      Yeah in my GT 6-speed I notice if you wring out 1st and go to 2nd and 3rd then it doesn't sit there and take forever like it was when they tried to floor it in 3rd. The transmission feels like it has multiple shift modes: light acceleration, short shifting, and pedal to the floor.

    Yuri, Steve McQueen was the poster boy for coolness. He was the real deal. Not just an actor, but a legit racer. And without traction control, anti-lock, etc. etc. Open your mind to understand and appreciate history and the people who were products of their times.

    • @rosewood1

      Absolutely Steve was a real racer. And you have to watch the movie. The action is real not CGI and to this day is still one of the very best driving sequences.

    • @moogle68
      @moogle68 Рік тому +4

      The feeling of something in the moment is irreplaceable. I can watch Bullit as many times as I want, with as much contextual knowledge of Steve McQueen and the way society was when it was released, but it will *never* compare to being there when it happened, or being a _kid_ when it came out. I agree that Yuri and Jakub should know who Steve McQueen is and why he is important in car culture if they are going to be making a living doing car reviews for members of said car culture, but it's just unreasonable to expect newer generations to ever be able to fully appreciate events that were before their time. There is just too much context and sensory information that people constantly take in for someone to _truly_ understand and appreciate events that they were not alive to experience in person.

    • @texanfournow

    You are car guys, watch the entire movie lol. Steve McQueen is a Legend. Lot's of interesting facts about that movie too. Like Steve McQueen did a lot of his own driving (until he crashed and his wife begged the director to get a stunt driver) which pissed McQueen off. The reverse burn out shot that you guys replicated wasn't scripted. That chase scene set the bar for future car chases too.

      Same here...late 20's and I don't really watch old movies otherwise. But, Steve McQueen is great....he plays his characters very entertainingly well and he does almost all of his own stunts. The only one that I can think of that he didn't was jumping that motorcycle in Great Escape..and that was for legal reasons lol. Also, not only did he do all of that driving through San Francisco, he did it in a car that takes a lot more skill to drive than today's comparable cars. I hope that they see these comments and actually watch the entire movie. I don't get how such car people could not appreciate Steve McQueen much more.

And the iconic chase scene was all in 1 take, in the real streets on SF, with no visual FX, and none of it was sped up like most other movies in the 60s. Steve McQueen is a movie and action star legend. Sure, he quit in 1969, but a man who did all his own stunts, and was well known as one of the best actors of the time, reminds me of an action star today...

      Vladi pasman wasn’t such a great movie... maybe back in the 70s when it first came out, but pretty boring compared to modern movies.
      And the car chase scene at the end is pretty blah... Watch Ronin a movie from the 90s starring Robert Dinero... now THAT movie has an epic car case scene... Also Bourne Identity (the first movie). I could also name a bunch of other movies that had way better car chase scenes than Bullitt

    Put your tech down and watch the movie in full; the car chase is a thing of beauty. Gone in 60 seconds is another good car chase movie, but not as good as Bullitt. As far as it relates to current generation, meh, younger gen X and all of gen Y will have trouble relating to Bullitt, especially if you're not a car guy/gal. It should be noted the majority of people buying these cars are boomers or older gen x-ers anyways, so it still resonates with them.
    On the traction control thing, people need to learn how to drive; turn off the nannies, and hit a track day or two. If you can afford a mustang GT, you can afford track days. The chassis in this car is so much better than the high horsepower stuff I used to drive, not to mention tire technology has improved significantly; cars are real easy to drive today, and I'm not even that old.

    • @moogle68
      @moogle68 Рік тому

      I think what Jakub said at the end is also very true about Bullit being a movie that not only has a car in a star role, but is deeply entrenched in car culture itself. Transformers is primarily seen as a kid show, so just because they made a live action + CGI blockbuster funded series of movies out of it, it's always going to have that sort of undertone of being "for kids". The transformers Camaro might do alright with hardcore transformers fans/collectors, but aside from that I don't see how it can hope to keep it's value like this Bullit has done so far.

