Yes, the Bullitt price was $32K, then it had the adjustment of $41K for the "Bullitt Package". I understand that it's supposed to be discrete and low profile, sort of like a sleeper right? But I'd be more impressed if it had a more than 400HP under the hood without badges I justthink some people would be offended if they owned a Bullitt and someone came up to them asking if it was a V6. I know GT guys who get offended when that happens... But yea, the seats were much more comfortable! I live in a small town called Tracy, about 50 miles away from the Ford Store, San Leandro.

The hole idea of a sleeper!

They have one in my area and it's priced at 34,000 and that's with the mark up. I like the car myself. I sure like to know if it's faster than my moded 05 GT. One thing is for sure after all mybolt-ons andinterior mods,I'm sure mine cost just as much if not more.

Dealer in my area has a few thousands of ADM too. They had a black one and frankly I was not impressed at all. But it's understated on purpose.

They had a blue/silver stripes Shelby GT which looked really good in comparison, but with even more ADM.

give me the Bullitt. It's the $hit. Who ever is going to forget Steve McQueen and that great car chase. Love the conservative look. I'm 47 not 27.

They had a Vista Blue Shelby GT with Silver stripes parked next to the Bullitts where I looked. I was more interested in the Shelby GT, which had the same ADM at $41K.

I have to admit that black one with silver stripes is ****ing pretty awesome.

41k? wow, that's a lot of money, considering the GT is around 30k, I heard it's not much different, plus there aren'tas many options, I would much rather go for a GT, or a Shelby.

I wasn't too impressed with the chase scene. He spun out lost touch with the Charger. No way the stang forced that heavy weight Charger off the road. For a chase scene, I liked John Wayne in McQ.

Dude that's why it's a movie. Steve was just ****ing cool and he made it happen kinda of like Earnhardt did in Nascar.
