I see Aussie cars get adaptive cruise control and autonomous emergency braking. Is that required by law? in N.A. we don't get either...I also see rain sensing wipers, I also didn't think we get those (haven't turned mine on at all yet, si may be wrong on that.

No, not required by law.

Dynamic Stability Control (aka Electronic Stability Control) is required by law down here.

The full vin number for that Bullitt is 1FA6P8V00K5104867 if you want to look it up and print out the full window sticker
Thanks for that! The window sticker on the car doesn't have any of that top row information on it at all.

Not sure what, or if I was thinking. 2019 production did not start until the week of June 18.

So what is the owner going to do with a Bullitt in Australia? Drive it at 50 and 60km/h in Melbourne ? Because if you hit 65, you get done by the paraphernalia of cops and hidden cameras... bang 1 point of your license and over 100 bucks.

That country should be banned for importing anything over a 1.3L engine. Actually, better. Bring guns back, and take care of police :)

Been a while since you were here. It's now over $200 if you're caught doing 64kmh in a 60kmh zone.

One good thing but....the cops here won't shoot you for having a good suntan :)

Yeah but this is due to all exports having to meet road legal & safety restrictions in a variety of countries....not just the US. Eg: the strut brace is a passenger collision concern in some countries, including Australia.....agreed tho, definitely disappointing.
Looks like Australian spec is the same as the UK. Does anyone on here know what is fitted in the 3.55 ratio diff is it fitted with a Traction-Lok or a Torsen the same as the US model ?
