I've been shopping for a Bullitt for a while now and the people that have the low mileage ones are asking $20k and up. Book values on them are only slightly more than regular GT's, but their answer to this is that Kelley Blue Book does not address/give accurate values for collector cars. Are these cars really going in that price range or is this a case of people trying to unload their collector car for top dollar before the '08 Bullitts hit the dealerships?
By the way, I drove one for the first time today and it blew me away. I could tell night and day differences between the Bullitt and my stock '02 V6 just rolling through the parking lot. Now I'm totally screwed because I want one more now than I did before.

There's going to be an 08 bullitt???
They're not that much faster or better handling that a regular old GT which is why blue-book only says they're run a bit more. But there is a collectors/limited factorthat those Blue book companies don't take into account. Is it really worth it to you to buy a bullitt over a GT? Now a MACH I is a different story.

Bullitt #632 (SOLD)
1998 F150 Nascar Edition (TOTALED, damn deer!)
Got a hold of a 302, starting to rebuild and start over.
Canton, Ohio
I liked this car A LOT. The suspension was extremely tight, better-handling than even my mother's BMW 3. I realize that it seemed as fast as it to me because I'm used to a stock 3.8L, but I can't imagine feeling the need for anything more. As for wanting a Bullitt over a Mach I, I like the styling a lot more.
Not to mention those seats were comfortable. I was surprised. I didn't think there would be any difference.
Going back to the question of value (is it just me or is this forum a little dead?) I've been given a timeline by the wife: I have to wait until after the 2008 Bullitt comes out to purchase a 2001 Bullitt. Are the values likely to go down at all with the release of the new edition?
There's a Bullitt for sale on a lot near my house with 36,000miles going for 15 grand, its one of those "performance car lots" that only sell that type of thing. I've been debating purchasing it but it sounds kind of sketchy to me because theres GTs at the bigger lots going for like 18 with twice that mileage. Who knows, it was probably smashed at some point.

doubt it was smashed, the first bullitt i looked at in summer of 06 was DHG 30k miles, going for 13,000, no salvage or anything, just right at private party bluebook.
