    Nice car! I almost bought one myself back in 03. Love the retro stuff like that.

    WOW! When did '01 become "Retro"?

    What is the #3226? Is that the number off the factory line? If so, 3226 out of how many?

    Nice looking car!

    since it was modeled after the '68 Mustang fastback featured in the movie "Bullitt" that starred Steve McQueen

    #3226 of 5582 Bullitt cars built

    * Dark Highland Green ... 3041

    No, no, no! Yes, I have never seen the movie, but would like to. But I DO know what the car is modeled off of.

    I just didn't think an '01 model was considered "retro", which is what I thought you were suggesting.

    Actually, Bullitt is one of those movies I would love to get hold of...There are a couple of late 60s early 70s car movies I would like to get a hold of...

    The best part.....

    Those cars have alot of neat features that make it unique "retro" also.

    Nice, now you just need a terminator Cobra and you'll own the only three Mustangs of that body style that I like.