    I saw the movie Bullitt when I was in my late teens, and there was nothing like it at the time. Today's movie goers are too used to CGI where nothing is really plausible and it gets really boring seeing the same excessively over the top crap. Just as I cannot sit through over the top CGI effects in movies today, I understand the current generation's thinking about real action movies with no CGI are boring to them. Each to their own. I still remember how good (unhealthy) hamburgers were made years ago compared to the modern-day mush version. You don't know what you don't know.

The Mustang in the movie was a 68 Mustang GT 390FE big block and top loader 4 spd, it was the muscle car that the everyday guy could afford and wanted badly and in a drag race it could smoke any small block Shelby Mustang. As automotive reviewers you should really brush up on your car knowledge.

"Unfortunately" it is an auto but hey I'll live with that!😂I still smile from ear to ear every time I take it out. The looks it gets from young & old never ceases to amaze me.

    Sorry, but I couldn’t disagree more. The Bullitt Mustang is classy and subtle. Eleanor was gaudy and brash. You’re right, unfortunately Bullitt doesn’t resonate with this generation. It’s slow paced and you have to pay attention to catch the details as the plot unfolds. It’s a classic film with one of the greatest car chase scenes of all time. Steve McQueen is a legend. Coming from nothing and forging a career as one of Hollywood’s most iconic action stars. Not to mention one Hell of a driver in his own right. The new Bullitt pays homage to that legacy. It’s too bad people today don’t take the time to understand that.

    Sorry for the long rant, but come on guys, you should understand the importance of McQueen and car chase scenes. He pretty much created the standard that all other movies live by. If you're not a fan of Bullitt specifically, I could unsderstand that, but not doing research on McQueen is just lazy in my opinion. You're supposed to be car guys who provide hands on, real driving opinions. If you knew anything about McQueen you'd know he was a driver first and actor second. It's been said one of the reasons he became an actor was so he could "race" cars. Kinda like you two doing car reviews on UA-cam. I would assume you guys are doing this for a living because you love cars and not because you love all the "sponsors" who allow you to do this work. Seems like you guys and McQueen may have some things in common, which seems pretty relevant to me.

I'm happy you guys liked the Red Eye but imagine if someone reviewed the Raptor and then kept talking about the Red Eye... really waters down the whole review. Also Bullitt is a good movie, imagine someone reviewing a Delorean and having them say "never saw Back to the Future. I want a Nic Cage for my car movie." Dangerously Cheesy. Keep up the videos guys, but comparing a $50,000 car to a $80,000 car is pretty cheesy. Get the dang ol GT350 or GT500 next time to compare.

    I love the look of the Bullitt! Great appearance package and performance upgrades together. Why did they make the gears so long tho? Still too much hard plastic inside also for a $50k car

    McQueen did some intense motorcycle riding in "The Great Escape". (Which is also a great movie)

    What makes this movie more iconic over all the others is how big it resonated to the car enthusiast as well as the general public at the time it came out and how long it held its status. You just don't get this with movies of today. Sure there are better car chases now, or more explosions etc now. But when Bullett came out, it set a benchmark for its time with some of the biggest names in Hollywood. Steve McQueen was the king of cool who never lost that image, as well he was a real race driver who just resonated with car enthusiasts. Nicolas Cage doesn't have the same weight today that Steve McQueen had back in his day. Most movies and car chases of today even if they are really good, seem to be more of a flavour of the month because they were done before. Kind of like Bruce Lee in Enter the Dragon, are there better martial arts fight scenes since that movie came out, yes, but none may be more iconic because when he did it, how iconic he became and how there had never been anything like it before. Will people talk about Gone in 60 Seconds with Nicolas Cage after almost 60 yrs?

    Come on guys, have some respect for the culture 🤦🏽‍♂️ A lot of your comments made me cringe. Steve McQueen will forever be a god among REAL car enthusiasts. Probably don’t even know that McQueen was an accomplished race car driver either. Seem like a couple of poser car guys imo. This is coming from a millennial btw ✌🏼
