kind of nice to have in your collection...
Just checked and I see a lot of Bullitt's are on local dealer lots, where there were basically none before Christmas. These must be the second allocation's, all in the 3,200+ VIN No. range up to #3809. I also see they are all at MSRP and qualify for a $2,500 delivery allowances......

Nice to see a little love for the Mustang/Bullitt.
Well after almost two months of ownership, I finally got the Bullitt Break-in (1,000 miles - 1,600km) done. Basically kept it below 4,500 rpm in most driving, Well summer is dome and last week was one final kick at it, so on Friday, I hit the road for an 800km (500 mile) run, to get it through...
Well, Not my first choice, but not bad all things considered. The obvious choices were all gone:
BULLIT
BULITT
BULIT
BULLTT
And they wouldn't let me have JJZ 109, because it is the same combo as regular license plates in use....
Is it just the Bullitt or are all Mustang horns this bad..... I can't use it, it's so embarrassing.
So looking for suggestions on a replacement. The horn on my Escape is descent, so Ford do have descent horns.... May see if the dealer can swap it out for the Escape horn...My VW horn is best...
Posted it in the "2019 Mustang Bullitt First Drive Reviews" Sticky thread.
Overall a pretty descent review notwithstanding he is not a fan of the movie. He drove the car on Monticello Raceway....which was nice to see it get pushed hard....
So, looking at the Ford.ca and Ford.com sites, there is quite a difference in listed curb weights. At Ford.com, it is listed as 3,850 lbs, while at Ford.ca it is listed at 1,995 kg or 4,389 lbs.
Is this because in Canada, the Bullitt is fully equipped with MagneRide and electronics package...
For those with an '18 GT and PP1, is the Ford prepaid maintenance plan worth it. What I am curious about is the Brembo brakes. Anyone had to do the front brakes? If so, how many miles and what was the cost. Are they more expensive than non-Brembo brakes.
Anyone tried it yet?
I have the Bullitt added, but it does not have the remote function, so I cannot lock and unlock the car. Its shows fuel and maintenance items only. I am wondering if it is becauyse it is a manual and the remote feature only works with the Auto (Remote Start), or is it...
Damn! Close but no Cigar!
Well I knew my car probably came down the line ahead of Matt's , so was hoping my Chassis number would get close to my VIN, and possibly win the lottery and have them the same. The odds are probably pretty low. Well. got real close. Pretty happy all the same. Note...
Well, my Bullitt has arrived at the dealer, according to COTUS checker anyway. Will go and see for myself later this morning. :) So the 07/27 was the first EDD on COTUS!
Eager to find out my chassis number....
