2019 Mustang GT PP2 - The Most Underrated Mustang EVER!

- At long last! My review of the 2019 Mustang GT with the Performance Pack Level 2. I take you on a tour of the car, give you my personal impression of the car, take it for a drive as well as attempting a few acceleration launches, which weren't all that great but still exhilerating! This car's level of performance is just shy of the coveted Shelby GT350, but with some discounts and rebates, can be had for the cost of fairly used GT350s that are a few years old.
“Brooke I’m filming “ *she goes to the dead racoon looking thing*
I like pp2 the only thing i would keep from pp1 is the spoiler. Good job with the review
Yeah I do like the PP1 spoiler. Thanks for watching!
those wheels are sick
PP2 is the new standard. Great video.
Thanks!
😂 the new standard?
@@trayton103 why is that funny? In the Mustang world, it is considered the new standard by many.
Oh maybe the mustang world. But not in the segment
Great review, I just picked up a base 2020 pp2 for 39,000. It’s was set up exactly like your car but with black cloth recaro, and it came with the non digital gauge cluster. MSRP was like 49,000.00. Thanks to covid-19 I got a steal. This car was less than some pp1 cars.
Amazing deal! Lot of performance for the money.
How did you get it that low?
I almost want to call BS on that price. For the past year or so people are lucky to pay MSRP let alone get $10k off the price.
Very nice! I have the velocity blue. I changed tires to MPS4s and put 295 in the front. I also added very subtle mud guards on the rear to help protect the rear fender. Those sport cup's 2s will chip away the front quarters / bottom skirt area in the front and the rear quarter in the back.
Sick car bro you got all the options I would want except for the active exhaust.. Love the digi dash, the leather recaros, premium package, performance pack 2 because of those wheels(my favorite to come stock on a mustang I like those better than the gt350 rims even), magneride, even that color is beautiful.. Awesome car man great choice!
Thanks! Love every minute!
Nice! I bought mine in 2018, I live south of Houston and I’ve taken her up to Austin a few times. She just eats up in the hills, got pulled over by lago vista lol cop was cool, realized it wasn’t just a regular GT. Those cup 2 though, I got almost 5k miles out of them lol running MPS4S 325 in the rear seen by boy nolie in the comments. Enjoy the car, you’ll love it more and more
Very cool! That's awesome that the cop was cool. I got pulled over recently, of all times, while I was on my lunch break! >:o This car begs to be driven fast! Thanks for the updates on the tires. What size Sport 4S' are you running up front?
Nice one. It's funny because throughout history, the mustang got new styling n refreshes frequently - every few yrs but it seems that this one is the longest lasting gen of the mustang
The S550 is definitely one of the best styles they’ve produced for a Mustang. The S650 is basically the same thing with some tweaks.
welcome to the club ... pp2 life . im running H-Pipe MBRP race cat back no drone at alll feel free to ask me any questions . my pp2 is red and white
Nice! Thanks. Loving it so far!
Nice vid! Dad mode! I feel you bro! Pp2 is my dream car. Thanks for all the details! Bummer it’s only a 3 year package (18,19,20)😣 Means their value will prob remain strong.
I hope you’re right. Although to me it’s value is priceless! Thanks for watching!
super sad and disappointed that they will be discontinued with the arrival of the 2021 mach 1. Excellent in depth video by the way! almost every option i would want except the all weather mats and the b&o sound system with the subwoofer i love my music when i’m cruising 😂
definitely my dream car the more i learn about it, and the more i see them, the more i fall in love with them. super sad to say i’m 19 working at cfa while in college 😣 even with a great deal idk if i could afford it
It was the same with me. The more I researched and learned about it, the more I felt it would fit me perfectly. I originally had my mind set on the Shelby GT350, but they were just that much more out of reach. At least in the condition I wanted. I'm sure you'll be able to afford one of these at some point. Never say never!
Great review, exactly the car I'm looking for. Thanks.
Glad I could help!
@@TheNotSoOrdinaryCarGuy You really did, that drive to Brenham was totally worth it, the only thing I thought they were good for was Bluebell Ice cream ☺I'll contact the dealership.
This is hilarious! I literally got the same car 2019 in race red w/stripe PP2 for just a couple of hundred dollars more in March also! It was a great deal for those paying attention and were able to move on it.
Nice! Race red would have been my #1 color choice. I had it on my 2016. Enjoy it!
