I don’t mind the eco boost! It’s nowhere near as cool at the V8 but it’s still a fun car to zip around in. If it’s the convertible version then it’s a hoot during fall/spring. It’s not hard on the wallet, it’s plenty fast for daily use, fun to drift around. I’ll give you the exhaust though, it does not sound amazing. It sounds like a hot hatch honestly. But it’s still definitely fun if you want something newer for less money. If you’re willing to go a bit older you can for sure get an 8 year old, lower mileage GT for the same money as a newer eco boost.

2/3rds? Except, per Ford: 2017 Focus RS: 3434lbs 2023 Mustang EB Fastback Manual 3,491lbs... RS has plenty of other selling points, but smaller != lighter
Hmmm...my 2016, which I ordered from Ford, has 114,000 miles. No issues. Iove my MBRP street exhaust, gives it a great exhaust note. Still love it 8 years later...if I want more horsepower, it's easy to get more. The Ford Performance tune gives you 20 more horsepower and changes the character of the engine (pulls all the way to redline).
Just take good care of it and don’t push it to far it was never meant to a over the top road tearing kind of car it was built to take to wherever u need to go and look nice at the same time
I loooove my 2020 Ecoboost convertible. It’s quiet, so I can hear the music from the wonderful sound system. I don’t race, so the “bragging rights” of high horsepower are silly to me. Yet it has plenty of power on tap for those rare moments where it’s needed. And the interior is fine, sporty yet plenty comfortable.
1 you can upgrade it and keep up with stock GTS and get turbo noise, 2, lies my homie had a good exhaust on it it sounds deep and good, 3 the gt has the same interior
Your first is BS because any research online shows there are TONS of ecoboost over 100k mikes with no faults. (like the one I own Second reason is wrong because there are 100% exhausts that sound good they just don't make it sound like a roaring V8. The reviewers that shit on the sound are the same ones who complement other 4 cylinder cars exhaust because that's the motor you expect to be in the chassis. Perfect example is the brz. Almost never hear a u negativity about the 4 cylinder exaustbut if that SAME sound came out of a mustang people would hate because its not what they're use to hearing. Third reason is also super wrong because you chose the base interior. I'm not telling you to not buy ANY f150 because the interior is shit when I reviewed an XL instead of a limited I've never seen you before but this review is a back to back to back bad takes. I mean the only reasonable one is the exhaust but even that I totally disagree with and the only reason I'm not as worried about that is because that's such an opinionated topic 2 people are almost never going to agree.
Add a few more horsepower to the 4 cylinder eco boost and it’s going to blow up. It’s at its limit stock. Tons of the ford focus RS with the same engine and a different tune which makes 350 hp had problems.
The small screen is weight reduction, cloth seats are better and lighter than leather, and Ecoboosts are great mothers and is the best sounding 4cyl imo..
Well, when you upgrade by adding Rouche cold air intake, Precision Turbo, upgrade exhaust and you’ll have a very exciting machine that produces 400HP, turns heads and makes you a real show stopper! 😎🌴
Yes but those mods and the base price you're paying well over the 5.0 which has a v8 and almost 100 more hp then you'd get even with those mods at base
You can actually get 450hp from a CAI, downpipe, exhaust, and a tune. All those mods together are like 2.5k. Throw on a turbo bolt on, 3k and you're making well over 500hp. It's been proven all over youtube. So yea I agree with you, you can mod these things cheap. Buy a car for 30k mod for 5k, 35k you're making well over gt
I agree you should avoid the ecoboost instead of the extra 6k for a v8, but the interior issue isn’t an ecoboost problem, that’s a base model, base model gts have the same interior
You can get a ecoboost premium car that has leather / heated and cooled seats and the big sync3 screen lol 2.3 has no issue making 310hp… the engines in vehicles much heavier. Your only valid point was reason #2.
