Ford unveils 2019 Mustang Bullitt at the Canadian International Autoshow

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

Few iconic movie vehicles come close to Steve McQueen's 1968 dark green Mustang used in the movie Bullitt. This year at the CIAS, Ford Canada is celebrating the car's 50 year milestone with a brand new take on this motoring classic.

"Commemorating the 50^th anniversary of the classic movie starring Steve McQueen and his 1968 dark green Mustang, the new 2019 Mustang BULLITT delivers a 5.0L V8 engine with a top speed of 163 mph and at least 475 hp.

A Dark Highland Green exterior and unique front grill with subtle chrome accents provide a nod to the original while maintaining the look that set the standard for cool. Each BULLITT comes standard with the GT Premium Content as well as all the performance features found in the GT Performance Package, the 12-inch digital instrument cluster with MyColor and an active valve performance exhaust with a unique Black NitroPlate finish." Visitors to the show can get up close with the car and likely an original '68 Bullitt.
