Matt...you’re definitely one of the most informative auto industry analysts on UA-cam as well as just a genuinely nice guy. You are so deserving of this car! Best of luck to you and look forward to future content.
I agree with your choice on sticking with the leather seats very classy. Also I understand where they're coming from with the low profile look, i just like the look of a black spoiler on these mustangs so much.
Congrats on your new toy! It's spectacular and if it were my type of car, I wouldn't have changed a single thing. The color is eye popping insane. It's perfection all the way around. I always turn my head when I see the new GT but this one is the "creme dela creme".
I don't understand why Ford doesn't offer Recaros with power and comfort options. My CTS-V came with the $1,600 optional 16-way Recaros which are heated and cooled. There is NO reason Ford can't offer something similar.
The only drawback with the Bullitt is the fact that Ford could and should have put in the Tremec 6 speed. My 2020 Mustang GT Convertible 10R80 has passed many a Bullitt. I installed the Ford Performance Cold air intake kit with Procal 4 tune, which makes up for the difference in HP. I have 480 hp, plus an additional 20 lbs of torque. And with the ten speed, I beat a Porsche Panamera S on a highway pull, 85 mph to 135 mph. I slowly pulled away and saw the dude say WTF? Always puts a smile on my face.
Cool to see the Bullitt more in depth Matt! A guy who lives down the street from me has a 2008 Mustang Bullitt, I always like seeing it whenever I pass by since you definitely don't see them often. I'm a huge fan of the movie, I think more people who don't understand why we're so into this car need to see the movie and that car chase! Ford really got this car right if you ask me, I love how discrete it is.
Well done Matt, I had ordered my Bullitt soon after you had. Still have it, still love it. I appreciate your pointing out all of the differences, especially the subtle ones. Your are the only one in my research who pointed out the Standard Seats as being unique. Also the speedometer reaching 180 ( that I didn’t even notice ). I have 30K miles so far, exhaust is even throatier than it was 10,000 miles ago. As far as mods are concerned: I put in Ford Performance Springs, which lowered 1 inch. (Looks Great). Ford performance hood struts for convenience. Cleanable air filter. Had the headliner done in Black Alcantara with Green Stitching. Floor mats with The Car # & GT embroidered with green. Tires are now Firestone Indy 500’s . All these mods can be reversed to Stock. BTW, You run a nice clean channel. All the best
its a beauty ! cant wait to hear a full on review once its broken in...the bulitt looks Soooo damn tasteful ,clean and understated in its looks...whoever designed it deserves a pat on the back
I still don't understand the hate about the new front end? I think they look better. It looks more like a GT350 front end, which I thought everyone loved? lol
MoeUknow Idk i park my 18 next to a 14 at work and it makes the 14 look super old in comparison and ive heard that from quite a few as well. Its all subjective
Hey Matt, given the 2018's were underrated (dynoing around 480-490), I bet the Bullitt may be close to or over 500hp. Hope you dyno it after break in! Edit: $51K for all that goodness is a great deal. Anyone who says otherwise, doesn't understand the power and coolness per dollar!
51k is a shit ton of money for a paint and 2 different badges. You can get the GT with everything the bullitt edition has with the PP. might as well get the GT500 for a little more.
Hey Matt, congratulations to this fabulous Bullit from Germany! BUT what about this horrible corrosion underneath the right sill of the vehicle (as shown in the clip from 5:40 up to 5:44)?!? Greetings Günter
Nice video. Thanks for sharing. The dash would look awesome had the speedometer and tach been analog. With the engine turned off the digital panel looks ugly, in my opinion.
I can't wait for the first Real Drive when your able to give er hell. I can't wait to see and hear your reaction. Love the channel Matt Maran, keep up the amazing work.
ill be buying a 16-17 GT350 from an auction crashed, do you know if a V6 or a V8 mustang has the same shell and reinforcement as a GT350 shell? im thinking might be easier to swap everything from GT350 onto a V6 non crashed shell?
Pretty sure the whole front end of the GT350 is unique from the a-pillar forward. I think they lowered the reinforcements and pulled them out a tad. Hood, fenders, bumpers are all lower too.
