Ford has decided help us start our weekend off with a bang by announcing the Ford Mustang Bullitt will make it's world debut at the Los Angeles Motor Show next month as well as releasing a first teaser image (see above). The new Bullitt will deliver a perfect balance of power, performance and a look of quiet intensity, and will hit dealership in early 2008.

That is all Ford has told us so far, fortunately a few specifications were leaked to various forums earlier this month, which we suspect was done intentionally by Ford. Now we also know the Bullitt will feature a “FR Power Pack” with an estimated power output of 312hp which is obviously nothing to get too excited about. However the exterior and interior will have a number of modifications giving it the authentic Bullitt feel as well as an improved suspension system, production will be limited to 7000 units for the US and 700 for Canada.

I think it's basically the Shelby GT with a different appearance package. Ford likes to just crank out the special edition Mustangs.

Sounds like Honda with the Mugen Si.

Yeah, kind of like that, except nobody cares about the Mustangs, and they're not as overpriced.
