Vehicle Detail

2001 Mustang GT Bullitt Factory variant Limited Edition "Bullitt" A chance to own an extremely low mileage (24,990) first year introduction Bullitt variant Mustang GT. A limited production throwback built by Ford to honor the 1968 Fastback driven by Steven McQueen in the movie “Bullitt” which iconicity featured the Mustang in a high speed chase that captivated every gear-head as it graced the silver screen. It is impressive that Ford gave the GT some one-off styling cues that were not only in the looks department, but also in the performance department. Ford tweaked up the GT's horsepower and addressed firmer and lower suspension. This Bullitt comes with its Window Sticker and Owners Manual and Bullitt Promotional Handout. It has been signed by Chad McQueen, Steve McQueen's son on the dash. It was also signed by the visionary behind the car, Scott Hoag, on the shock tower. This car also attended the 2006 Bullitt Nationals and was a part of the Bullitt Owners Club and still wears its badge to show it. This example does come with the only option that was available, the Mach 460 Sound System. This GT Bullitt has been well cared for its entire life as referenced by its miles, paint and interior condition and overall vibe. Nothing to knock, complain about or list that puts this ride in need of repair. Has a clear and mileage verifying Autocheck. Purchased straight from a Cinema Vehicle house in California. There were two, one that went to a movie producer and one (the lower mileage version) that we were able to acquire. Although, they had two matching Bullitts, as they usually do for big production Movie or TV show we were unable to ascertain what commercial, TV show or movie they were used on. It is quite possibly they were used on a show that hasn't aired yet or maybe just never used. But you will get a copy of the title showing that it did come from a Cinema Vehicle company should something later in time arise. So there you have it, a low mileage well cared for piece of Mustang GT history! In excellent condition with only a few signs of wear such as some scratches on the corner of the drivers side front bumper, some rock chips on the hood and some seat wrinkles in the leather, as they all would. The tires appear to be the original Goodyears. Truly a well cared for vehicle. One of less then 6000 Bullitt’s built of which 3041 were finished in the screen used Dark Highland Green (only available on Bullitt edition cars) and ended up being the lowest production color across the complete Mustang Platform in 2001.

It was reminiscent of the 1968 390 fastback model driven by Steve McQueen in the 1968 movieBullitt which became famous for its high speed chase. The car was designed as a good handler so it was lowered 3/4 of an inch, received Tokico shocks, and short length sub-frame connectors. In addition, a new intake design, high-flow mufflers, and special underdrive pulleys helped increase the power to a conservative 265 hp (198 kW), though many owners report numbers closer to the 270-275 range. More telling is the torque curve, which was vastly improved over the base GT models, 90% of its 305 lb·ft (414 N·m) available from 2000 rpm. This broader torque curve makes itself known at the drag strip, as these special edition Mustangs could cover the 1/4 mile in 2-3 tenths of a second quicker and about 2 mph (3 km/h) faster than regular GT. 17-inch American Racing Torq-Thrust style rims, wrapped in 245/45ZR performance rubber by Goodyear, were reminiscent of those on the car driven by McQueen in the movie. The Bullitt featured a large hood scoop reminiscent of the earlier Boss 429 scoop, as well as new side scoops, lower body moldings and C-pillars with unique rear side window shape. Other special features on the Bullitt included aluminum pedals and shifter, gauge facings and seat upholstery patterned after the 1968 model, red brake calipers with the Mustang logo on them, and the removal of the spoiler and fog lamps regularly found on Mustang GTs, all for a cleaner look. Braking was also improved with the addition of dual-piston PBR brakes with 13-inch (330 mm) rotors, the same brakes utilized by the 94-04 Mustang Cobra. The Bullitt Mustang was offered in only three colors: Dark Highland Green (the same shade of green used in the famous movie "Bullitt" starring Steve McQueen), Black, and True Blue. Total production was 5,582 units (3,041 Dark Highland Green, 1,819 Black, and 722 True Blue).