Matt Maran Motoring yea the exterior is obvious I was thinking about shell and reinforcement and subframe etc... will prob just try getting one not badly damaged to have less headaches when rebuilding lol
Travis James yea but also trans and all the drivetrain and suspension is different, I was thinking if but rolled GT350 and slightly hit V6 and swap it all
50th anniversary GT had the chrome trim too (the one where they only made 1964) No offense but you know they'd discount regular GTs $4-5k with the same options but I'm sure the resale is much better so it's relative I guess
Really enjoyed this video Matt Maran. Thanks for doing it. Loved to see the differences. The Bullit has always been one of my favorite Mustangs. I'm also a big fan of the Cobra R, The Terminator and most of all Roush Mustangs.
I’ve seen a lot of hate on UA-cam but this is insane. Everyone is on Matt for is purchase for no reason he wanted the car he got it. He has stated clearly he didn’t want the gt350 leave him alone with his money. Be glad he can afford something he genuinely wanted. Most of the people sayin what he should do with his money don’t even have the money to afford what they are recommending for him. Do you and respect his choice and commend him for the hard work it took him to get him this. Good job Matt keep up the good work.
LOVE that car, I am not super fond of the S550, although they still are cool cars, but that one is sexy af. I wish they would have made some later model S197 Bullitt after the 2008 one. Keep up the content, thanks Matt!
I really like that you follow break in procedures! I have always done so myself. Nice to see someone trying to take care of there investment. Love the car man! I have a 2001 Bullitt myself.
Looks great - I wish they offered the "Bullitt" package in more colors.........Not a fan of Green color. Whats up with the rust in the undercarriage shot?
Does Ford care, the warranted part has never been corrected! OMG would hate to have my Bullit in for warranty and let the gas jockies burn the shit out of my Bullit . BTW I'm no troll, I love all cars. BMW use to be simple and fun now there over sophisticated luxury barges?
Amazing car Matt!! The only thing that dissapointed me is that they green stitched the freakin' floormats but didn't do the steering wheel or e-brake boot. Seems kinda odd and lazy to me, the steering wheel is the main piece of the interior, it would look so good in green stitch. Good choice getting the non - Recaro seats as well! Can't wait for the full review and first redline pull :D
Matt you should dyno the bullitt & get a base line, I’m curious to see what the difference is with the 3rd gen coyote & gt350 mani over the stock 18gt mani.
In England we have little less power sadly but than everything else come’s standard so all the packages and other add on’s are full out apart from we go to choose the colour and that’s about it
Hey Matt, thanks for the insight into differences, very interesting. I'm old enough to have seen the movie "Bullitt" at theaters when it came out. Well. as much as I like the original Stang, I like yours better. FYI, I left a comment in Sofyan's page asking both of you to make a video testing out each other's new cars. Would be fun.
Matt , I wonder why the BULLITT doesn"t come with different floor mats . Seems like the floor mats would have BULLITT on them . I bought mine 9-15-18 and I guess I expected the floor mats to be different .
Beautiful car man, very hapoy you finally got it. Ive been watching your channel for a while and i love what you do, keep up the amazing work my friend. Oh and also, I kinda wish Dodge would get some licensing rights to the Bullitt movie too. Then they could make a Bullitt edition Charger. I think it would be quite interesting to see and they would look handsome paired up together.
Hey Matt, picking my Bullitt up in a few days, first Mustang too, your vids are great, but want to start listening to my own engine on the overrun; no offense. Anyway, great vids, thanks for the ear candy. I'm with you, if it looks and sounds right, you don't need stripes, spoilers and badges.
I love the way Matt always says in his videos how the stock seats are "free" when compared to the Recaros. No Matt, they're not free, you're still paying for them!
Thanks for all the videos Matt. Awaiting delivery of mine; equipped exactly as yours. First car I ever bought (1975) was a 1968 Mustang, so its fitting to get this Bullitt 50 years later. Noticed you had something plugged in with the cord going from the center stack to the passenger side front corner dash.....radar detector? Gopro?
Hi Matt. I think I remember you saying you're in western PA. What do you do with your mustang in the winter? I'm in eastern Ohio and am considering a mustang but don't know if I need a winter beater for snow or if snow tires on the mustang will suffice. Thanks!