I have a ‘20 PP2. I ordered mine and checked all the boxes on the order sheet so it’s got leather recaro’s, active exhaust, digi dash, b+o stereo. One word to all those complaining about tire wear. The tires are awesome if you track the car regularly which I do. If you don’t chance to the 4S’s. The tires optimize the cars performance. If you are worried about tire wear maybe you should have got a focus.
My car is black with charcoal interior. I installed the FB GT350 brake kit, GT350 wheels(necessary with the brake kit), a diff cooler, FP oil separator, and various suspension goodies from Steeda. The car is rock solid reliable on track and actually faster than my former GT350 that had an engine failure. It currently runs 1.15’s on the lightning course of my home track NJMP.
Awesome! I need to look into doing what you did. I’ve currently got around 6500 miles on my Cup 2s. Fronts are below wear bars (rotated from rear) and rears are right at the wear bars. Love the grip, although they do break loose a lot on accepting first gear. Maybe they haven’t warmed up enough which wouldn’t be an issue on the track? I haven’t tracked them yet so idk.
And The Focus I used to own came with Cup 2s also. Lol!
Love the shirt and the review!
Thank you!
Really enjoyed the video. TU. With that said, one thing I wished you would have touched on a little more is the ride quality for just cruising around when you put it in normal mode. Does it right really nice and smooth and comfortable?
YW! It probably is the best riding mustang for how well it handles. The magnaride does an excellent job keeping the vehicle planted and stable in any terrain. And especially for having such wide tires (305s all around), it absorbs bumps and undulations really well while still allowing some amazing handling. You're right, I should have pointed that out. Thank you!
...and here I am cutting into my PP2 with an angle grinder, chopping things apart.... xD
You gotta make it your own, right?
Great video. The kid is hilarious. You got a really good deal on that car. I paid a lot more for mine in Aug of 19. They wouldn't budge much on the price that early. I guess it paid to wait.
Thanks! I think the combination of them having this one for so long at this particular dealer, it's location was pretty far from major cities, and the looming covid19 lockdowns, all contributed to them giving me the deal they did. Oh, and it was the very last day of the month (February 2020) and probably wanted to make quota.
@@TheNotSoOrdinaryCarGuy All good info for a next purchase. Not hoping for another pandemic of course. But end of month, model years, and dealer location are key.
Are they decent for daily drivers or is to harsh?
@@tommybrumfield3052 The magnaride gives it a very daily-drivable ride considering how well it handles.
Love the color, the GT PP2 really looks mean and aggressive. Good to know you got nearly 8 grand off msrp, I’ll use that to my advantage when buying. Would you recommend this over the GT 350? I mean if you get such a good deal on it I would say yes.
Yeah I would recommend this if you're buying this new, especially vs a new GT350. There's used GT350s in the low 40s but then you're getting a pretty used Shelby vs this new. I've also heard of reliability issues with the GT350s.
Thanks, that’s my concern with used GT 350’s and GT500’s. May be well priced and low mileage but even at 8,000 miles those things I bet you are pushed to the max which means future problems down the road.
Wow $8000 off MSRP!!?? I'm looking at 2019 now. They have the 84 month 0% but I haven't seen that big of rebates around me
@@TheNotSoOrdinaryCarGuy The GT PP@ really is unique in it's own way plus the value you can't beat. In reality most owners customize them anyway.
@@TheNotSoOrdinaryCarGuy so have I with the voodoo 5.2 Litre. Used Shelby's need to be thoroughly inspected regardless of how low the miles are.
I got a Tuxedo White. Very nice car
Very nice!👍
Gorgeous machine 🔥🔥
Got mine in Velocity Blue. Put My Mode in Sport + and add track exhaust mode and watch your neighbours move. lol. The Cup 2 tires for me lasted 10,000 kms. I replaced them with General GMax tires, those are what come on Saleen Mustangs, great grip, actual treads, 50,000km warranty I think. Those tires are not pricey either, unlike the Cup 2's. Nice car.
Awesome! Velocity Blue is an excellent color! Thanks for the tire recommendation! I'm dreading when these finally need replacing.
Beautiful car and I think the exact way I'd buy one too. I love the wheels but the tires probably not so much. I found a lightly used one with a supercharger already installed... maybe Santa Klaus will deliver it for me. I think got one heck of a deal on yours.
