5 Years Later: How's the Bullitt Doing?

[@BrianShin600]

Its already been 5 years thats so crazy

Yes, he's speaking of a "2019 BULLITT" (00:15), so for him it's 5 years old.

[@robd3061]

Sometimes a bad battery (low voltage, bad cell, sulfonation, etc.) can cause weird drivability issues and/or a bunch of warning lights/messages. Modern cars have many interconnected electronics. If the car has the original battery, it may be a good idea to bring it to a shop and have it load tested. Great video!

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Good suggestion, thankfully the car has been fine in the past 8 months or so since then, and someone else on here said it happened to their 2022 Mustang as well, so it might not be a battery issue, I dunno.

[@tomrakusan1179]

True…..

I love the idea of having a vehicle that you grow old with and your kids can have all their memories in. For me it’s my dads 1995 E-350 van with a 4x4 conversion and lift. Did a lot of 4 wheeling and camping in that van and dad still daily drives it haha

I run Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4 tires on my M2 for about half the year up here in the PNW; I would recommend them personally. Rainy and cold season runs from about Oct-April out here. I really like the tires I feel like they have almost unnatural grip in nasty and wet conditions. This is with aggressive driving. Haven’t had any issues slipping in icier conditions. Take care!

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Thanks for the recommendation! That's one of my top picks for new tires, so I'm glad to hear they've worked well for you.

[@myemailiscool]

the AS4's i had were super loud and only got louder as they wore down 😅

[@richardnavratil9661]

Yup, I put the Pilot 4 AS on my 2019 Bullitt and it's been awesome. We had a mild winter, so my winter set didn't even make it onto my car this year.

[@missingremote4388]

What about the other half of the year? And which summer or winters

[@richardnavratil9661]

@@missingremote4388 I can tell you from my own experience - I had the Pilot 4S which the Bullitt came with. At about 25,000 miles (and 2 track sessions, mind you), they were toast. That was just before winter, so I got a dedicated Pirelli Sotozzero 3 on separate wheels, a square setup as opposed to the staggered the Bullitt has. Once it was time to take of the winters, I got Pilot 4 AS tires (Costco had a good deal). Those have been on the car since, even through past winter, as the winter in SW OH was pretty mild this year (compared to last year). So I basically have AS on most of the time and if/when the weather turns crappy say Dec-Feb, then I can swap in the dedicated winters.

I usually run in Sport mode with the exhaust in track but it still makes those great gurgles and pops in Normal. I did switch tires to Pirellis as I use mine as a daily driver and wanted more of an all weather tire. My Michelins did the same thing.

[@Keith96DOHC]

I"ve owned 4 Mustangs in the last 35 years, all V8s. '81 Mustang Cobra, '89 LX 5.0, '01 Bullitt, and '08 GT.

Happy to hear you're still enjoying it after 5 years, and plan to keep it long term.

I feel the same way about the 2018 hellcat challenger widebody I ordered in March 2018. We both got our cars around the same time. Took delivery in June and its been a great 5 years so far.

[@joelsfallon]

Hey Matt, I've had my Bullitt for over 2 years now, and I've noticed a definite toe misalignment in my fronts, too. It wore it down to the bead all of a sudden at 22k miles, surprising since it seemed okay ~1000 mile check before. Replaced brand new, but these MP4S tires are pricey. Since then, I've always parked with my steering cranked so I can read the tread every once in a while. I've heard from a few Mustang forums that the GTs and Bullitts from '19 can suffer from toe alignment issues, also.

[@jimfranks]

My gauge cluster in my 2018 GT convertible went out very soon after my purchase. Thank goodness the $2,500 cost was under warranty. Had my car for over 5 1/2 years. Just turned 16,000 miles. Still love it.

[@davidursini4740]

I have a 2019 GT Premium with performance pack 1, magnaride suspension, active valve exhaust, etc. Setup just like the Bullitt. My tires are the same..Michelin Pilot Sport 4S. The front tires were worn down to the steel cords on the inside at about 28,000 miles. It wasn't out of alignment, but may be due to the suspension setup...mostly driven in sport mode...according to the tire store who checked my alignment. Rear tires are down to the wear bars now, and being replaced soon at 30,000 miles with no wear issues at all.

[@thechicagobearsftw]

That limp mode story is crazy! The exact same thing happened to me in my Mach1 at like 1300 miles. Was going downhill in neutral in stop and go traffic, put it in first at 8mph and it immediately went into limp mode. had to sit on the side of the road for 5 mins with it off and upon restart it was fine again. no issues since.