With my past Mustangs I've ran snow tires and been fine as long as I wasn't going up steep hills covered in snow. For the Bullitt, I won't be driving it unless it's over 40 degrees. I get press cars pretty often and will drive those during the winter along with sharing the wife's car.
As I have said many times before I love that dark highland green color even on the cloudy day in this video. I knew that you would make this soon enough after delivery. Thanks Matt for pointing out all the differences. #BULLITT #DreamCar
...also, the Ricaro seats would probable last longer than those free heated/cool seats. If you plan on holding onto that car as long as you claim, that's just more problems you'll have finding repair parts later on down the road. Just my thoughts... I have the heated/cooled seats in my 2018 RAM 3500 dually and that's a concern of my considering those trucks last so long.
Matt Maran Motoring Thanks Matt. I have a Guard green myself and have seen the new Bullitt in the flesh but only on a dull day where things start to all verge towards a dark grey. I reckon seeing them both in bright sunlight would help the differences pop out.
Does it reduce exhaust sound back to normal note like from sport to normal on 6th gear? I had a 2016 Mustang Shelby GT350 and would use it on sport mode and sounded sweet but after shifting to 6th gear the noise went back to normal and quiet.
Hi Matt, what's this break in period you are doing for your car? Do you do this for all performance style cars? What does the break in involve? Thanks.
I'm just following the owner's manual. Every car's procedure is different. For the Mustang it says "try not to drive too fast for the first 1,000 miles and change up through the gears early. Avoid keeping the car at a constant speed and don't labor the engine." So basically, no redlining and no cruise control.
would be cool to see a drag race of all the top reviewer's cars! saabkyle's viper, sofyan's cayman gts, matt's bullitt! thatdudeinblue's mustang etc etc
Tbh the exterior looks plain. And the red calipers don't go well with that green. Chrome trim could have done without. They should have put a wider wheel and tire set up on it.. Looks base model ish.
The Fitness Life The original 68 bullitt had chrome trim and it was meant to look plain because it was an undercover cop car, the bullitt is supposed to be a sleeper car that’s why it has no mustang badges, no 5.0 badges kind of hiding in plain view until you hit the gas and turn heads.
seems like people forget that all together, they made it in mind of the 68 as you said, i love that the held to the chrome trim, being a sleeper, really the only good way to have this car although i do think a few mods would make it cool, i've seen very few modified except for two and they looked pretty badass, one of them was procharged to. Meanwhile, i love the car the way it is, i think it pulls off the look really well, doesn't look base model to me, looks like they tried to stick to heritage, which is nice.
MxCallX maybe I’m a little biased man because I’ve had mine for two weeks now LOL but people complain about the weirdest things about this car it makes me think that a lot of them haven’t even seen the original movie!! Car handles like a dream and once it’s broken in correctly I’ll put those 480 horses to work...
So did your dealer charge you an "ADM" Additional Dealer Markup? I was going to buy a 2019 Bullitt today, until the sale department called me up a few hours before my sales appt. to say they wanted to make sure i was aware of the $20000 ADM they wanted to charge on top of the $50500 MSRP sticker. FORD website also doesn't include that ADM markup in the payment calculator either. Ended that purchase before it even began. So, why is the Bullitt @ $70K+ better than a Lvl 2 GT Premium which costs less?
Wow I can't believe a dealer is crazy enough to try and get a markup on a Bullitt still. I didn't pay an ADM and I had one of the first Bullitts sold back in 2018. If you search AutoTrader you'll see dozens of Bullitts with huge discounts now, it might just require a little travel to a decent dealership. I drove 4 hours to get mine out of state. Good luck in your search, don't be discouraged by the dumb dealerships!
Congratulations on getting your dream car I remember when this was all rumor cool to see you having it exactly how you want it.
100th like
This is a car best kept 100% stock.. my opinion. Its iconic.
because ur a beta male
Agreed, at the most exhaust. Maybe ship wheels out to get widened, at the most.
@Brian Scholl what movie?
DELL0015 BULLIT, Steve McQueen.
Its not a shelbygt500 though!

Dakota LaFrance my 1SS 1LE camaro has electric Recaro seats
Recaros = RACE CAR VROOOM. Weight saving man.