Thanks for watching! Hopefully Santa delivered you something special today. Lol!
Has any PP2 owner here ever seen another one on the road? I've yet to see one pull up next to mine. White w red recaros. I love it.
I have yet to see another one on the road in person. Only seen two other's on dealer lots, locally.
I have a 2019 pp2 and have yet to see another one on the road. I had mine at Steeda in Pompano Beach, FL and had Kooks long tubes with cat delete and Steeda’s axle back, Steeda’s cold air and tune with the e85 tune, Steeda’s sport springs, Steeda’s short shifter. Next will be a Paxton.
Big Nasty nice! Would love to see it!
@@onetrickpony5884 Sounds awesome. Feel a lot of difference with any particular mod? Besides sound, did the exhaust make a performance difference? Was E85 noticeable? Mine is still stock and I'm itching to mod it but don't want to waste time and money. Please advise.
Anthony Pallatta
Definitely noticed in the seat power with the long tubes and cold air with the 93 tune from Steeda. I haven’t put the e85 in it yet, plan on doing that this coming weekend and will let you know how it feels.
I wish ford didn’t discontinue the PP2 but to be quite honest I don’t go to tracks and I rarely go to the drag strip. So any performance pack wouldn’t have been put to good use for me. I do love the pp2 wheels and I could go for the brembos. I just ordered a 2022 Mustang GT Premium with the 401a package and Recaro seats. I’ll end up putting the sve sp2 wheels which are comparable to the pp2 wheels then probably some coil overs or fords suspension package, brembos, and a catback then just save up for a supercharger.
Ford pretty much took features from the PP2, Bullitt and GT350 and put them together and now call it the "Mach 1" and charge thousands extra! Lol! I never took mine to the track, but the way it handled with the magnaride and those mighty 305s front and rear, was unsurpassed by any other car I had driven. You'll love your GT with the 401a though! You can't go wrong with any S550 GT IMO! Enjoy!
@@TheNotSoOrdinaryCarGuy yeah I do love the Mach 1 but can’t justify that 54k MSRP price tag. Then you have dealer mark ups. And I’d love a used gt350 but don’t want to deal with an oil consuming voodoo although they sound superb. So 5.0 will do just nicely. Thanks, take it easy!
How did you get that good of a deal on the car?
It was a leftover 19 that I bought in spring of 2020, so they had it discounted quite a bit. And it was the end of the month (February) when I actually talked numbers. Also I think that even though the PP2 has amazing performance, people either go a step further and get a GT350, or they're just not ready to replace the expensive tires so they go for the PP1 instead. This is all just my guessing.
Dude if you sell that car in 18 months or so keep me in mind. That is the exact spec car I’m looking for soon as my truck is paid for. I’ve wanted a gray GT ever since my dads customer had a gray LX notchback 5.0 when I was about 5.
Thanks! You never know, I do switch cars quite a bit. Although I'm just loving every minute with this car! My Dad had an 84 GT 5.0 when I was 5. Same deal, special place in my heart for the 5.0. Lol. Fox body LX notchbacks were the ultimate sleepers back then. Thanks for watching!
I like your review, most guys who are having problems are dogging the car.
In my experience, there is no perfect car.
Love the car.
You’ll have to let us know how many miles you get out of those tires
Will do!
Well I finally got rid of the Cup 2's for some Michelin Sport 4S'. The Cup 2's had about 7300 miles on them. I probably could have gone another couple thousand but they were already below the wear bars and Costco had a great deal on the Sport 4S' so I decided to make the switch.
My dream ride bro, but blue seats, kona blue with the black racing stripe
Nice!
Great video bud I have almost the same exact car with the exception of the Active exhaust witch I have don't have the seats you have still have leather other than that is all the same even the color very nice car and you're right this is the closest thing to the Shelby have upgraded few things starting with exaust different tires shift knob rear spoiler interior LED lighting but it is a great car enjoy
Nice 👍 It is a great color.
I have a 19 pp2 and I love it thanks
Awesome! Enjoy it!
I’m so close to getting a new Mustang. I’m just having a hard time letting go of my F150. I’m worried that have the thrill is gone after a few months in the Mustang I’m going to miss my truck.
