I care about infotainment
I have always liked the Bullitt cars. I am seriously thinking of selling the GT350 in the spring and orderings a Bullitt. And yes, the A10 would be fine with me. It's going to come down to how the car is optioned. Magride, A10, and active exhaust will likely seal the deal for me.
If the Bullitt is similarly spec'd to the PP2 (and similarly priced) I would have a hard time keeping my plan to stick with my 2016 for the long haul.

Am I the only one who hated the Demon buildup?

It was like getting hints every day up to christmas, then opening your presents on christmas just to already have known exactly what you're getting. I like the element of surprise, makes things more exciting

Have you received any info yet about the new Bullitt being available in Canada as well? I believe the 2008's were back in the day. I'm asking because I plan on buying mine in Canada.
I haven't, no... I'm sure it will be, though. The 08's def were. We sold one through our dealership, and one of the guys I work with still owns it. Beautiful cars.

No. It got to the point that before the car was even released I stopped caring.

100% agree, I felt the same exact way. I love the way ford does it... keep it under wraps for as long as possible with maybe a subtle peek every now and then, then just drop a bomb at a random time. I think it's great at building up spontaneous hype, and ultimately helps the cars sell better since the hype comes closer to the release date

Ford to reveal 2018 Bullitt Mustang at Detroit auto show

DETROIT -- Ford Motor Co. is planning a surprise reveal of a special edition, high-performance Bullitt Mustang GT at next week's Detroit auto show, Automotive News has learned.

The Bullitt will be unveiled as a 2018 model, a source said, timed for the 50th anniversary of the eponymous Steve McQueen movie that made the car an icon among enthusiasts.

Ford spokesman Mike Levine on Wednesday said, "We don’t have any Mustang news to share today but we love the interest in America’s favorite muscle car."

A Bullitt Mustang was not among the vehicles that Ford previewed for media earlier this month.

The 1968 movie Bullitt features an iconic car chase starring McQueen's Highland Green Mustang GT 390 fastback.

The 2018 pony car likely will get similar dark green paint, as well as the five-spoke black wheels with a chrome lip that appeared in the movie, in addition to other unique cosmetic features. It's unclear what the car's performance numbers will be or how many Ford plans to produce in what is sure to be a limited production run.

Ford first sold a Bullitt Mustang in 2001. The car returned in 2008 and 2009.

Rumors of a 2018 Bullitt Mustang have been swirling for months. Spy photographers caught what appeared to be a dark green 2018 Mustang filming a commercial in Chicago late last year. And earlier this week, a Mustang forum unearthed an auction-site listing for a "special new Ford Mustang" to be sold on Jan. 19. The listing says all proceeds will go to Boy's Republic, an all-boys school in California that boasts a notable alumnus: Steve McQueen.

Don't think it can be a 2018... Unless they are only producing 1968 copies. Then there would be no order option just allocation to dealers.

If they open ordering for them next week there's still almost 2 months left to order 2018s and plenty of time to build more than 1,968 of them if they want.

It's not in the 2018 brochure, so I doubt they'll be 2018s.
