Finally after 1 1/2 hrs of total 100% runaround I say just give me a sales manager so I can please get a frickin answer on HOW MUCH FOR THE BULLITT and HOW MUCH FOR MY TRADE, IS THAT SO HARD?! The answer on the Bullitt was ADM. The answer on my trade was "what do you owe on it?" I'm thinking OMG now we're going there? Yeah I'm gonna buy a car from you

Anyway, not a wasted trip though because oh man I LOVE THAT CAR!!! I'm psyched!!! It looks so much better in person!! If the dealer near me is serious about x-planning it, I'm ordering one tomorrow!!
Good luck Lynda. You made the right choice! And no problem on the help. Glad to help a fellow member out. Make sure you check your PM inbox!

It's the same as the '08 GT

The IP is a polarizing feature: love/hate. I'd think the leather wrapped dash from the Premium Trim pack would have worked better: though lots of people do like the engine turn one
I loved it actually!!

Shifter: how did they change it from 08 GT? Is it just the stalk and ball? Or is it the FRPP Hurst? or what? Everyone whos driven it has commented on the shifter and I haven't heard anything on the change other than the satin metal ball....
Asked about that - it's not the hurst, the stalk and ball are just different. However I read there were some changes to the trans. to get rid of the slop, bit no one at the dealer today could tell me exactly what. Supposedly the service manager where I'm going tomorrow to order is a mustang gearhead/enthusiast, so I'm going to ask him.

Yeah, I'm sure I've got multiple personalities - I would love the IP with the Engine Turned aplique or the charcoal aplique.

I'm pretty curious about the transmission though.

Good decision and good luck with the order process - let us know how it turns out!

You've inspired me - I'm gonna try my local dealers for one that'll do an x-plan & a low order priority number. The dealers that are fixated on ADMs are showing how little they're paying attention to the market right now....

As a number of folks have reported with their later build '07 GTs, I believe the improvement was to the shifter mechanism to smooth out the action and make it easier to get into gear. I think the transmission remains unchanged.

Correct me If I'm wrong, but weren't the seats supposed to be of a different stitching than stock? Looks the same to me. At least they kept the gt500 style steering wheel.

All the reviews I read said it had the GT500 style seats - not in terms of stitching or aesthetics, but with extra support in the side bolsters.

It does have different seats - most noticable was the stitching on the sides is different. Should have taken pics..sorry!

Way to go Lynda I hope you get one!

If you really want fogs maybe you can get some that will fit the lower grille like for the SGTs?
In a notehr link , the one asking for aBullitt VIN, there is a read out for a Bullitt and it indicates Fogs are active so I'm guessing all wiring is there.

- At the rate I want to keep buying cars, I will exhaust that and have to work until I am 115 years old!