Cause original racing seats arent power ajustable.
The only drawback with the Bullitt is the fact that Ford could and should have put in the Tremec 6 speed. My 2020 Mustang GT Convertible 10R80 has passed many a Bullitt. I installed the Ford Performance Cold air intake kit with Procal 4 tune, which makes up for the difference in HP. I have 480 hp, plus an additional 20 lbs of torque.

Heck yes, another Bullitt video! Dark Highland green looks so good!
Really enjoy your Channel Matt, especially when you do vids on Mustangs. We have 2, a 2005 GT Coupe, and a 1968 Coupe. From New Zealand.
Well done Matt, I had ordered my Bullitt soon after you had. Still have it, still love it. I appreciate your pointing out all of the differences, especially the subtle ones.

5 years late here, you nailed it , very few people review the bullitt as accurately as you did.
its a beauty ! cant wait to hear a full on review once its broken in...the bulitt looks Soooo damn tasteful ,clean and understated in its looks...whoever designed it deserves a pat on the back
Hi Matt. Nice vid. Liked before watching because I knew it was going to be good
this isn't my kind of car but I'm glad Matt is so happy with it and so passionate about it
I still don't understand the hate about the new front end? I think they look better. It looks more like a GT350 front end, which I thought everyone loved? lol
Transfiguration I like the new ones more too, more agressive
Yeah, I've been back and forth about them
MoeUknow Idk i park my 18 next to a 14 at work and it makes the 14 look super old in comparison and ive heard that from quite a few as well. Its all subjective
Transfiguration same here bro...
Matt how many miles do you have on your bullitt now? I have about 300 on mine. What is going to be your first performance mod if any?
Very cool. Love, love the color. Wheels look good on the car.
Not crazy about the big bullitt badge on the back. Like the stealth look.
I think they did a nice job throwing it back to the original Bullitt car's styling details
At 4:48, this looks exactly like an older Aston Martin Vantage or DB9(I can’t remember which one)..I love it
Next video: Why am I planning to sell my bullet for upcoming GT500 which I will keep it forever!!
Nope, zero interest in the GT500.
I hear you man!!..Not everything has to be about performance and money. I got a stage 2 golf r and would rather keep that forever over any supercars.
Your BULLITT is such a badass car!
But he needs to install a aftermarket exhaust
Bob The I think it sounds just fine, no need to be a cop magnet or a immature kid
Bob The Haha I was just telling myself that the stock exhaust already looks and sounds like an aftermarket one. No need to change anything IMO
Country Road u mean an immature adult
except for the optional scratch that came with the car when he bought it new
Hey Matt, given the 2018's were underrated (dynoing around 480-490), I bet the Bullitt may be close to or over 500hp. Hope you dyno it after break in! Edit: $51K for all that goodness is a great deal. Anyone who says otherwise, doesn't understand the power and coolness per dollar!
I definitely want to find a good dyno soon and see what it makes! Hope your GT350 is continuing to treat you well!
They make 490 with simple bolt on mods lol. Not out the box. The bullit night with the gt350 mani and tune though
51k is a shit ton of money for a paint and 2 different badges. You can get the GT with everything the bullitt edition has with the PP. might as well get the GT500 for a little more.
Hey Matt,
congratulations to this fabulous Bullit from Germany!
BUT what about this horrible corrosion underneath the right sill of the vehicle (as shown in the clip from 5:40 up to 5:44)?!?
Greetings
Günter
I see rust at 5:48 in the top left of the screen, but that is the bottom of the lift.
That's one thing I love about the EcoBoost models and Bullitt better.. no fender badges!! So much cleaner :) Great looking car man!!
Nice video. Thanks for sharing. The dash would look awesome had the speedometer and tach been analog. With the engine turned off the digital panel looks ugly, in my opinion.
Love the green stitching 🤗🏁!!
The difference . When you buy a bullit it comes with a complimentary scratch 😊. Kidding
Rev To Redline lmao!
I can't wait for the first Real Drive when your able to give er hell. I can't wait to see and hear your reaction. Love the channel Matt Maran, keep up the amazing work.
Congrats on the new car Matt!