I have a full exhaust and down pipe and I can promise you it isn't quite and it doesn't sound bad at all and have had multiple people tell me how good it sounds. Soooooo
There’s actually a really good reason to not get the coyote. That reason is the cost of the car and insurance. It’s one thing to get the car it’s another thing to insure it. Most people looking at these are very young including me. I’m an 18 year old male and with just about every insurance I’ve gone to it’s between 400-800 per month. That’s more than most car payments it’s honestly not worth it,and the highest I’ve seen so far on an ecoboost is 200 a month. Don’t get me wrong that’s still expensive but it’s a lot better than paying for the price of a V8. I also don’t need all of that power there’s no need to drive your cars super hard because in the long run you are damaging them. Yes I understand that’s the point of a mustang to abuse it but a lot of people don’t see that they don’t have the money for repairs. That’s why I believe the ecoboost is a great option because it’s not painfully slow and you can still do everything a 5.0 does just not as quickly.
@znet7545 ur right to an extent. In ur situation u should not own one. Insurance at ur age is high no matter what. I was paying 200+ for a hyundai sonata. As you keep Insurance, good record, and age up, it significantly drops. My heavily built camaro is only 75 a month full coverage. Only drive what u can afford, and only drive to your own limits. Learn slowly and responsibly. 18 is too young for more than 300 wheel horse tops.
Maybe not get a v8 because someone doesn't want one? When I got my first wco I bought just to see how much power I could get. Then I got a gt. And now I have another eco because I love the car. Easy to mod and fun to throw around. Not everyone cares about a v8.
@@Lucidilluminate well MOST people who want a muscle car want the v8. But it's not really about a v8 in general, it's just that the coyote is an exceptional NA V8. Better motor than the eco. If I was I'm the market for a mustang I'd go that route. With my s4 I chose the v6 supercharged over the v8, so ya it's not always about a v8.
@@Hopelessthugg I mean I have both. Yea sure the coyote is better. I like the eco more tho. More fun to mod and test limits on. It comes down to personal preference or situation. I've always hated when people say if it's not a v8 it's not a muscle car, or that's not a mustang because it's an eco. I wish people would just respect other people's builds even if it's not their thing or what they like. These ecos make more hp than some of the dated v8 mustangs. Shouldn't those people be saying those aren't real mustangs? Or are they literally just mad about 8 cylinders versus 4? It's so confusing
The real reasons not to like it are the weight. It's a heavy car. But honestly with soo many cars being marked up at least you can get this for a decent price so quit bitching
You stated the most retarted reason at first the gr Corolla is a THREE CYLINDER are you following me? That can withstand 100hp per cylinder and comes with a drift mode so it can redline just fine. Idk why you'd think a mf 4 cylinder is gonna struggle with 310hp in 2024 come on man..
The only thing you got right is the exhaust sound is truly garbage so just keep it quiet. The motor isint especially unreliable and the interior isint bad yours is just clapped out
The only valid one is the sound. The v4 engine with turbos is about as reliable as the good ol v8. Just take care of the d*m thing and evrything will be fine. As for the interior, is the same interior than the v8 mustang. Maybe some differences in the fabric base on the trim but its the same thing.
I had a ecooboost then got a 5.0 man let me tell you eco boost suck ass they feel to cheap and slow for a mustang 5.0 is definitely a different beast man avoid a eco boost at all times
Well. To be fair that interior comes on the GT aswell. You can get the premium interior in the ecoboost. But at that point you’re paying base 5.0 price lol
Maybe someone who is paying for premium eco wants it for the premium features. So why settle for a base 5.0 with not features other than the 5.0. Not everyone cares about a 5.0. Not everyone cares about a v8. Real car people will respect people's choices and not talk down on them because they don't have a 5.0. And before you say I don't have one. I have a 2020 GT CS and a 22 eco
It's 1.3 liters less... with a small turbo. These engines can put put upwards of 800hp if you do it right. They can push 500hp very easily with a few mods and a good tune.
