Which Ford should you BUY? 2019 Mustang GT PP2 or Bullitt? 

Picked up my 2020 Mustang Bullitt today. I feel like a kid on Christmas morning. LOL

That's a tough decision but I think my vote is for the bullitt. The dark highland green is so nice. It's a unique color without standing out too much and you can't mistake it for anything other than a bullitt. I can't get over how sick those wheels are on the PP2 though.

That Bullitt green is really growing on me! The stealth and better exhaust (imo) is a seller for me.

“Whether you own one or not. Everyone has a Mustang story “. love that quote

I purchased the 2019 Bullitt. Love the car! I opted for the Magneride and the upgraded electronics package. I left behind he Recaro seat option because I like power adjustable seats. Also the Recaro's I think look too big in the car. The exhaust system, brakes and overall performance is awesome! but no one mentions the audio system that comes with the upgraded electronics package. The B & O sound system is unbelievable to say the least! big mistake if you let that go by regardless of which Mustang you go for. I purchased early on in the release of the Bullitt, the Ford dealers here in Calif. were all asking a firm $10k. over sticker. With a little research I did found a dealer that quoted $5k. over, so I went with that. At the time of order/purchase last September, Ford was only saying that the car would very limited in production. No commitment as to how many? If I had to do it all over again for the cost markup, I would. The car was a want not a need. My second choice of Mustang would have been to fully option the California Special. Being from the San Francisco area, the Bullitt was too fitting to pass up.

WOW!! What a difficult choice. Two beautiful Mustangs that I would be satisfied with either one. At my age, I wouldn't be doing any track driving, so I think I would eventually choose the Bullitt. For me the Bullitt has more personality, being modeled after the Steve Mc Queen car. The GT is more affordable though, and will perform like a race car. As I said, its a difficult choice! Outstanding job on this presentation, Joe. Keep em' comin', thanks!

Your a lucky man driving all these vehicles but were also lucky your telling us what there like..thumbs up Raiti.

I bought the PP2, Recaro's, Pilot Cup 2's, Active Exhaust, Magne-Ride, Velocity Blue, love it. Whichever you choose I'm sure you won't go wrong.

Thanks for the comparison video. I went with the Bullitt. The MagnaRide suspension is really worth the extra $$$. I'm in the NC mountains and the Bullitt stays flat on the curvy back roads in Sport. Switch to Normal and it's luxo smooth on the interstate. The engineers at Ford got everything right with the Bullitt!!! Great everyday ride and the performance in always there when you want it.

Great review......that Bullitt's exhaust is perfect! What a glorious noise :)

The bullitt just for the collective aspect

The Bullitt is so clean ! That highland green is gorgeous. I would choose the Bullitt , both cars are great tho. Another sweet video ! Thanks man for bringing them to us

That's a difficult choice. The PP2 is more of my taste but the Bullitt has the name and history behind it. I'd probably lean more towards the PP2 because if I got the Bullitt I'd probably want to leave it stock.

All I need is for you to convince my wife to let me get a 2019 Bullett! lol Hey I'm not a race guy or speedster, but an almost 70 yr. old guy who wants to have a fun ride. Great review, love your channel.

That was an awesome side by side comparison! Excellent job man. I like the PP2 but wish it came with the better dash, center gauges.

Great comparison, just what I was looking for. Looks like the PP2 car in your vid is based on a base GT. The PP2 Premium GT looks like the closest comparison to the Bullitt. Digital gauge pack, upgraded leather interiors. Seems like it boils down to whether you prefer the toned down look and Highland Green of the Bullitt (and extra 20 HP) or the track upgrades of the PP2.

Love these Mustang vids.....can’t wait until you get your hands on a GT500 👍

Really nice presentation overall. Shows you really know what you’re talking about without long pauses or stumbling on words.

PP2 or Bullitt? Ruby or emerald? Either way, you're getting a gem! Here in Oz, the downunder muscle car fans sure do love Ford's decision to export in right hand drive. Kudos to Walker Ford for being so supportive, and letting you show off these beautiful beasts for us Joe and Tom :)

Bullet sounds so much better

I have the Mustang Bullitt 2019 very amazing car

I'm buying a 2019 GT next week and am so stoked! First Mustang ever. AUD 50k vs AUD 90k for the Bullitt. It was a no brainer for me. Although I do love the sound of the Bullitt, at nearly twice the price, I could not justify it.

I would get the PP2 Mustang with active exhaust, and keep it in the loudest mode so my neighbors will hear it too. It won't kill them! I would get it in black! With black wheels if available.