Your Bullitt is nice Matt! Thanks for the clarification on the differences, helps out on my 2016 mustang GT Build!
I love you passion for the car!! Maybe 20 years from now we will see a similar blog on you car!
ill be buying a 16-17 GT350 from an auction crashed, do you know if a V6 or a V8 mustang has the same shell and reinforcement as a GT350 shell? im thinking might be easier to swap everything from GT350 onto a V6 non crashed shell?
Pretty sure the whole front end of the GT350 is unique from the a-pillar forward. I think they lowered the reinforcements and pulled them out a tad. Hood, fenders, bumpers are all lower too.
That will be quite difficult. you’re probably better off buying a 5.2 block from ford racing to put in a wrecked GT
Matt Maran Motoring yea the exterior is obvious I was thinking about shell and reinforcement and subframe etc... will prob just try getting one not badly damaged to have less headaches when rebuilding lol
Travis James yea but also trans and all the drivetrain and suspension is different, I was thinking if but rolled GT350 and slightly hit V6 and swap it all
50th anniversary GT had the chrome trim too (the one where they only made 1964)
No offense but you know they'd discount regular GTs $4-5k with the same options but I'm sure the resale is much better so it's relative I guess
I wonder if the green interior stitching comes with the shadow black bulitt mustangs.
Really enjoyed this video Matt Maran. Thanks for doing it. Loved to see the differences. The Bullit has always been one of my favorite Mustangs. I'm also a big fan of the Cobra R, The Terminator and most of all Roush Mustangs.
I’ve seen a lot of hate on UA-cam but this is insane. Everyone is on Matt for is purchase for no reason he wanted the car he got it. He has stated clearly he didn’t want the gt350 leave him alone with his money. Be glad he can afford something he genuinely wanted. Most of the people sayin what he should do with his money don’t even have the money to afford what they are recommending for him. Do you and respect his choice and commend him for the hard work it took him to get him this. Good job Matt keep up the good work.
Thanks man!
LOVE that car, I am not super fond of the S550, although they still are cool cars, but that one is sexy af. I wish they would have made some later model S197 Bullitt after the 2008 one. Keep up the content, thanks Matt!
Can you do a video on the Performance Shift Indicator? Show all the different modes setup etc. there’s nothing out there that I can find! Thanks!!
I really like that you follow break in procedures! I have always done so myself. Nice to see someone trying to take care of there investment. Love the car man! I have a 2001 Bullitt myself.
Nice! It’s cool You were able to get an early production car. Thanks for the details, keep up the good work.
I love that The Bullit is also available in black. I'd love to see you get a side by side video with a black Bullit. That would be awesome.
Congratulations on your new Mustang!!
Looks great - I wish they offered the "Bullitt" package in more colors.........Not a fan of Green color. Whats up with the rust in the undercarriage shot?
Those sideburns...
REALLY BEAUTIFUL CAR MATT
Great overview, Matt. Makes me want to 86 the challenger.
Hope your shift forks hold up.
Does Ford care, the warranted part has never been corrected! OMG would hate to have my Bullit in for warranty and let the gas jockies burn the shit out of my Bullit . BTW I'm no troll, I love all cars. BMW use to be simple and fun now there over sophisticated luxury barges?
Weak transmission and weak motor's..WEAK ASS ALUMINUM...GAY AS FUCK
Hey Matt congrats and great video my man
Green stitching is a nice touch
Amazing car Matt!! The only thing that dissapointed me is that they green stitched the freakin' floormats but didn't do the steering wheel or e-brake boot. Seems kinda odd and lazy to me, the steering wheel is the main piece of the interior, it would look so good in green stitch. Good choice getting the non - Recaro seats as well! Can't wait for the full review and first redline pull :D
I see a bunch of fun drives in your future. Since owning the car how often did you watch the movie?
Matt you should dyno the bullitt & get a base line, I’m curious to see what the difference is with the 3rd gen coyote & gt350 mani over the stock 18gt mani.
In England we have little less power sadly but than everything else come’s standard so all the packages and other add on’s are full out apart from we go to choose the colour and that’s about it
Awesome video Matt!

Well. as much as I like the original Stang, I like yours better. FYI, I left a comment in Sofyan's page asking both of you to make a video testing out each other's new cars. Would be fun.