This happened to me before on a previous Mustang. Had it for a few months then ended up trading on a truck. The car was great, I just missed that utility and off-road capability. I'd say keep the truck and wait until you can afford a second car. Just my $0.02 because the part of you that liked the truck will regret it. At the same time though, you live you learn and sometimes the itch is too great. Whatever you decided I wish you the best! And thanks for watching!
what did you decide? i personally have a mustang and wouldn’t go back. yes i have a truck and a ranch, and off-road a fair bit. also the truck is better for hauling people and other miscellaneous items. but for a sunday fun day, date night or to daily drive you can’t go wrong. especially when you start to mod it:)
How does one find a pp2 gt? Just hunt dealer inventory websites?
It is rather difficult to find since most car search engines don’t have the Performance Pack 2 as a trim level, option or package. I was able to find them by searching and browsing through Performance Pack 1 optioned Mustangs or entering “Performance Pack 2” or “PP2” in keyword search on sites such as autotrader or cargurus.
*Great looking car but what about the oil consumption,still?my local Ford wants $55k for same one*
So far I haven’t noticed any oil consumption. And that’s priced a bit high.
@@TheNotSoOrdinaryCarGuy that’s good to know,also I think the price for this Mustang are little crazy,they also have a 2020 with 1.500k no Recaro seats for $44k
lol @ 'somebody didn't like that'. Active exhaust is worth getting :}
Yeah I would have liked to have the active exhaust. I'm just glad they didn't make the non-active one as quiet as the 2015-2017s.
Nice ride
Thanks 👍
I liked the video shot over your shoulder while driving. You don't see much of that.
Thanks for the feedback! I'll have to incorporate more of those types of shots into my videos.
@@TheNotSoOrdinaryCarGuy I probably shouldn't be leaving feedback here; I drive a 2017 Mustang V-6. I don't have the cajones to pull the pin for a GT.
A Stanton1966 I’ve driven a V6 convertible 2017 with a manual transmission before. I thought it was actually pretty impressive. And definitely something you can’t get new anymore.
change the tires . i have been happy ever since went down to 285 in the front with 35 wall
I watched your video showcasing the tires. They still retain the wide stance, which I was a bit surprised.
I’ve heard these tires don’t last 5k miles
Well I’ve currently got 5500 on them. Still hanging in there but will need to be changed soon.
The Not-So-Ordinary Car Guy is it worth keeping those on if it’s driven often? Or should/can they be swapped and only used on the track
pls help I would take these off and make them my track tires with dedicated wheels. Then get some other tires for the daily.
It definitely is good looking but man that fender gap has to go! It must be lowered!
I'm used to my Jeep's fender gap so this seems fine to me. lol! Thanks for watching!
@@TheNotSoOrdinaryCarGuy Its looks good with the fender gap, It's comparable to many other cars. I don't know why Mustang owners are obsessed/brain washed with fender gap...lol.
Good video. I just ordered and received my 2020 pp2 on March 14. It’s an amazing car. I love it. Unfortunately I live in CT right now. But I’ve had some sunny day’s to take her out. I changed to nitto tires NT555 g2. Great tires. Check them out
Very nice! Congratulations on your new mustang! How many miles on the Cup 2s?
I took them off right away. Everything on the road was getting picked up as you know. I got some paint chips n the few days that I did drive with them. But the nitto’s are great and I’ve learned they are the top tire for mustang owners.
how much does a PP2 costs??
The 2019 Mustang GT base price is $35,355. The Performance Pack 2 costs $6495 so at the minimum you're looking at a MSRP of $41,850. Then once you move up to the Premium mustang and other options it starts adding up. But they do often go down in price towards the end of the year.
not to bad if you buy it right now at 0 percent
I ordered the 2020 pp2 with 401a and security package. B&O stereo. Msrp was $50,700 appx. And I got $1k off. So $49k.
Matthew Smith nice! The B&O stereo is a nice upgrade. I should have mentioned that I only have the standard stereo. Not even the Shaker. But to be honest, I usually have the volume turned down anyways, so I can hear that beautiful exhaust tone! Lol. Congrats on your new mustang!
Matthew Smith I think even at or close to msrp, this is such a great car for the money. I just happened to get lucky and found this leftover 2019 that they’d been trying to get rid of.
Lose the kid in the videos man. Nice stang and spec.
Thanks! Sometimes you just have to bring them. Part of being a Dad!
👍🏾
use prorection guys.....
Lol!
LMAO
That wings gotta go!
What wing? lol
