New Bullitt owner

Just picked up a new '19 Bullitt this week.

This car is really very intoxicating to drive. The exhaust note is a little different from a regular GT. Not sure if it's mostly due to the GT350 Intake manifold and airbox or other exhaust tuning I heard the Bullitt team did but it sounds MAGICAL!

Sad to see my 2014 GT/CS vert go but this Bullitt is a big upgrade and I've wanted a Bullitt every time they made them previously but just wasn't in a position to get one in '01 or '08.
Here they are side by side when I picked up the Bullitt:

Good luck with the Dream Car Giveaway Bert!

It's definitely worth it, I've wanted a Bullitt since they started these special editions back in '01. I'd just bought a house in 2001, then in '08 I had just purchased an '06 a year and half earlier so I've never been in a position to get one so this is one of those "once in a lifetime" opportunities for me and the timing was right so I just had to do it.

Congratulations, it's a beauty. I drooled over a green one at the Charlotte Auto Show last Sunday. When I turned, and looked at the wife she just shook her head. I told her it would make a nice Christmas present, but I'm fairly sure at this point that didn't work at all.

BTW, I'll keep an eye out for you. I live in Concord, NC

Very nice. I guess I need to check one of these out. Everything sounds like it is a really catch. Most say there is nothing but minor changes left to do to the car. Sounds like Ford built the dream car for most. Congrats, they are a really nice looking car, even though it is green. There are only a few exceptions over the years and Mustang has found a few great colors in green.

Congrats! Sharp

Well if you prefer Black then you can probably get a GREAT deal on one! The Black ones seem to be sitting on lots and aren’t selling very well.

Saw one yesterday in dealer showroom.

They had added $10,000 to the sticker price. They called it a "market adjustment" because it was a "Limited Edition".

That's quite typical unfortunately.

Don’t let that stop you though. Dealers are starting to loosen up on the markups. I got mine at sticker without any markup and as these cars start to sit on lots there will be deals under MSPR to be had for sure.

I recommend that if your interested in a Bullitt, drive a performance pack level 1 GT and then go prepared to negotiate. Even though they’re asking for $5-10K over sticker, they’re really just trying to get as close to sticker as they can. This is the only car i’ve ever paid sticker for and I don’t regret it a bit.
