I'm not holding my breath in the short term, with all of the Americans moving away from sedans and hatchbacks, but if the crossover trend passes, who knows? Actually, I could see it coming back BECAUSE they don't have sedans or hatches of their own anymore. Let's say that people start buying regular cars (no relation) again, and Ford decides to get back in the game. They'll either have to engineer a platform from scratch, adapt a crossover platform, or partner with somebody and use their platform until they could come up one of their own. Maybe they'd patch things up with Mazda to make a Taurus based on the Mazda6, and make a new Probe based on the platform as well.

    These are criminally underrated cars. I’ve had a few as rentals, and they are phenomenal to drive. But when I started shopping for a new ride for at home, I couldn’t fathom buying one. The ecoboost mustang is like a 120 pound Rottweiler, you love going to your friends house and playing with it, but you’re glad you’re not the one that has to pick up it’s horse sized dumps when you go for a walk.

    Back in '97, I drove a car with engine sounds pumped in through the speakers...just not intentionally. It was a 1983 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale Brougham sedan. It had a V8, and I think it had something to do with poor insulation somewhere in the electrical system, since you could hear this popping that increased with revs. I thought it was kinda neat at the time.

The Mustang 2.3T is a quick and nimble sports car, all sensible people who have driven one realise how great it is. Not as quick as the Focus RS, but a million times better looking, and as much power as you will ever need in the real world. Very clever and witty review tho....I like!

It does also stop the active noise cancelling, which isn't a big deal when just on the road, but is a pretty big deal if using your phone with the bluetooth in the car. There's so much noise through your call that people can barely hear you. It's annoying, but if you plan on using hands-free anything in the car, keep it plugged in.

    EcoBoost Mustang just screams “rental car” to me. I live in LA and every other Mustang I see is a base model EcoBoost with out of state tags and two young girls who think they’re hot shit driving a $22k rented Mustang and are gonna make it big in LA, and then realizes all the casting calls they’ve been to are for adult films or are just straight up scams. Seeing the loss and emptiness in their eyes as they drop it off at the Avis next to the airport gathering their bags and preparing for their trip back to Minnesota. Anyways yeah that’s what I think of when I think EcoBoost Mustang.

    Saw a clapped out one of these on the interstate today. I guess 5 years is long enough for it to become a trailer park project car.

    I'm almost 100% sure that the ending song is to the tune of My Shiny Teeth and Me. Legendary work Roman

    The phenomenon of a tone played along with the same tone but inverted is called phase cancellation
