Haha, it was probably me. I'm the only dark green mustang in the area and I drive it as long as it isn't snowy/icy out. So, you'll see me in any other weather. I go up and down scatterfield A LOT, so it was probably me. I'm going to keep an eye out for your ride. There is another member on here that is in Anderson and his GT looks amazing. You only see it out on nice/sunny days.

Mine isn't as much of a garage queen... but with this freaking huge amount of ice we are getting, its clean, under the cover, and in the garage.

Korey

i have become obsessed with this car. My wife wants me to get one ! We just bought a blu-ray player and the first movie I bought was "Bullitt".hahaha.Actually, it looks freaking amazing in HD.

lol, go get one!

Burnrubber, same here. I had title problems with my "beater" and I have to send it to the old owner and have it fixed... so it's not moving. I had to pull my clean bullitt out today and drive it... it's a mess now...

To wally05, I'm picking up Bullitt #2640 tomorrow (62 day wait) and I'm curious how your #1911 is doing after 3 weeks or so. Are things still as great as your first ride home that we read about ? I've been on bullitthead.com forums and see some have a few problems.

All cars will have some problem at some point..

I was wrong about the # of my Bullitt, it's 2740 not 2640 and as far as something going wrong with every car at some point, all I can say is that I bought an '04 GT and an '06 GT and never once had to go back to the dealer for anything but routine maintainence. Am I the exception?

wally05 · 03-26-2008

wow, it's been a few weeks since I've been on here...

Nope, no problems... well, one, but its across the whole 2008 line. If the tranny is really cold from the ambient temps being in the 30s, 40s, it grinds going from 2nd to 3rd unless you're careful. I'm going to switch out the fluid for synthetic when I can. I'm on 950 miles and about to do my first oil change with motorcraft oil and filter.

Other than that, no problems at all.

I might have my dealer look at the tranny issue, but it doesn't bother me too much.
