ShelbyCobra826 Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 Don't know if this has been posted yet or not, but my new Automobile magazine (Feb. 08) had a short article on the new Bullitt (pg. 38) and mentioned it relative to the Shelby GT. Relevant section is copied below: "Both in price and in performance, the Bullitt falls between the basic Mustang GT and the Shelby GT. Its styling, shorter final-drive ratio, and the more deep-throated American V-8 sound are all bonuses compared with the base GT, but its slightly modified suspension isn't nearly as balanced as the setup in the Shelby GT." Glad that they didn't comment on where exactly where the new Bullitt falls in price between the Mustang GT and the Shelby GT, but I would purchase the Shelby all over again tomorrow if I had the chance...

riharely Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 I really don't get all the Bullitt hype. The movie car thing just doesn't do it for me. Yes, Steve McQueen was a cool guy. Yes, the green Mustang was cool in movie but so was the Charger. That's about it. I can't think of anything else! <_< lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just saying that the Bullitt is a great performance car for the money and that Shelby was over priced about 3-4 K for what we got. Love my SGT, but a few grand less would have made it all that much sweeter- I really don't get all the Bullitt hype. The movie car thing just doesn't do it for me. Yes, Steve McQueen was a cool guy.
