5 bucks says its the Gt/CS front end and rear for the standard GT


hahah
Just kidding I have no idea

I don't think its a BOSS SE mule... reason being...

There were reports of Whineless GT500s running around a while back.
That would be more likely a powertrain mule for a current gen car as the decklid would be high enough for a 5.4 4v ... and wouldn't arrouse suspision.
That car has obvious front end changes to the sides/hood/grille/bumper

And it does have lines that go along with what the ItalStal have...

Ok... so let me rephrase that then.
If the BOSS is on the new redesign then YES it could be a BOSS mule.
It is not the current gen though, because of the body work.

If I'm confusing...i haven't had my coffee/breakfast this morning yet...

Where's Chazcron when you need him!!

Any changes on the 08 will be very minor. What I've been told, the 08 Bullet was at that show as well, and all it is, is a stripped down, green, Mustang GT, with a minor H.P. increase and no grill.

I knew I missed you guys and all of your excitement over simple camo and no report from who saw the thing in person.

From this picture we really don't know anything. Fog light positioning is simply to move it out of the way of the camo. The wheels, of course, are not the wheels that will be on the '10 Mustang, just something out of the workshop to test with. Engine is anyone's guess. You guys never cease to amuse with your bickering over something none of us really know.

The 08 Bullit was at the Ford Employee Show in Detriot.

The spy photos seem to show the same car with a redone front end.

What he's telling you is a total fantasy. Yes, the '08 is supposed to get a minor (read: minor) front end sheetmetal change. But that's pretty much it.
Sounds like the same "fantasy" you have been telling... At least have a reason (current ) to bash us; some of us DO know sh*t, and some well ahead of others. I still remember being called a liar after I drove a pre-production 05 in March 04...

For 2008 there will be 10,000 Bullits produced. Highland Green, no spoiler, no fogs, different grille and I believe 10-15 more stock HP.

Other than that it is the same as the '07.

For '09 and the complete redesign... there are definite design cues from the G concept in Detroit right now. With most noteably the front end styling cues.

I hope not....
I just hope they take certain cues like the hips, the rear end lip, the front end/Shelby slant... and apply it to the existing car with some updated lines.

So why don't you start photoshoping there busta?

Point being, I don't think we know for sure WHAT we're looking at in those pics.
It's a Mustang with a bra on it! Duh!

I just hope it doesn't look too good. I can't afford another one yet.

I hate it when they do that. Just as you're ready to jump in and buy, they reveal the next latest, greatest thing...and of course, you just gotta have it.

I agree with Rapture and if the 09-10 retains much of the retro/current S-197 theme with hips ? then I'll more than likely want to get one..But I have no intentions of getting rid of my current 05. I personally don't have any complaints and have been quite happy with it, just the way it is..Well except for hips of course and the greenhouse isn't sloped into the trunk area, ala 67-68 but those are just minor details IMHO...
