The 650 is a bit taller and the nose isn't as "aggressive" vs the 550 to me. And that kinda translates into that rendering. I do like the car from the rear quarter panels and tail end. I do not care much for the rear diffuser area.....looks way to cheap. Good thing it's just a rendering. Also maybe I'm getting to old to actually like the S650 as it is or for what it is.

Im having issues with the link filling in 100%, but the affiliate links about the s550 & the artist who rendered it all open up ok for us. Thats ok.

I will take your word for it that the 650 'Litt is a cool looking car. The S550 was certainly a great concept, & only lacked a few little things that could have really put it Over The Top.

A closer ratio transmission would have been ideal. Not a higher mpg ratio'd grist mill.
A better quality transmission w/closer ratios, (almost anything but the MT82D4),

Also, a bit more tire in back & front, or even go outside of typical thinking, & square up the 4 tire sizes, for this special edition car.

The powerplant itself was a borderline better offering than the GT350, if you live in reality. The no emblems (except rear dog dish) & no rear wing fit the Bullitt theme extraordinarily well. I enjoyed watching people in more remote areas of the country walking all the way around oirs & couldn't exactly figure out what they are looking at.

No emblem grill/sides is 🤯 🔫 - 👌 for the concept. If only they would have gotten with Dodge to have them build a Charger version of the 440 car in the movie, to create some rivalry.

Rivalry is what really creates passion and helps sell cars. Enthusiasts want that competition to jaw on.

I never would have wanted the Shelby if they had given the car the transmission ratios it deserves. They must keep fleet mileage up, & they (Ford) got popped on the Bullitt, & had to change the EPA mileage rating from '19 to '20 model, killing off 1 mpg, from the Intake, Throttle body, & tune. & that fleet mileage thing drives nearly everything being built today, unfortunately.

That's why we should all thank Ford Mtr Co for building the Mach E & Maverick hybrid. Anything/Everything they do to offset the fleet numbers, allows a few more yrs of a few cool cars, before the people running this regime try to continue to accelerate the ban of Combustion engs. Which we will still have by year 2040, even though they wont admit it yet... The expectations of this current Whitehouse is beyond living in reality.

Globally, Germany & a few other European nations are literally destroying themselves & there rich history of manufacturing, by trying to shove this Green agenda down everyone's throat. It's going to damage the German economy so badly, that it will take a decade to recover from it.

The Bullitt is a great car, thats somewhat lost upon younger generations. Those who didn't grow up in that ~'70 era of holding onto your muscle car, vs buying new, cuz the offerings of the 70s & 80s was terrible from all manufacturers, & the Japanese wanted to sell cars that were less roomy, & offered higher milage, in 2 fuel crisis, in 1 decade.

Enjoy these cars guys & gals. You're living in the end of the greatest time in automobile history. Better than the late '60s muscle car era even. Our Shelby GT500 & our Bullitt both can outrun all that stuff from that era, which obviously it should, 50 yrs later.
Even the famed Boss 429, nor the 426 Hemmroid Cuda/Charger, could hold a candle to these cars we have access to nowadays.

Better enjoy every minute of it!

Good for you!

Not being fooled by dat artists rendering 😉, & its lack of believable legitimacy .

Nobody's getting over on you with the clickbait crap of another person's imagination!

How dare they envision something that is not real !

Dat could be a totally legit hate crime in todays world.
The nerve of someone drawing an imaginary S650 & posting it for others to see 🤔?

Because mental masturbation is such an awesome investment of one's intellectual capacity and time.

I guess I shouldn’t have looked at that rendering of the S550 back before it was released! 😜😜

I really wish Ford did this or a Boss package instead of the Darkhorse. The Darkhorse is cool, but I prefer the legacy of the Bullitt, Boss or Mach 1 packages.
