Newest update is a leaked video with the "Rock" showing a Bullitt version of the 2018 MY.

Subaruwrxfan is a guy I watch on youtube and he's a huge Mustang fan.

It's pretty cool to see a new Bullitt if it's true in the latest gen, but I will always stick to what I have said in the past, Ford should have left the Bullitt name plate alone after the '01 model year. Would have left it more exclusive that way in my opinion.

But how cool would it be to own an 01, 08, and 18. It would actually be an affordable collection for many.

If Ford were to have only did one more run of Bullitt then it should have been the '08. At least with the retro look it resembled the original somewhat.
Neither the '01 nor the '18 (if they build it) are close.

I think the nostalgia is a great marketing tool though for old and new mustang enthusiasts alike.
I agree though that too much dilutes the rarity of it.
A one or two year model run per generation platform is the max they should do of any CS, Bullitt, Mach 1, Boss, etc....

Maybe limited runs of how many years they're built, but I'd rather see Ford build as many as they can sell......them cars is fer a driven', not a parkin'. lol

Limited production leads to price gouging as demand exceeds production, proven many times, if you build as many as you can sell, you sell more, and you make more money overall.

Plus, more enthusiasts get to enjoy the product, leading to more customers. Seems simple right?
