[QUOTE="TerminatoRS, post: 16406189, member: 195778"] In the interest of gathering info... Why a Bullitt? Are you looking at it as a potential investment/collector one day? Instead of the Cobra buried in bikes and toys, will just be the new car instead regardless of its roof? Why not just get a GT? Change to Bullitt style wheels, meet in the middle, and save yourself a few bucks. My two cents: Keep the Cobra. It's paid for so it can sit all you want it to without feeling guilty. Obviously maintain it so it runs and drives. Personally, Bullitts never appealed to me. I don't flat out dislike them, but I see them as more of a marketing ploy and a way for Ford to dig an extra few grand out of your pocket. Much like a youngster these days sees a yellow with black stripes 5th gen Camaro and thinks of Transformers, the Bullitt is kind of the same thing for those who have been around long enough or know about the movie. Sure it's going to stand out from a regular GT to those who know what to look for, but aside from some appearance and interior changes, you're still just getting a more expensive GT. No, the Cobra isn't nearly as modern and plush, but that's part of its appeal. Just like so many of us still love a 60's or 70's muscle car; they're all business and no fluff. Plus you don't see them every day, they're creeping up in value, the market is like 3 to 1 for wanted versus selling ads, and anyone who has had one usually wishes they'd kept it. [/QUOTE]