How an engine runs is it bassicly beats the piss out of itself to move you forward, the more load on the cylinders the harder it beats itself meaning more wear and tear, however I would be far less worried about the pressure the cylinders is taking which will caise provls.later on but still way down the line and more so concerned with the strain on that small of an engine with the turbocharged ecoboost system, the turbocharger is gonna go before the engine and turbochargers was never made to be a common place car part that every car would have most people don't know how to properly maintain them or get the most miles out of them
I have heard some bad things about those Eco boost engines to be fair, but mustangs have arguably the best looking interior out of the three American muscle cars, and you can get a bigger screen with a premium package

2017 Focus RS: 3434lbs
2023 Mustang EB Fastback Manual 3,491lbs...
RS has plenty of other selling points, but smaller != lighter

Don’t get a base model then complain about it buddy
Hmmm...my 2016, which I ordered from Ford, has 114,000 miles. No issues. Iove my MBRP street exhaust, gives it a great exhaust note. Still love it 8 years later...if I want more horsepower, it's easy to get more. The Ford Performance tune gives you 20 more horsepower and changes the character of the engine (pulls all the way to redline).
Just take good care of it and don’t push it to far it was never meant to a over the top road tearing kind of car it was built to take to wherever u need to go and look nice at the same time
I'm liking my Ecoboost. Don't love the name but it does the job.
while the 4 cylinder thing can be an issue, i do like quieter cars
i bought a 2016 eco boost just two days ago, i go pick it up on august 10th
Great minds think alike and it’s the perfect daily for “a” mustang bc it’s fast
Shouldve been an entirely different body to compete with 4 cylinder sports cars. Calling it a mustang is the only zonk in my book
If you just want a cool daily I would say go for it. But if you are planning to mod it or pretend it's something it's not then forget it
I loooove my 2020 Ecoboost convertible. It’s quiet, so I can hear the music from the wonderful sound system. I don’t race, so the “bragging rights” of high horsepower are silly to me. Yet it has plenty of power on tap for those rare moments where it’s needed. And the interior is fine, sporty yet plenty comfortable.
1 you can upgrade it and keep up with stock GTS and get turbo noise, 2, lies my homie had a good exhaust on it it sounds deep and good, 3 the gt has the same interior
Ive heard these are pretty reliable motors. I work with a guy who has one and he’s had his for years now with no issues.
I absolutely love that car when I rented it and when I can afford to buy one I will
Your first is BS because any research online shows there are TONS of ecoboost over 100k mikes with no faults. (like the one I own
Second reason is wrong because there are 100% exhausts that sound good they just don't make it sound like a roaring V8. The reviewers that shit on the sound are the same ones who complement other 4 cylinder cars exhaust because that's the motor you expect to be in the chassis. Perfect example is the brz. Almost never hear a u negativity about the 4 cylinder exaustbut if that SAME sound came out of a mustang people would hate because its not what they're use to hearing.
Third reason is also super wrong because you chose the base interior. I'm not telling you to not buy ANY f150 because the interior is shit when I reviewed an XL instead of a limited
I've never seen you before but this review is a back to back to back bad takes. I mean the only reasonable one is the exhaust but even that I totally disagree with and the only reason I'm not as worried about that is because that's such an opinionated topic 2 people are almost never going to agree.
lol get the premium trim with full leather and a bigger screen. It fixes that issue
Would that car be good for a gay male like me?
2024 is a huge upgrade over the previous gen
It’s a muscle car with no V8 reason enough and don’t give me the “what if they can’t afford the V8” then don’t buy a muscle car yet
Bros talking abt the screen being small and bad but you can still buy the premium with ecoboost 😭
Add a few more horsepower to the 4 cylinder eco boost and it’s going to blow up. It’s at its limit stock. Tons of the ford focus RS with the same engine and a different tune which makes 350 hp had problems.
Shoot, I'm pushing 300hp on my 1.6l Ecoboost.
