[@jareddrake619]

I've legitimately been dodging other Bullitt reviews for weeks because I wanted this one to be my impression of the Bullitt... I don't want anyone else's opinion on this car... It doesn't mean as much to them as this does to Matt... So Happy for you man.

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Thanks man! There’s been some cool reviews from the press drive in San Francisco though! My favorite was by CNET who did an accurate shot for shot remake of a few scenes in their review.

[@pezz_pezzer]

I admit I have only watched one review before this one...so very happy that you now can turn your dream car loose Matt. Congrats and looking forward to long term owner updates. Man even though I want to race mine when I get one I must admit if I have the extra funds I would go for the Bullitt over the Performance Pack level 2 just for that look.

[@brolyv5802]

Matt Maran Motoring you are the best! I still watch your reviews although I just have an s550 V6. One day, GT it is.

[@ancap_rem]

Guess you could say that by avoiding other reviews, you've... dodged a Bullitt.

[@patkeanski08]

Matt. Please stop talking this car up. I will buy one, and I want it to be exclusive.

[@connormckay9429]

If your car doesn't make you as happy and excited as Matt is in his Bullit, its time to get a different car.

[@lyndahammel9502]

Lol, for me, my 2017 ruby red EcoBoost makes me as happy as Matt. I'm thankful that Ford has so many Mustang choices and options. For my husband it's his 2004 loaded Lexus.

[@The101Point1]

I'm doing that next month I have a 2017 Ram 1500 Bighorn I do not like and I'm being a 2019 Mustang GT now

[@agaad22]

It’s crazy to think there’s already 5 model years of S550 Mustangs. It feels like it just came out not too long ago.

[@JR-kr9cb]

Nice

[@jonj4357]

The design is definitely timeless

[@putitupinya]

for sure, I just traded my 2015 EcoBoost premium performance pack in on a Bullitt...LOVE IT!

[@henriqueblasius3492]

it's aging very well

[@theredline]

Great choice on the intro music Matt and DAMN the 5.0L V8 sounds absolutely EPIC! Congrats on getting your dream car, we can't wait to review it next month ;) Cheers!

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Thanks Sofyan! I’ll be curious to hear your thoughts on it at AVA!

[@skylerssupercarlife348]

Yesssss

[@supporterofsanity]

I wish more car reviewers would take a few cues from your channel. Love that you emphasize all the things one would have to live with on a day to day basis. Like how you review the steering wheel, seats, controls, how everything looks and feels. Love that you don't emphasize drag times and numbers. I, like most people am not going to spend 2 hours on the weekend or way to work going wide open throttle and drag racing. I am going to enjoy comfortable seats and listen to a great exhaust or stereo. Thanks and congratulations!

[@taahasiddiqui1071]

Then why are you looking at a Mustang GT? Why pay almost 50k for a sports car when you could pay like 30k for an eco boost with some option since you dont care about performance?

[@supporterofsanity]

Taaha Siddiqui I said I like his style of reviews but that obviously went over your head. How the fuck do you get I don’t like performance?

[@knifetoucher]

You can't not ride a Bullitt without aviator sunglasses on.

[@chrisnightingale5529]

“This is of course MY 2019 Ford Mustang Bullitt”. Oh such sweet words :). Congrats Matt on an amazing car

[@joelb08]

Such a good looking car. No one is doing clean and simple in the car industry anymore.

[@tenbears6557]

Matt, YOU have inspired me to go for the 2020 Bullitt. I'm much older than you and believe me when I say that Steve McQueen was our hero back in the day as an actor and a MAN'S MAN !!! The movie was such an influence on me and my friends and just could not get enough of the Mustang. I see the joy on your face driving that incredible machine and cannot wait to get mine. Great video-essay !! Keep on truckin'!!

[@arthurhalcyon7410]

I'm really happy for you Matt! It always bums me out when people can drive their dream car and don't, so good for you! I'll always be there to watch your videos on this car

[@thedon9670]

If I had a dollar for every smile, I would have my Bullitt already.

Thanks Matt for the brilliant review !! Your enthusiasm is contagious !! I have one of the earliest of 250 Aussie bulitts arriving this year in late November !! Watching Matt helps me fill in the waiting time !! It sounds incredible !!

"a special thank you to Matt for letting me borrow is awesome bullitt mustang"

[@swimmer5886]

A huge congratulations, Matt! Btw, Sofyan coincidentally uploaded the review of his new Porche on the same day. It's almost like an unspoken rivalry!

