The Bullitt is the only Mustang that comes close to the GT350. With magneride, similar power, dual mode exhaust, and some interesting interior bits it makes a compelling alternative. For me, the new Bullitt exterior esthetics fall below the GT350, particularly the front fascia.
I think the 5.0 may be better from a long-term reliability standpoint, but the 5.2 voodoo is one of the all-time great motors. I think of it like the 1969 Boss 302 and 1969 Z28 motors for trans-am racing. Both are legendary, even though other engines from the time made similar power. They just stand out four decades later. The 5.2 is very exciting to drive.
I have already owned 3 supercharged mustangs and they are cool, but having a beautiful N/A motor is just a joy.
