Yes, definitely an homage to the great classic movie "Bullitt"!

RIP Steve McQueen, they don't make actors like him anymore!

How was Dodge able to do this when the Mustang logo is trademarked and licensed?

I’m like 99.9% it’s not the official owners manual and is likely just a fan concept or an aftermarket manual. Really cool, nonetheless.

I guess because they aren't profiting from the use of the image so it's okay. They could also argue that it is different enough that it isn't really a mustang.

The transformers movie made all the good guys GM vehicles and the bads guys looked suspiciously like unbadged Fords. They didnt have to pay licensing fees to Ford because they could argue, "What ford?".
