You judged a car without even knowing facts about it, then you claim it's overpriced, and that buyers are suckers.
Quality posts?
Silly posts.
This coming from the same guy who put the Modena/Challenge Stradale into the same category as this.
And when I said I didn't read all of the facts, that does not mean I didn't read it completely. I stopped reading when it spent a good paragraph just about all the little badges it dropped.
And I'll stand by what I said. Just like the Shelby GT, it's an overpriced Mustang, and there's better cars for the money. Ohh wowww, it has little suspension tweaks and improved power. Big friggity doo. Like we're going to be seeing a big difference between a Mustang GT. You think I care if you find it silly I call the buyers of this suckers? I don't.
Face it. You're paying $31,000 for a Mustang that just has badges taken off, and enough tweaks to make you think you're getting a beefier Mustang. But in reality, cars of the same price such as the 350Z, G37 Coupe ($2K more), & IS 250, are going to run circles around it.
$31,000 for a Bullitt Mustang? Or $31,000 for a Lexus IS250? Hello Lexus.
Considering that a fully-loaded Mustang GT is only a grand or so behind in MSRP, I think you're making mountains out of mole hills. The fact of the matter is that this is a package that should have been offered earlier, at the very least the color itself, and generally speaking, much of the performance stuff should have been standard trim as well.
I don't necessarily agree with the package, but I do agree that the performance and tweaks should been set as standard equipment used on the Mustang GT.
There is an improved ride quality, apparently better turn-in, and just an overall more settled feeling to the altered chassis. That alone has to be worth something, particularly when, again, a fully-loaded Mustang GT goes for right around the same mark... And I've priced them out nearly as high as $32K on the top-end...
Those cars I mentioned earlier? I'll put money on it they all ride better than the Bullitt.
The problem with the Bullitt is that not only is it 1 of the 1,343,769 models Ford is milking the Mustang for, but that is priced in the range of cars that do everything better than it.
As for the fully loaded GT, I'd take it over the Bullitt too as I'm positive the options with it are a much better buy. And then, in the end, I can just strip the badges off, have it resprayed, and then beef up the power myself.
Thought I'd throw in some cheek.
