I can't believe that it has been almost a year since I've joined ME, i've met a lot of great people and have learned so much. As most of you know for that year I didn't have a Mustang, i have been working so hard toward getting it, and it finally happened today. I finally got my first Mustang, a 2001 Mustang Bullitt. I figured it would be fitting to post here because even when i joined the forum a year ago i didn't even introduce myself, i just jumped right in.

Its in pretty good shape, and has just under 140k on the odometer. The first owner did mostly freeway miles and averaged about 19k per year so thats where most of it came from. I got it this morning, but was so occupied detailing it and driving it around everywhere that I completely forgot about ME and even facebook.

I know all of you are waiting for it, so here are some pictures, and i'm going to go to bed now, its been a super long day. I will take more pictures tomorrow using my dads nice camera, these are from my iPhone 5.

PS: I already did my first mod, the front license plate delete lol.

Bullitts are special edition mustangs made in limited quantities in 01 and 08 I believe. They are tributes to Steve Mqueen in the Movie Bullitt. Correct me if I'm wrong though. Their basically lightly modified GT's

They're a GT with retro gauges, shifter, seats, and the base Mustang bumpers with a GT drive train. The Bullitt also has a Bullitt specific intake on the new edge Mustangs that has some more power. The S197 Mustang also has a different brushed aluminum dash on it than a normal GT.

The '01 is also lowered slightly with Cobra brakes and subframe connectors

The funniest thing you might be surprised to know, is that the Bullitt received the V6 rear sway bar to reduce oversteer from the extra power due to the modifications. I'm thinking ford was expecting more impressive HP gains.

01, 08 and 09. So you could say that the name "Bullitt" is more rare than Cobra or Shelby... I may only be 18 in High School but i'm going to try to keep this forever. They only made 5582 Bullitts in 2001, i've got #5394

Yup, NE GTs have 260 horsepower and 302 pounds of torque, Bullitts have 270 horsepower (i believe) and 315 pounds of torque.

And a retuned exhaust from the factory. Sounds pretty good for being factory.

A new Bullitt just joined. An 08 I believe. He just posted a couple pics in the let me see your Bullitt thread. There are a couple more, but they aren't very active on the forum. We're a rare breed.
