Corporate Fleet / Build Date

[torroba]

I've noticed a few 2019 Bullitts showing up recently at dealerships as used corporate fleet vehicles with 1,000 miles or less, but the dates don't line up on the Carfax. For example, one has a date on the Window Sticker of 9/2019, but the build date on Carfax says 4/2018. I've seen fleet vehicles before, but not with these date discrepancies. So far, I've seen three like this. Also the Carfax date agrees with the build date on the door jamb. Anyone know what this means? Would you consider such a car or be wary?

Only reason I wouldn’t consider a fleet is because they get treated like rental cars. I know they are built to handle abuse but I would always worry.

someone in here talks about it saying corporate fleet when it was a repo just something to look out for.

What is the VIN number? The first production Bullitt's were produced on 06/21/18, so not sure that 04/18 makes sense.

I've seen a few, but here is one example - VIN 1FA6P8K02K5499915 at Krieger Ford:

That only adds to the mystery. My understanding is all MY19 Bullitt's are K55....

You would think if it was a Bullitt, they would show a picture of the dash plaque, showing the chassis number...….

Seems like you have found a "PP" or "MP" numbered Bullitt, which some of us longtime Bullitt owners consider a little more "collectible" (I don't mean that in the "guaranteed to be worth more" sense necessarily) because the numbering is different. I know someone, for instance, that has one of the 2008 Bullitt Mustangs that was used in the media drive and actually jumped as part of a magazine photo shoot! The cars are reconditioned and are roadworthy. I understand some don't like the idea of having a fleet car.

I have PP022 (pilot production). Carfax and sticker on door match- produced 4/3/18. VIN ends in 999xx (xx should be close to the PP number but as others have found it won’t match exactly). It was registered in Michigan in September 2019 with 10 miles on it. Dealer bought it from Ford in October and it had 1200 miles on it when I bought it. I believe that’s a combination of miles driving it to Chicago from auction and then dealer driving/demoing.