That interior is a Base interior with the poverty screen and amenities. 2018+ are pretty nice for a 4cyl pony car today.
I also push 75 hp per cylinder, but I have 8
Me too.
My 2016 v8 has the same interior so that’s not an argument.
The small screen is weight reduction, cloth seats are better and lighter than leather, and Ecoboosts are great mothers and is the best sounding 4cyl imo..
Well, when you upgrade by adding Rouche cold air intake, Precision Turbo, upgrade exhaust and you’ll have a very exciting machine that produces 400HP, turns heads and makes you a real show stopper!
😎🌴
Yes but those mods and the base price you're paying well over the 5.0 which has a v8 and almost 100 more hp then you'd get even with those mods at base
@@0326Vetnot true at all. Check prices
You can actually get 450hp from a CAI, downpipe, exhaust, and a tune. All those mods together are like 2.5k. Throw on a turbo bolt on, 3k and you're making well over 500hp. It's been proven all over youtube. So yea I agree with you, you can mod these things cheap. Buy a car for 30k mod for 5k, 35k you're making well over gt
Only one reason…..No coyote
Thank for the demo and info 👍🏼✌🏼🏴🇬🇧
Yeah these things are notorious for engine failure before 100k miles.
I agree you should avoid the ecoboost instead of the extra 6k for a v8, but the interior issue isn’t an ecoboost problem, that’s a base model, base model gts have the same interior
Blown head gasket at 83k miles on my 2017 ecoboost. Purchased brand new and got the run around from Ford with the repairs.
Another reason is a 2004 to 2008 pontiac grandprix could whoop your ass in a race
You can get a ecoboost premium car that has leather / heated and cooled seats and the big sync3 screen lol
2.3 has no issue making 310hp… the engines in vehicles much heavier.
Your only valid point was reason #2.
Hp / litre or cylinder doesnt mean much in forced induction
I have a full exhaust and down pipe and I can promise you it isn't quite and it doesn't sound bad at all and have had multiple people tell me how good it sounds. Soooooo
Im not even a mustang fan, but the coyote is a great powerful motor. No reason to NOT get the 5.0 if youre in this market.
There’s actually a really good reason to not get the coyote. That reason is the cost of the car and insurance. It’s one thing to get the car it’s another thing to insure it. Most people looking at these are very young including me. I’m an 18 year old male and with just about every insurance I’ve gone to it’s between 400-800 per month. That’s more than most car payments it’s honestly not worth it,and the highest I’ve seen so far on an ecoboost is 200 a month. Don’t get me wrong that’s still expensive but it’s a lot better than paying for the price of a V8. I also don’t need all of that power there’s no need to drive your cars super hard because in the long run you are damaging them. Yes I understand that’s the point of a mustang to abuse it but a lot of people don’t see that they don’t have the money for repairs. That’s why I believe the ecoboost is a great option because it’s not painfully slow and you can still do everything a 5.0 does just not as quickly.
@znet7545 ur right to an extent. In ur situation u should not own one. Insurance at ur age is high no matter what. I was paying 200+ for a hyundai sonata. As you keep Insurance, good record, and age up, it significantly drops. My heavily built camaro is only 75 a month full coverage. Only drive what u can afford, and only drive to your own limits. Learn slowly and responsibly. 18 is too young for more than 300 wheel horse tops.
Maybe not get a v8 because someone doesn't want one? When I got my first wco I bought just to see how much power I could get. Then I got a gt. And now I have another eco because I love the car. Easy to mod and fun to throw around. Not everyone cares about a v8.
@@Lucidilluminate well MOST people who want a muscle car want the v8. But it's not really about a v8 in general, it's just that the coyote is an exceptional NA V8. Better motor than the eco. If I was I'm the market for a mustang I'd go that route. With my s4 I chose the v6 supercharged over the v8, so ya it's not always about a v8.
