Bitter? Hardly! As far as styling goes, I went with the Bullitt because I don't like stripes & spoilers...I loved that "bland" look. I also prefer normally aspirated engines over blowers or turbos.
With 6 years and 20,000 miles behind me, I've found my Bullitt to have been a trouble free well balanced driver. It's mild 315 horsepower is quite adequate for street driving. A collectable Porsche it isn't...and I'm thankful for that.
Been there done that with car gatherings. I find spending time in a nice air conditioned pool hall to be more enjoyable these days.
To each his own...gotta admit, I am tempted with the thought of the new GT350...but then the practical side kicks in. I mean, how much car do I need to get to a pool hall and back home?
