Filed under: Time Warp, Coupes, Sports/GTs, Ford, Celebrities I recently had the opportunity to spend some time driving Ford's modern day interpretation of the Mustang Bullitt and came away wanting one in the worst way. It's true that the late model Mustang has issues, but no other car is able to channel that much soul, charisma and character through its steering column. The only thing better would be an actual 1968 Mustang GT 350 Fastback like the one Steve McQueen actually drove in the film. Fans of the car and McQueen are one step closer to realizing this dream thanks to the McQueen estate, which has authorized the building of official replica Bullit Mustangs in honor of the film's 40th anniversary. Ownership of the Bullit name is shared by the McQueen family and Warner Bros., so we're not sure who would actually build these replica Bullitts, but we'll be first in line when they eventually surface.

i thought the bullit car was just a GT with no emblems, a wood grain wheel out of a shelby and the wheels?
Man, I love that '08 bullitt! Guess I've never really paid much attention to it before. That car is badass. Just needs to be lowered a tick, and it would be perfect.
3 local ford dealers still have 08 bullitts on the lots. msrp is over $33,000 they could be had for 2-3 thou under sticker.