[@91LX]

Hey Matt saw the Bullitt Mustang for the first time today at the Ford dealership with my son and we both fell in love with it. Very clean, reserved and timeless automotive design from Ford. We share your excitement with such an amazing car. Would love to own one someday. I think you made a great purchase!

[@lyndahammel9502]

This review never gets old.

[@kylewilken8654]

Great review . Traded in my 2015 GT in Guard Green with the 50th anniversary package last night . Lucked out and bought Bullitt # K0028 in Winnipeg lol I pick it up this Monday . Cant wait

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Congrats!

[@BL0HARD]

I’m largely in camp GM for V8 performance cars, but I think this car is pretty sweet, good work Ford only making this manual.

[@beidlern]

Being pigeon holed into any one camp only inhibits your experience to "All the heavenly glory" (to quote Bruce Lee in Enter the Dragon). I've owned an assortment of brands from Rotary, Ford, GM, Subaru and Jaguar F-type R. I had an 11 GT with the Coyote and have been convinced since that's it an awesome engine.

[@BL0HARD]

beidlern that scene in Enter The Dragon is awesome, I often think Bruce Lee would talk about the way we have become addicted to smart phones in the same way if he was alive today. Everyone is addicted to seeking stimulation through a tiny screen rather then experiencing the Heavenly Glory of the real world we all live in. “It’s like a finger pointing at the moon. Don’t concentrate on the finger otherwise you’ll miss all the heavenly glory!”

[@RetroCarsForever]

Been looking forward to this review...Been watching plenty of new Bullitt reviews, but I knew yours would be the most balanced, the most in-depth, and the most knowledgeable.

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Thanks Brad!

[@SamplesTB]

Loved my 08 Bullitt. This one is that and so much more. Congratulations Matt! The car is cool without even trying to be. Best looking S550 to date.

[@badrussian4999]

Steve McQueen looks from heaven, he likes this stallion!

[@roger3137]

You're smiling like the first day you saw it 😂 great review!

[@TheWVgoodguy22]

The review most of us have been waiting for. Way to be totally unbias and go through you normal review process on this absolute beautiful green beast of a car. You are right that Bullitt package isn't outpriced on the configurator vs a Premium GT and it has that extra specialness and uniqueness. As always it cracks me up and makes me smile (not as big as you do) when you finally were able to redline your baby down a straight stretch. Congrats once again on you attainable dream car Matt. :)

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Thanks Forrest!

[@Angryeddie14]

Ok, this is epic.

[@VEDEMRACING99]

Love the Mustang Matt! I’ve been rebuilding a wrecked 2016 GT on my channel and I’m really impressed with this generation of mustangs!

i love seeing this grow man become a child, its so freakin entertaining, like all his other revievs hes super calm but with this hes so excited and is talking at light speed

[@romeomk510]

I see why people like your reviews, Matt. You take the time to be thorough and informative, but give a candid and genuine view of your enjoyment of what you do. I bought my Veloster Turbo with influence from one of your reviews and it turned out to be a great buy. Congrats on your new car!

Absolutely love this Bullitt. I had a hand me down 2001 Bullitt in my senior year in highschool back in 2006 and it was so badass. Good times in that car. Can't wait to get this generation Bullitt.

Epic Mustang! Congrats!! Ford should offer that white knob shifter in all its manual Mustangs! Love that engine sound!

I can’t believe I may be getting one of these in a few months. I’m so excited. I’ve never had a brand new car but it would be so awesome to be able to. I’d be able to keep the car like new without worrying about previous owner neglect.

[@Kevinb1821]

I prefer taller gears. My 05 mustang gt has short gears. I think 4.10s and I hate it. I like 3.55 or even 3.31

[@digital_art_froth874]

Love how you hammer facts like you hammer that throttle; youre the reason I bought a 2013 Boss 302, thanks Matt!

[@curtisjude1276]

I have been enjoying my Bullitt and of course Matt's review. If I could change one thing it would be the clutch. Matt is right, it is tricky especially for those of us who don't drive the Bullitt as a daily driver. I loved the clutch in my 2015 Challenger 392 Scatpack, a nice soft feel that even a beginner could master quickly.

[@shawnpuffy]

Really happy for you Matt! Bad ass car! Your reviews are the best out there too.

