Sure will. Funny tho..how "wanted" ads show on the Bullitt posting board. Hell, GT's of the same and newer model years are more easily purchased locally. So, my conclusion is that some folks must think there is a cachet. I'll confess that I bought primarily because I didn't like the striped and spoilered "boy racer" looks of the GT's the local dealer had in the showroom at the time. Told the salesman if he couldn't find a Bullitt, I wasn't buying a Mustang. By the way...Bullitts have LSD and a 3:73 rear end. Very comparable performance wise to the Shelby 350 GT of the same year with it's higher rear end ratio.

And let's face it...$25K is still a cheap car...just go look to see what you can buy new for $25K. Not much...something like Cindy's Camry...a great grocery getter.
