looks like the new Ford Mustang Bullitt is the car to check out this year (Nov 16-25).

specs: 4.6-liter, V8 engine tuned to deliver 315 horsepower
colors: only available in dark green & black
starting price: $31,075
perks: bragging rights since there will only be 7,700 produced
available: January 2008

the movie car scene chase that inspired this special edition Mustang. for the impatient folks, start it at 1:30, otherwise watch the whole thang. :p


the 2nd car worth a looksie is the Dodge Viper SRT10 ACR for a mere $100,000. no biggie, right? :laugh:

specs: 8.4-liter, 600-horsepower V-10 engine
perks: bragging rights that car is street-legal version of the Dodge Viper SRT10 race car
available: Q2 2008

expect to see these other cars at the Auto Show.

the price is nice for the mustang...and it looks great too!

the dodge...meh, im not too fond of it. the styling needs to get updated or something (looks the same after all these years), and i know the engine can crank out more than 600HP from 8.1 freaking liters...if mercedes can do it with their S/CL/SL65 AMG cars, im sure dodge can take a thing or two from them as well.

I'm not really a fan of Mustangs, or should I say most people who drive them. You know, the tough-guy, hat on backwards, one hand on the steering wheel, music blasting, peeling out at red lights type person. :p

Only 7,700 produced. Thats funny. I guess when you sell 150,000+ Mustangs a year 7,700 isn't all that much.
