The KR is a beast, and just make me grin whenever I drive it, but best value, and best daily driver vote goes to the Bullitt.



WOW just... WOW
Bullitt FTW!

Wow, That blue Dan Gurney Saleen is a beautiful car! But my vote for the best '05-'09 is the Bullitt. Most bang for the buck and most driveable. I'd had my eye on the new Stangs since the '05 came out. When I read about the upcoming Bullitt, I decided that was the one for me! I did my research, found a dealer that wasn't trying to get above sticker, and ordered one! No. 4336 just had her 2nd birthday-I took delivery just 2 weeks after her born on date! Now at 8300 miles (I have other cars ) the exhaust has gotten throatier and mileage has increased. I'm really enjoying this car.

Yeah, we are all prejudiced for our cars. So, my vote was obvious. I think we can all agree on one thing - you can't go wrong with any Mustang!

I just did my patriotic duty and voted. The Bullitt is at 41 now. 3 more votes and we will be double the votes of the second place CS.

Modern Torque Thrust D interpretation in Dark Argent Gray. Same color as the calipers. Beats those obnoxious red calipers.

the machined lip is cool.

I'm with you on this. These wheels are perfect for the S197.

Bullitt wheels are awesome on the s197.

I just wish they came in 10" so they hold wider tires, and that machine lip is
