It’s America’s best-selling sports car for the last 50 years, and the world’s best-selling sports car over the past three years straight. This American iconic made car legacy continues to build as Ford celebrates their 10 millionth Mustang with the return on the astonishing Bullitt.
The Bullitt makes its mark on history with a 460 horsepower 2019 Wimbledon White GT V8 six-speed manual convertible equipped with the latest driver assist technology and built at Ford’s Flat Rock Assembly Plant in Michigan. The first serialized Mustang (VIN 001) produced in 1964 was the same color and model with a three-speed automatic transmission and 164 horsepower V8.
“Mustang is the heart and soul of this company and a favorite around the world,” said Jim Farley, president of global markets, Ford Motor Company. “I get the same thrill seeing a Mustang roll down a street in Detroit, London or Beijing that I felt when I bought my first car – a 1966 Mustang coupe that I drove across the country as a teenager. Mustang is a smile-maker in any language.”
The history of the ‘stang dates back to 1964, where Ford doubled their sales within two years of the sports car being available on the market.