Buy the icon, Bullitt

I have a 2019 GT 5.0 PP2 with leather seats and the digital gauges. Go with a GT 5.0 PP2. MSRP is 43k. I gave 39K. I love it. It even has sport mode for the exhaust and quiete mode. 💪🏿

PP2 if you want to track it, Bullitt as a daily driver that will keep some value as a collectible in 10+ years.

Incredible video Joe! I love those PP2 wheels! Would love to have them on my PP1! Maybe someday. Both cars are gorgeous. I agree that the PP2 should come standard with active exhaust. And both should come with the Tremec 6-speed. You continue to knock it out of the park. So glad I found your channel way back when you only had like 2,000 Subs. Glad to be along for the ride brother 👍🏻

Bullit, There’s no other way around it. It’s the better investment.

I have a 2019 Bullitt, I've only put 7,500 miles on it so far. Ford "breathed" on these Bullitts a little differently: The shifting, the leather, they just feel special. The Dark Highland Green draws so many nice comments and thumbs up. I smile like a butcher's dog every time I drive it. This is by far the best Mustang I've ever owned ('74, '66, and '89 LX 5.0, in order).

PP2 FTW! But with blacked out logos. And I’m with you, it needs active exhaust. Oh and red calipers.

I would love to see Ford add the PP2 rims, suspension, and 2014-2017 Mustang GT hood and front fascia to the Bullitt Mustang. It would look Old School and more muscular. An Aluminator-equipped Bullitt would be nice! But I like them both! Great review!

These videos are my favorite. Keep up the great work!

i went to a dealer in Indiana that has a new Bullitt. I sat in the Ricaro front seat and I loved it. Nice and firm. Fit me very well. Loved the Highlander Green. Lusting after this car now. Very impressed. One of the highlights of my life to see it on showroom floor and sit in there and adjust that steering wheel to suit me.

"These brakes will stop time" lol love your reviews man, keep em coming! ON THROTTLE!!!!!! 🇬🇧

Hey Joe! Your making me jealous again, there both beautiful SPORTS cars. But I would prefer the PP2, love that magna ride. I wish they would offer the Tremic trans it would make it so much more reassuring. Great camera work Tom! ☺👍.

From this two, the PP2, I honestly don’t like the look of the bullit, only thing I like is the engine upgraded gt350 parts, which should had been on the PP2 as well IMO and the red brembo calipers, which you can buy separate now. but in general a PP1 with all the options and magneride, will be fine for me 😁, I think magneride is a must on any mustang. The wheels of the PP2 are sick, but man, 305 all the way around, insane. Great video Joe 👍👌

Nice review Joe! You are spot on about wanting the Tremec manual over the GT transmission. RU-vid is littered with tales of woe from owners with shift fork failures. Many waited weeks for parts to come in since there were so many out of service. I'm interested to know if they ever came out with a actual solution.

Insane cars, insane vid!! Good job

Outstanding comparison! I have learned a lot of info I would never have found out. Thanks Joe

What a dynamic duo (and I don't mean You & BGM) but my heart is set on the Bullitt.

I can't watch this until tonight but I wanted to get my vote in: BULLITT ALL THE WAY! (PP2 is awesome and it's probably what I'd get because I like to mod my cars a lot but Bullitt is a collectible and has more power and distinction.). Be back later to watch the vid.

Here in Canada MagneRide is standard on the Bullitt along with the Safe & Smart package. The only option is the Recaro seats.

I love your comparison videos Joe. I'd love to see you compare the 2020 Bullitt Mustang and the 2020 GT350

That bullit sounds amazing, loving the green colour and retro alloys and white gear shifter, definitely bullit for me 100% dream car 😍👌👌

I recently purchased a pp2 in oct.18. Took it to the track at NCM Motorsports ,Bowling Green ky. I'm right at 1000 miles, so I took it easy, but the car grips like nothin you will ever drive. Trust me !

That Stang's awesome...... I'd choose that PP2 any day....😍

Omg...that active exhaust 🤤. It’s the kind of sound that makes you purposely forget grocery items just so you can go back out and let it roar.

I’d take the performance pack 2 if I had to choose.

Was not a fan of this green but it is really growing on me and the sound of that Bullitt is amazing

12:20 I'd like to see you change gears with drinks in the cup holders lol

I love my 2019 Bullitt. It has everything except the Recaro seats. It runs and sounds so good. I always get compliments on the car. The one thing I wish is that I could remove the Bullitt badge on the back.

Great vid Joe. Very thorough. Really enjoyed it!

I became interested in the Bullitt when I visited a showroom for a different purchase. I bought one in May of 2020, during the pandemic, for $6k under sticker and 0% financing. I'm quite happy with the Bullitt and I doubt I will ever part with it.

