car tax, import duty etc etc it soon ads up.

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

Yeah not bad, suprisingly it still looks or keeps the hard lines of the older model.

Talking to some ppl in the USA this is just another Mustang riced up and they drop their superchargers in and say it faster than the Nissan GTR R35. HA! ok, ok wateva... Also the knightrider mustang = rice, how many spoiler / vents do you want?

Plus by the time I spend the money on converting it I could get something else better IMO.

bullitt 2008 is just a limited make of the car not another movie

ie slap a badge on woo

[chris_r31]

this is the only new shaped mustand i would ever want

[eMsta]

that car is actually perfect for knight rider - it looks way more muscular than the transam (but then again, the 80s was transam era - cos mustangs were more feminine)

Fool.

Brad Pitt's Bullitt

Brad Pitt will star in a remake of 60s classic movie 'Bullitt'.

The 'Ocean's Thirteen' actor will take the role of Lt Frank Bullitt made famous by Hollywood legend Steve McQueen in the 1968 original film.

A source said: "Brad shares a lot of the same passions as Steve McQueen - including a love of motorbikes and fast cars - so it was a dream role for him."

The original film sees the tough detective hunting a hitman who has killed his fellow officers. The movie is renowned for featuring one of the best car chases in cinema history as McQueen's Mustang car speeds through the rollercoaster streets of San Francisco.

Brad, 43, has been linked with the role since 2003 but the project has only now been given the green light as film bosses desperately try to kick-start as many movies as possible before the Screen Actors Guild begin their anticipated strike action.

Brad can next be seen playing legendary outlaw Jesse James in the western 'The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford', due out in October.

The base model Mustangs have a 4.6 OHC v8, however, the upper specs (GT500, Saleen, Shelby etc..) have the 4.6, 5.0 or 5.4 DOHC supercharged pumping out 403kw or more, so it is possible.

" 403kw 5.4L Supercharged V8 engine, 6-speed manual transmission, Ford Racing performance exhaust, Performance suspension tuning, Carbon composite Shelby bonnet, 40th Anniversay badging & much more. "

if Bullitt doesnt have a new shape Charger in it, or seeing as the new model chargers are gayer then a gay man eating another gay mans arse, a Viper, then its a waste of time