Just a guess, but the gt350 intake may be causing that crackle and pop. When I installed a gt350 intake on my gt, I noticed more crackle and pop.
The Ricaro seats beside the issues electrical and heated or cool option. Would you guys get them or not for 6"1" Hight and 210 weight??
Happy 1 year!! Still thumbs up for a Bullitt?
Matt , I wonder why the BULLITT doesn"t come with different floor mats . Seems like the floor mats would have BULLITT on them . I bought mine 9-15-18 and I guess I expected the floor mats to be different .
Beautiful car man, very hapoy you finally got it. Ive been watching your channel for a while and i love what you do, keep up the amazing work my friend. Oh and also, I kinda wish Dodge would get some licensing rights to the Bullitt movie too. Then they could make a Bullitt edition Charger. I think it would be quite interesting to see and they would look handsome paired up together.
Gorgeous car Matt and excellent video!
Hey Matt, picking my Bullitt up in a few days, first Mustang too, your vids are great, but want to start listening to my own engine on the overrun; no offense. Anyway, great vids, thanks for the ear candy. I'm with you, if it looks and sounds right, you don't need stripes, spoilers and badges.
Big fan of the channel. Sorry you had to sell it. Do you happen to know what the ground clearance was? Above or below 5 inches? 🙏
I love the way Matt always says in his videos how the stock seats are "free" when compared to the Recaros. No Matt, they're not free, you're still paying for them!
Wow your car is amazing. No mods required at all on this Mustang. Ford got it exactly right! 👍
Great video breaking down the differences.
Matt! I need to switch my Recaro seets to regular leather seats. Have You heard of people switching?
Wow, I've never been a mustang guy but after seeing the 2019 Camaro I've been looking at mustang more and boy am I impressed with this bullit.
VVOUX Bulitt.
Great revue Matt
My dealer has one marked up from 51k to 61k. If I wait a few months will the mark up on these cars go down? Also well i even be able to get one.
Thanks for all the videos Matt. Awaiting delivery of mine; equipped exactly as yours. First car I ever bought (1975) was a 1968 Mustang, so its fitting to get this Bullitt 50 years later. Noticed you had something plugged in with the cord going from the center stack to the passenger side front corner dash.....radar detector? Gopro?
Congrats on your order! Hope it comes soon! The cord was going to the dash cam I have on the windshield.
I wonder if your bullit ticks like a time bomb??
Hi Matt. I think I remember you saying you're in western PA. What do you do with your mustang in the winter? I'm in eastern Ohio and am considering a mustang but don't know if I need a winter beater for snow or if snow tires on the mustang will suffice. Thanks!
With my past Mustangs I've ran snow tires and been fine as long as I wasn't going up steep hills covered in snow. For the Bullitt, I won't be driving it unless it's over 40 degrees. I get press cars pretty often and will drive those during the winter along with sharing the wife's car.
As I have said many times before I love that dark highland green color even on the cloudy day in this video. I knew that you would make this soon enough after delivery. Thanks Matt for pointing out all the differences. #BULLITT #DreamCar
Hey, Brother! Where is the 2019 Ford Ranger Lariat Sport ?
Like the chrome around the window
Beautiful car, Matt!
...also, the Ricaro seats would probable last longer than those free heated/cool seats. If you plan on holding onto that car as long as you claim, that's just more problems you'll have finding repair parts later on down the road. Just my thoughts... I have the heated/cooled seats in my 2018 RAM 3500 dually and that's a concern of my considering those trucks last so long.
I realy like the low profile Bullit logo on the back.
How would you compare the Guard green colour with that of Dark Highland Green, Matt?
Guard had more gray in it, this has more green and a little blue.
Matt Maran Motoring Thanks Matt. I have a Guard green myself and have seen the new Bullitt in the flesh but only on a dull day where things start to all verge towards a dark grey. I reckon seeing them both in bright sunlight would help the differences pop out.
Congratulations Matt!
Can you dyno it so we can compare the graphs between it and a regular GT?
Does it reduce exhaust sound back to normal note like from sport to normal on 6th gear? I had a 2016 Mustang Shelby GT350 and would use it on sport mode and sounded sweet but after shifting to 6th gear the noise went back to normal and quiet.