[@ryanl.1362]

Old fans know he missed “huge thanks to Matt Maran for providing this car to review for you guys today.” :)

[@VQHRZ]

I’ve never seen the movie so I can’t appreciate the car in the same way but I’ve been following your channel for a while and know how long you’ve been waiting for Ford to make these again lol. Happy you were able to get your hands on one!

[@rembo183]

FYI: The Getrag (MT82); is a German company and make manuals for Porsche (GT4) and BMW. So the so called “critics” who say the manual in Ford Mustangs, like the Bullitt, are from a Chinese company, are wrong! Getrag actually makes great manual transmissions. Critics praise the manual in the GT4 and say it’s the best. So, we have a Bullitt with a Getrag manual, easily as good as Tremec, and used in the best high performance cars like Porsche and BMW.

[@randydodson1570]

I'm currently in the market to replace my daily and found a 19 Bullitt with 21,000 for 40,000. So much about this car to love with how far its come I'm ready to make this purchase!

So stoked for you man! The look on your face says it all. Congrats again she’s beautiful.

Just picked up my bullitt today. I can’t BELIEVE it. It was all an accident, I was just looking for a new GT and then came across this beauty. Cheers.

[@daven2505]

Hey Matt, great video. I had a UK car on order but Ford decided to take off the Torsen Diff, Gauge pack, Strut Brace and reduce power but still charge full price. So I cancelled. I call the RHD Bullitts Bullitt lite. Enjoy your as it should be product.

Great review Matt, I've watched all your Bullitt one's as I wait for my one in UK car in Nov/Dec, ordered green with only option available here, magna ride, so glad you and other reviews all recommend it. Not 100% sure of final speck for UK will be, down on power from US cars I know, it comes with recaros' standard (the GT I road tested in July had recaro's which did power back and forward, hopefully my Bullitt will be the same) also hope it will have the open air filter and larger throttle body. Do you have any more details on the specification for UK right had drive cars, or where I might find it?

[@christophergonzalez2353]

I love the color of this car 👍👍

[@Jamie-ww3yz]

I would powder coat the red calipers the green body color or black.

[@boomee78]

[@SoundRaster]

Thx for your nice review - great to see your "exhaust-smile". I've ordered my BULLITT and now I'm waiting for 2019 delivery. Greets from Germany to all car-freaks ...

[@kevindavis5966]

I've lost track of all the cars I told myself I was going to "keep for the rest of my life." That feeling usually lasts until the next obsession comes along. It's in your heart now because it's shiny and new and fast.

[@MattMaranMotoring]

I’ve always been obsessed with Bullitt though. I’ll have new cars I’ll want, and hopefully I’ll add those to the collection but don’t want to ever get rid of the Bullitt.

[@kevindavis5966]

I hope you do keep it! Congrats and enjoy; it's a great car.

[@Specter-iq6xm]

I completely agree with your points on the review. Most people think it is a eco boost and I love it. Worth the 54k if you love the movie and the car. I know how you feel, I love having my dream car, I know when I was 19 and saw a 2008 Bullitt I would own one someday. Worth the wait the 19 Bullitt is pure fun.

Hey Matt, great reviews. I pick up my Bullitt in two days. First Mustang too. Like you, I had the Xpel done to protect the paint. What a sound that thing makes too. The guy who ordered it backed out and I swooped in before he had a chance to change his mind. More giggles per gallon😀

[@kindofawizard8681]

Just got my 2019 Bullitt in black with the recaro seats. Only 28k miles on her, i've had her for 3 days and i was super worried because i've daily driven a tuned 03 cobra for the last 6 years. At first i really struggled with going from a stage 4 cable driven clutch to this super soft hydraulic one. Luckily setting my mode to have sport steering and traction control off is making me feel more comfortable. Love it so far.

[@tatj83]

Liking your plates. On my '08 the plates read JJZ 1Q9, close as I could get.

[@LopSidedPopCan]

Used to hate the facelift s550's, but now down the road when these start to become more affordable i would only want a facelift. Love the headlights and those slits on the back where the bullit/ GT badge is. Truly think this is a timeless design.

[@mr.2cents.846]

Those. Seats are by far good enough. You are not racing the car all the time. They are comfortable enough for long rides and hold you for spirited driving. What I personally would change is the bulky Bullitt badge on the back. I would exchange that panel for a blanc black one. People know it's a Bullitt.
