^^^^ I see you’ve been looking at the photo heavy thread in the Bullitt sub-forum. Some good photos in there of the US Bullitt.

You won’t have to paint the mufflers as all export mustangs get the black under body spray all over the exhaust and mufflers

Cool....although that stuff is untidy, it does the job. Not sure it'll do the job well enough to meet my exacting standards though :).

Speculation time (as usual with the export Bullitt!).

The USDM GT's have a 155mph top speed and a 160mph speedo. The Bullitt with it's extra 20hp and 8mph boost to the top speed has a 180mph speedo.

USDM GT speedo:

Now the Australian 2018 GT Mustang has a 260kph speedo (which converts to 161.5mph, meaning the export car wins the international Mustang GT speedo bragging rights trophy :):

The Australian Bullitt doesn't have the 20hp bump of the US car, we're supposedly getting a 8hp (6kW) leg-up. Even assuming the export Bullitt's are a little faster than their GT brothers, they're still unlikely to beat 260kph as a top speed....though the export 3:55 rear end might shake things up.

My guess/hope is we'll get a 280kph speedo.....??

^^^^Green window sticker, no Bullitt logo on it. No centre gauges.

Thanks for posting those Eric. Bit disappointing inside, looks like we miss out on the centre gauges and the different finish on the aluminium trim.

Still, a good pointer to what we’ll get here in Oz.

Agree on the gauges, but it was what we were expecting. The Bullitt specific "Spindrift" finish on the aluminium dash fascia might be there....I can see evidence of it on the far right of the panel on the return next to the RH vent. But, I could just be seeing things :).

Bullitt Spindrift finish. Post 216, if you look at the shadowed section under the Bullitt plaque, you can see the striped effect. Think we're good.

Was there for that (Goodwood), had a look up close at the new one - don't mind it but kind of looks like a sticker pack (not being rude, but its no GT350 etc) - original one was nice though

It’s not meant to be a GT350 etc it’s a Bullitt and I think it is very cool