It's been a lovely daily over the 53,000 miles and it still puts a smile to my face on the daily. 6:13 After I wore out my Pilot 4S (two track sessions made that pretty quick), I put on Pilot 4 AS, great all season tire. We've had a mild winter this past year in OH, so my dedicated winters didn't even go onto the car. I highly recommend these tires, they're great!

I've been doing lots of suspension upgrades since I got it and it drives SO MUCH better now com pared to stock. Those bushings Ford puts on their Mustangs are garbage. If you haven't done them yet, highly recommended, you won't regret it! Car feels so much better and planted, doesn't fishtail anymore when pushing hard, doesn't get unsettled when going over bumps/potholes etc. Feels like a sports car now, love it!

I haven’t driven them in the winter yet, but the guy over at the Tyre Reviews channel found their winter traction amazing given the high performance in other areas. I have found Michelin quality to be the most consistent of any brand and have usually regretted straying to other brands.

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Thanks for sharing your experience. I heard the Pilot A/S are a little noisier than some of the competitors, is the noise more noticeable to you?

[@karlbennion6595]

@@MattMaranMotoring I find them pleasant and quiet enough. It’s possible that the all-season tread pattern and depth have added some noise compared to the Goodyear summer tires I had previously, but it’s barely noticeable to me. Most tests seem to put it mid-pack for noise in its category.

[@mavmrb3]

Four years for me! Love my 2020 Bullitt. You having less than 20,000 miles for 5 years is great. I have 6,000 miles on mine, but I use her strictly for racing. I beefed up the suspension and lowered her for the Central PA SCCA Solo races. No complaints. Runs like on rails. BTW: You said you need to replace the tires. I had to replace my tires for this season. Less than 6,000 miles the outsides wore off. Tires do not last if you drive aggressively spirited on the race course.

Congrats on making it to 5 years with the Bullitt! Time surely does fly. I remember when Ford announced the 2019 Bullitt back in 2018, the first person that came to mind was you, knowing that you are a big fan of Steve McQueen and that 1968 green fastback Mustang. I always enjoy these Bullitt updates as it gives me a glimpse of the S550 ownership. I recently picked up a 2023 Mach 1 with the 6 speed Tremec transmission from the GT350 and I’ve been loving the car. Honestly I’m with you the 2024 Mustang interior doesn’t do it for me, I much prefer the clean interior of the S550 mustang. Thanks for the video Matt 👍🏻

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Thanks for the comment and for following along all these years! Great buy with the Mach 1! If I wasn't attached to the Bullitt look, the Mach 1 would probably be the ideal Mustang for me. I'd love to have the Tremec.

[@TheMGChannel]

@@MattMaranMotoring Yes, in my opinion it is the best S550, the Mach 1. The Gen 3 motor is bulletproof and a very special motor and with the Tremec and GT350/GT500 cooling makes for a very special mustang. I wonder why you haven’t reviewed a new Mach 1 yet, I would definitely would love to hear your take on one.

@@TheMGChannel Unfortunately Ford is difficult to work with and they're terrible at sending me press cars.

[@ibakedit5850]

Thanks for the update. I have a 2018 Ecoboost , black acct. pkg, and auto. It has 34,000 miles (59,000kms). The car has been great, got lucky with zero panel gap or paint issues, and it has been really rattle free...the car is very tight or than a very seldom occasional squeak (weather dependent). I find it very quiet ( did add some sort of cotton insulation in trunk, and stuffed some down the rear fenders by moving back trunk lining a bit). I have to replace a lower door speaker which blew...I believe the active noise system did that by constantly piping in engine sounds. After disconnecting the rear mic in headliner the car is quieter....less engine noise.

[@WarwallTheFaithful]

For 2005-2009 (maybe 2010) the limp made may be a faulty throttle position sensor. Not sure if this was his issue, but I learned the other from experience. The screws are very tightly threaded, very easy to break.

[@ChrisTopher-xu4ef]

If you do a lot of around town and non highway driving, the inside of the tires can show extra wear. When the wheel is turned a lot, the inside of the tires are what is making contact the most. It is not always an alignment issue. I experienced this myself. When I moved and did more highway miles, my tires wear more even now.

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Thanks for the info but when we put it on the alignment rack that wheel was way off, so it was definitely an alignment issue.