I'm just waiting for them to make the bullit look like the original again, the butt of it and the headlights more than anything plus the classic interior is gorgeous

GT PP2 would be my choice. You don’t zonk as much when you are evaluating mustangs. 😀 Great video.

One year later finally pulled the plug on Bullitt #K7037. I love this car and with the current incentives at a price below sticker too. I can’t get enough of the active exhaust on this thing. The lines are so clean. I opted for the non Recaro car as the hot summer here with the cooled seats just works and with the electric seats and memory settings, both the wife and I keep our own optimized settings. Joe, let’s push the subscriber count to 300k this year.....take care all of the Raiti’s Rides gang.

Thank you for the Mustang content😝....cant get enough of your vids. Awesome review like always!!!👌👍🤘😎.

When I get mine I'll someone install custom differential cooling done (pp2) . . . this video is totally Frosty . Love it

Was it just me or did the PP2 without active exhaust sound just as good or better in the video? Great informative video. I really appreciate you pointing out all the basics that come with the PP2 version. Looking at left over 19's right now and wondered why the PP2 was cheaper than a California style I've found online. I guess the interior upgrades explain it all.

And while you're chatting and rowing the gears, you don't notice you hit 98 mph on a side road! LOL!

Joe...you know my answer...Bullitt!

5.0 litre Mustang.Bet That sounds like heaven buddy 😍

Love the package & wheels on the PP2- a true steal if you don't check off every option, but Bullitt all day, every day.

Also the Q ball shift knob is a plus .

Just bought a 20 Bullitt, no need for a radio track exhaust is a better sound system. Amazing car and color.

Thank you for this review. Very detailed and straight to the point. Thumbs up!

Hey Joe- I'm on the fence on a digital dash, is it worth it or not? Looking at a PP1 with Magenride & Active Exhaust. Still debating if I want the digital dash or not.

This is a hard one . I can’t afford them so I won’t take any 😂

When you spec bout out they are about the same price, the GT PP2 & Bullitt both has its pros & cons

The hardest choice i have, Bullitt or Ruby Red PP2, Magna ride for both, leather seats. I really want the Bullitt for the collector aspect and it being a special car, BUT and this is a big but, that Ruby Red color is undeniably the best color for a those mustangs. You should know the Promotion came through, i can now afford a new mustang. I will be ordering a 2020 as planed, im just seriously waffling between Ruby Red and a Bullitt. Its the last choice i have to make. I am leaning to the Ruby Red more, but the sound of that bullitt with that GT350 intake gives me hen flesh. Great comparison and camera work!

Great rides and a great review. Thanks for sharing :)

Those wheels on the PP2 look like no other domestic car. Fantastic vehicles. I'd take the Bullitt, though

I really like you videos, if you would take a feedback, I feel like the driving experience need more cameras, angles , exhaust view... audio. Just to make it more interesting :) keep it up also a close up of the digital gages

Bullitt...I like that green color.

Bullitt for me !! Awesome video Joe and Tom!!

Hey Joe, I see they’re coming out with a new eco boost performance package with a bigger turbo. 330hp and a wider power band. I always thought a Mustang had to be a V8 but a lighter car , better gas mileage and 0-60 in the 4 second range could be tempting! I think they’re gonna have one at the N.Y. Auto show . Gonna miss it this year! Moved to Phoenix last August. The one here wasn’t anywhere near as big. Looking forward to your videos from it!

The Bullitt for collectibility

I cant believe it was about 18 years ago I picked up my 2001 Bullitt. I think I paid $26,5 out the door. Of course the lot boy beat the %#$ out if it the day before. Rear fenderwells loaded with chunks of molten rubber. I told them - park it no prep. What Can You do, Hampton Ford knuckleheads. No scratch on the DS door though. Enjoy your 2019 Matt. It Sounds extrordinary! - Sandy

Looking at one of these and a 19 GTCS. I can’t believe at $52k the one I’m looking at costs more used than it did brand new.

Great Video!!! Steves is a great Machine!! I had 2GT’s and Liked them , A LOT!!! Hopefully pretty soon I’ll be getting my 3 rd. 73 and Mustangs . 73 yrs. Old that is.!!! Take Care All!!!

Gotta love the Mustang 👍💗😎

Get the Bullitt of course. It's more of an icon, sounds awesomly old schooland will hold it's value better.

This January I got the 19 BULLITT but in Shadow Black. The highland forest green was rolling out the driveway as soon as I went to the dealership, but I’m not mad. Black on black looks great, and I get looks left and right regardless. Besides, I’m no Steve McCool. Lol I was close on getting the PP2. It really was a sight to see. Leather seats, active exhaust, race red. However the dealership had the markup over 10k. It was a ‘20, and they gave me an offer for the ‘19 I couldn’t refuse. The BULLITT came out cheaper even with the magneride suspension added.

