In the case of an insurance settlement, the lack of Bullitts on the market should help you. Adjusters base what they offer you on "market value" for the car in the situation of a total loss.
I had a friend who had a '91 5.0 LX Convertible. Somewhat rare. When it got stolen, the adjuster could not find any like vehicles for sale locally to base a settlement on. My friend found and ad in the Auto Trader for a low mileage, modified LX that was asking top dollar. The adjuster gave him what that person was asking for that car. He cleared $6K over what he owed.
Rarity may work in your favor since the Bullitt is so new. Do your homework and don't take the first offer.
Also, if you had done any mods to the car, find your receipts. A good adjuster will give you credit for money spent on the car if it is reasonable. However, be careful. High performance mods can cause you some grief. An added supercharger (for example) that you did not report to your insurance company will most likely not be reimbursed.