[@mark-anthony113]

Love these updates, Matt. Been watching since the subaruwrxfan days. Actually got a Guard Green 2016 GT back in 2015 (closest i could get to a Bullitt at the time) with an eye to keeping it forever, as V8 manuals go the way of the dodo. After 8 years and 100,000 miles it's still going strong with only minor issues here and there. But I've retired it from track days and autocrossing though. Also put on the all-season extremecontact Conti's so i can take take it out all year if want as well, so definitely recommend those. Cheers to many years running these green machines 🍻

Did you notice since PCM blip that your L/C and line lock no longer will trigger? Never use mine but annoying to know they don’t work( they will setup but not trigger, skips back to menu) . You’ll need a good scanner or a trip to the shop. That recall does help in some instances. Love my Bullit.

4.5 years since I traded my brand new 19 bullitt with 1500 miles and knocking/ticking for my f82 M4. Absolutely no regrets as a daily the M4 just fits the bill for me way better. Way better engineered, better ride, way faster, handles better, looks better, no rust as the entire underbody is covered by aluminum and carpeted panels and the whole suspension is aluminum. As a daily it also gets 100-150 more km per tank which is definitely a surprise for someone who doesn’t look at gas prices. But … I do miss the rumble of the coyote 🥺 by now I would’ve had 20x12 and 20x10 3pc forged wheels on it , coilovers, 2pc rotors , headers, catted to a Corsa sport and full suspension bits replacing all the garbage boat anchor china steel bits that come stock. And instead of losing $10k on trade in I could’ve picked up a Tremec and alum gr350 front knuckles 😢. Glad to hear you’re still loving it. I hope to pick up a silver 15-17 base pp with cloth recaros at some point and mod it nothing more exciting than hearing that roar every time you fire it up 🙌🏼

I've only put 15,000 of the 42,000 miles on my car since I bought it used in 2017. Like you I'll need new tires soon and I hope to drive it more. This past summer it needed some repairs. Fingers crossed that new tires will be the only additional expensive.

[@chetanparmar1191]

Great update, I actually look forward to these… I love the Bullitt just haven’t been able to save up enough to get one and as you said the value is holding so they are quite expensive here in Canada. Keep them coming.

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Will do, hopefully you can get one eventually!

[@stratusedge2k7]

Still looks new! I remember you mentioning on a previous video about the black exhaust tips. How are they holding up? Can't believe its been 5 years.

[@MattMaranMotoring]

I never bothered to get them fixed since Ford's official fix was to hack up the mufflers to put new ones on. The flaking hasn't gotten any worse thankfully but it's still there.

Love these cars. One of my neighbors has one in this same color and I get jealous every time he drives by. Then I remember I have a 2023 Corvette Z51 in the garage and feel better 😂

Wow can’t believe it he’s been 5 years!! I just hit 21k on mine. I’ll hit 5 years in October. I put nittos on mine last year and have been pretty happy with them. Decent price too.

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Are they all-seasons or summers?

[@mustangthrall6680]

@@MattMaranMotoring I went with the summer tires, since it never really gets cold here in Vegas. I had Pirellis on my previous mustang and was happy with them, they were all seasons. Also a lot less expensive than the Michelins (which I’ve never really been happy with).

[@happysaddington6488]

Love the review! I'm also loving my 2020 GT!

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Good to hear!

[@jralphroman]

You should definitely consider Continental extremecontact DWS06...us SubaruWRX guys run them and are extremely happy with them...they're grippy yet quiet ... regardless do make a follow-up video... I'm curious to see what you go with

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Will do, thanks for the suggestion, I've heard good things about the Contis.

[@MrMusic747]

@@MattMaranMotoringdefinitely agree to these tires. Had them on my scat pack in Michigan winters. Drove very confidently. Plus the grip is amazing pulled my best 0-60 which was a 3.9 on these tires.

There's way to much Tech in the newer cars now.. They are making way more points of failure too.. I love my 2017 Real Gages.. I totally got the right car for me in every way.. I do wish my backup infotainment screen/camera was bigger but Oh well.. I ended up with a 17 GT Base trim with a (Performance pack) and I love this car..

[@seth0512]

Glad it's still doing good!

[@nanopowerselfclean]

My gosh Drive the thing, I have a 2021 high proformance EcoBoost and I have 28,000 miles on it. I bought it 10 months ago with 1,100 miles on it, I travel a lot for my work but I want to go in style and comfort the gas mileage is killer for all this power. I'm running 366 horse and 377 torque. Putting 2,000 miles on a vehicle you'll never know how it truly runs.

[@newfie-dean5803]

I’ve tried every top tire brand on a Mustang and I will use nothing but Michelins. Every other brand I used to get flats even on new tires and with the Michelins I never had flats using them on a mustang and another vehicle. I’d highly recommend the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4’s, the same tires being used on the new corvettes. I’m currently using those after having the A/S 3’s.
