Car buffs the world over, my self included, are rejoicing in Ford's official announcement that a 2008 Bullitt Mustang will be available to order on November 13th. The car will carry a sticker price of $31,075. Ford plans to produce a total of 7,700. Production will begin in early 2008, Ford said. The car will lack exterior badging (giving it the super mean look - or as my girlfriend said when I mentioned I wanted one "make it look like a gangster car"), including exclusion of the pony emblem on the grille. It will come in the awesome Highland Green color, reserved for Bullitts, dark gray break calipers, blacked out grille accented with a silver outline. For those of you that have seen the movie, does Ford do the original justice? I think so! And if you have not seen the movie, you must see it! Even if you are not a car buff, it has the car chase of all car chases, the penultimate movie car chase - so you must see it, not to mention all the footage of old school San Francisco, and of course let's not forget oh so cool, Steve McQueen.