I have way more fun in this car then in my 911 4s - 991.2. This is a great car.
Hi Matt, what's this break in period you are doing for your car? Do you do this for all performance style cars? What does the break in involve? Thanks.
I'm just following the owner's manual. Every car's procedure is different. For the Mustang it says "try not to drive too fast for the first 1,000 miles and change up through the gears early. Avoid keeping the car at a constant speed and don't labor the engine." So basically, no redlining and no cruise control.
01:24 I never considered shifting at 7,000 RPM "short-shifting?" LoL
when will the next mustang comeing out are u going to get it
I would love to see/buy a Boss 302
Well done Matt love the color ENJOY, I know you will . I always look foreword to your videos.
The exhaust note is it different when compared to a regular GT Mustang as the Bullitt did in previous generations
Yes, a little deeper thanks to the different tuning and intake components.
Sounds better to my ears than the regular Mustang GT. And man I wish the regular GT could take that sweet CAI (without a warranty removing tune).
What do the pony projection lights show on the ground at night? It’s probably a bullet symbol?
No it's the same pony symbol as other Premium trim Mustangs.
Nice vid Matt, are you planning on doing a chrome deletion on your Bullitt?
All his vids are nice
I'm keeping it all stock. The chrome is one of the unique things. Deleting it makes the Bullitt less unique.
The chrome looks good imo. Too many cars now are chrome deleted. #BringBackTheChrome
Im looking to get a camaro zl1 or the new gt500 ( when it comes out ) but I can’t choose .. any suggestions?
Hey Matt got a Bullitt on the way - would love to lower it, do you know if you can lower Magnaride?
would be cool to see a drag race of all the top reviewer's cars! saabkyle's viper, sofyan's cayman gts, matt's bullitt! thatdudeinblue's mustang etc etc
Tbh the exterior looks plain. And the red calipers don't go well with that green. Chrome trim could have done without. They should have put a wider wheel and tire set up on it.. Looks base model ish.
The Fitness Life The original 68 bullitt had chrome trim and it was meant to look plain because it was an undercover cop car, the bullitt is supposed to be a sleeper car that’s why it has no mustang badges, no 5.0 badges kind of hiding in plain view until you hit the gas and turn heads.
seems like people forget that all together, they made it in mind of the 68 as you said, i love that the held to the chrome trim, being a sleeper, really the only good way to have this car although i do think a few mods would make it cool, i've seen very few modified except for two and they looked pretty badass, one of them was procharged to. Meanwhile, i love the car the way it is, i think it pulls off the look really well, doesn't look base model to me, looks like they tried to stick to heritage, which is nice.
MxCallX maybe I’m a little biased man because I’ve had mine for two weeks now LOL but people complain about the weirdest things about this car it makes me think that a lot of them haven’t even seen the original movie!! Car handles like a dream and once it’s broken in correctly I’ll put those 480 horses to work...
Looks EcoBoost-ish
agree, chrome is a cheapshot + red calipers, black on green would’ve been great.
Not too keen on the alloys, nice car tho can hardly fault it.
So did your dealer charge you an "ADM" Additional Dealer Markup? I was going to buy a 2019 Bullitt today, until the sale department called me up a few hours before my sales appt. to say they wanted to make sure i was aware of the $20000 ADM they wanted to charge on top of the $50500 MSRP sticker. FORD website also doesn't include that ADM markup in the payment calculator either. Ended that purchase before it even began. So, why is the Bullitt @ $70K+ better than a Lvl 2 GT Premium which costs less?
Wow I can't believe a dealer is crazy enough to try and get a markup on a Bullitt still. I didn't pay an ADM and I had one of the first Bullitts sold back in 2018. If you search AutoTrader you'll see dozens of Bullitts with huge discounts now, it might just require a little travel to a decent dealership. I drove 4 hours to get mine out of state. Good luck in your search, don't be discouraged by the dumb dealerships!
One of the best looking Mustangs ever made! What is that wheel design called? I’d love to get some for my E30. They look look like an 911 wheel.
Torq Thrust Wheels
Can't wait for the first hard pull reaction video in the review :D