Could you feel the extra 20 hp on the Bullit?

GT350....oh my bad, wasn't an option 😂....Bullitt all the way between these two. Won't be as common, sleeper look, and they actually add performance to the Bullitt. I agree with you 1000%, but zonking the manual in the Bullitt is warranted. It should have been the Tremec from the GT350. The MT82 transmission is no good. Good video as always!

Bullit has a different exhaust sound also than the gt - they wanted it to sound like the movie.

I'm thinking I'll go with the PP2 GT and add a supercharger later on, rather than the BULLITT, which to me is more of a collector model. Also can we all agree that that "1/2" is way over played? It sounds like when you were a kid and were 6 months from your next birthday or your adding that extra 1/2 inch to your height.

They both r beautiful 👍👍😎🏝

The pp2 and option out for the air box and active exhaust would be my pick if I could afford it lol 😂 👍🏻

NOT bad for pricing! BULLITT ALL DAY 💪

Hated that "Torque Thrust" style wheels as that's what Ford had equipped my 16 GT with and ended up using them for winter wheels. Even in the end they were so ugly I ended up selling them for aftermarket wheels for my winters...

Custom ordered a PP2. Wish it got the HP boost like the bullitt, that’s my only complaint.

Interesting video... I have a 2016 GT Premium with Performance Pack (I guess you call it PP1) here in California. I leased it for 3 years and at the end of my lease, I purchased it. This care has 435 HP and 460 FT/LB torque, however it also has the 8 speed Automatic along with 3.73 gearing. I didn't see/hear what the Mustangs you were showing, but I believe they only have the 3.55 gearing with the manual trans... That said, my 2016 is super unique. It will dust any mustang with a 3.55 gearing and manual gear box. However, I'm also running 20" wheels which came stock from the factory with Pirelli P Zero Nero's in 265/35/20 all around. At the end of my lease after 3 years, I only had 10.200 miles on the car, but he Pirelli's were already worn down on the inside tread (all 4 tires) to the steel threads... As disappointing as that was and remembering how slick and uncontrollable the care was in the rain, I switched to a new wheel and tire. 20" all around but with a staggered 305/35/20 rear and a 285/35/20 front with Continental Extreme Sport tires. No longer do I have a traction control problem, but grip on corners I thought couldn't be achieved.Anyway, what I'm saying is, after 4 years of ownership and only 12,300 miles on my ride, it is well invested. I'm an old man by any regards today, I had my fun and racing back in the day, so I'm more about performance when needed, not racing. My Stang does the job and quite impressively so. What is weird is, the "Sticker" of my Stang does not mention any "Magna-ride" suspension or "Active Exhaust", however, when I tap the toggle to "Track" mode, the suspension tightens down along with the steering as well as the exhaust note. I believe it is the same, but I think Ford capitalized those functions as an additional selling point just to boost the price a bit.Back in 2016, my Stang was stickered at $46,235. It has everything, including Navigation, heated and cooled seats, pure leather. I just can't see giving up such a great car for later model years as they are unimpressive...

“Some other cars... similar to the mustang ... but not like the mustang.” 🤣. I’d go with the pp2. Thanks for your excellent work Joe!

Wow the Bullitt. My husband just purchased one its the beast of the road

Still prefer the Bullitt ... it is a latest interpretation of the old 1970 high performance street car while the PP2 is more like a track car ... really like the Bullitt’s clean front mesh with surrounding chrome, chrome around the window and the white cue-ball stick shift ... wondering if Ford would later release the Bullitt with non-digital, old style instrument cluster for more iconic one.

Bullitt hands down especially on how it's spect out. The seats, digital dash and heated steering wheel. The way that PP2 is spect is not what I would expect for the price someone would pay. And it's more for the track.

The regular mustang should go to 180 on the speedometer. I think the gauge looks better with the space between the 20 markers tighter.

They both tickle different areas, so the choice of direction is some what confusing! Like you at 27:02 Do you take the one on the left or the right?LOL GOT YA

Two special model trims from a car that has established a completely new car niche back then - that's the stuff for becoming iconic. I think the Bullitt edition looks just gorgeous when seen in person. But the GT PP2 really has more of a performance look to it; these wheels are so beautiful. And yes, I love Christmas, too - but please don't, the red brake calipers on the Bullitt coming from the original in the 1960's, woulnd't a dark green have also been a nice colour with a modern touch?! Can't understand Ford either why they don't deliver the PP2 with the power plant of the Bullitt, would perfectly fit. Besides that, awesome review as always.
