Ford Mustang Top Speed 2019
For the 2019 model year, the Bullitt is the most expensive non-Shelby option in the Mustang range. Pricing starts at $46,595 excluding destination, and as you already know, the special edition comes with the most powerful Coyote V8 available these days in a series-production Ford.
The 5.0-liter engine features 20 more horsepower than standard, leveling up to 480. The gearing of the six-speed manual transmission enables a top speed that's eight miles per hour higher compared to the Mustang GT, translating to 260 km/h in the metric system. Dutch motoring magazine Auto Top tested the Bullitt on the Autobahn, and the pony didn't disappoint.
Burbles and pops are two other specialties of the Bullitt, which comes with a quad-tip performance exhaust system with active valves. The 3.73 limited-slip rear axle with a Torsen design also translates to great handling in the twisties and an acceleration to 100 km/h in 4.6 seconds. Even at this price point, the Bullitt can be upgraded with go-faster options such as the MagneRide damping system.
Coming with 19-inch Heritage wheels wrapped in 255/40 and 275/40 summer-only tires, the special edition doesn't feature ambient lighting and memory function for the driver's seat or side mirrors. Those are also optional, along with the voice-activated satellite navigation and B&O premium audio system with 12 speakers and HD Radio.
But wait, there's more! The Ford Motor Company is much obliged to charge extra for Recaro sport seats with Dark Highland Green accent stitching and the Bullitt Electronics package. Believe it or not, the package includes blind-spot information with cross-traffic alert, a system that comes standard in lesser vehicles than the Mustang Bullitt.
Dealer mark-ups are another thing worth mentioning, and if you can't settle for less than the Shelby GT500, prepare to pony up in excess of $97,995 for a well-equipped model. All things considered, there's no denying the Mustang is a different animal from the original from the 1960s.
