They could save money on a hood by painting a GT500 one body colored.

A GT500 front is too much flash for SMQ's stripped down '68 beater GT that roars theme.

But at least Bullitt was never disgraced with that bulky 10-12 loaded diaper black plastic rear end.

Since the BOSS is a '12/'13 only model, they should do a '14 Bullitt that's mechanically a BOSS but solid DHG with subtle interior Bullitt cues.

Although that's wildly speculated, it hasn't been confirmed yet 100%.

My take-

Engine/Drivetrain:Coyote 302 with unique FRPP tune, 7200rpm redline, and air filter, Torsen 3.73 rear end, and Boss adjustable suspension with a slight drop. Brembo brakes with gloss black/highland green font calipers & Boss 302 pads, GT500/Boss 302 exhaust with FRPP X-pipe.

Interior: Recaros with crosshairs stitched in, satin finish trim, Sync, etc. Include a special "Highland green" color of the MyColor for the gauges and ambient lighting.

Exterior: spoiler delete, badgeless grille, Boss style rear diffuser, and a modern twist on the Bullitt wheels (19x9.5F, 19x10R). Instead of the pony projection puddle lamps, have the crosshair logo projected out. Hood similar to MRT Hotload/Reload package from '08-09.
Alright Ford you heard the man!

Looks Great, if you don't work for Ford you should. I'll do this myself if the factory doesn't.

OK, even if Ford won't give us an official '14 Bullitt...........how about DHG or something very similar as a '14 colour?

If there is any truth to some rumors out there the GT500 will end with the S-197 and the Cobra will be back with the next gen Mustang.

Some other things I thought about:
-Brembo brakes (gloss black/Highland green writing)
-FRPP strut tower brace with VIN plate
-GT500/Boss axle-backs


So, if it really wanted to be done, I think there'd be minor development work needed to make it happen. I don't want a Boss painted green, but I think with enough parts out of various bins from current cars, they could really make one heck of a nice sendoff in '14. It's a pipe dream, but you never know what can happen.

I love these suggestions and have had thoughts along the same lines, including a Bullitt that was essentially an understated Boss. I lusted for an '08-'09 Bullitt but couldn't make it happen. I wonder how feasible a '14 Bullitt would be with a N/A 5.8?

Not possible. Others have mentioned a N/A 5.8 motor would essentially be a new motor, which would require a massive amount of work. Using an existing motor and some in-house modifications, as well as parts from higher level models, would be a cheaper, easier way to come out with this.