@@Hopelessthugg I mean I have both. Yea sure the coyote is better. I like the eco more tho. More fun to mod and test limits on. It comes down to personal preference or situation. I've always hated when people say if it's not a v8 it's not a muscle car, or that's not a mustang because it's an eco. I wish people would just respect other people's builds even if it's not their thing or what they like. These ecos make more hp than some of the dated v8 mustangs. Shouldn't those people be saying those aren't real mustangs? Or are they literally just mad about 8 cylinders versus 4? It's so confusing
You bought an old car. The new ones are really nice inside
The gas mileage makes up for all of these non valid reasons
Had my ‘14 V6 since 2019 🐎
Why you should avoid:
The name tells you everything
The real reasons not to like it are the weight. It's a heavy car. But honestly with soo many cars being marked up at least you can get this for a decent price so quit bitching
1 reason to but ecoboost mustang : its so cheap
So the reasons why I should get it... I already have a gas guzzler I want something fun still and I needed to be economical so thank you
Most bs I’ve heard in a single video about a car 😭
You stated the most retarted reason at first the gr Corolla is a THREE CYLINDER are you following me? That can withstand 100hp per cylinder and comes with a drift mode so it can redline just fine. Idk why you'd think a mf 4 cylinder is gonna struggle with 310hp in 2024 come on man..
Ecoboost Premium here...interior/ Car are Great! 😊 Crying 😂
The only thing you got right is the exhaust sound is truly garbage so just keep it quiet. The motor isint especially unreliable and the interior isint bad yours is just clapped out
The only valid one is the sound.
The v4 engine with turbos is about as reliable as the good ol v8. Just take care of the d*m thing and evrything will be fine.
As for the interior, is the same interior than the v8 mustang. Maybe some differences in the fabric base on the trim but its the same thing.
Bro that's the base, get the premium. I agree with sound but good power for price.
the ecoboost is NOT a 4 cylinder😭
I had a ecooboost then got a 5.0 man let me tell you eco boost suck ass they feel to cheap and slow for a mustang 5.0 is definitely a different beast man avoid a eco boost at all times
He's trollin
The 2024 model has bigger screens, better interior while being 30k, and it is perfect for mods
Well. To be fair that interior comes on the GT aswell. You can get the premium interior in the ecoboost. But at that point you’re paying base 5.0 price lol
Maybe someone who is paying for premium eco wants it for the premium features. So why settle for a base 5.0 with not features other than the 5.0. Not everyone cares about a 5.0. Not everyone cares about a v8. Real car people will respect people's choices and not talk down on them because they don't have a 5.0. And before you say I don't have one. I have a 2020 GT CS and a 22 eco
Of course, it's like having high blood pressure.
Reason 4: Resale absolutely plummets, especially compared to a 5.0.
Not true. I have sold one of my past ecos. 35k new as a 2016, I sold it for 28k in 2021 with 60k miles to a dealer.
i would never buy one but man they are a ton of fun to drive
3 reasons not to have baby hands 💀
NA 3.6s usually hit 300 or close to 300 the fact its turbocharged with only 300 says allot
It's 1.3 liters less... with a small turbo. These engines can put put upwards of 800hp if you do it right. They can push 500hp very easily with a few mods and a good tune.
The gauge clusters aren’t interesting? Yeah I’m not getting a mustang that was a deal breaker for me
u get what u pay for its an ecoboost after all
"It's going to run into some issues."
I love declarative statements with no examples
How an engine runs is it bassicly beats the piss out of itself to move you forward, the more load on the cylinders the harder it beats itself meaning more wear and tear, however I would be far less worried about the pressure the cylinders is taking which will caise provls.later on but still way down the line and more so concerned with the strain on that small of an engine with the turbocharged ecoboost system, the turbocharger is gonna go before the engine and turbochargers was never made to be a common place car part that every car would have most people don't know how to properly maintain them or get the most miles out of them
Ecoboom.... Just avoid anything that has an ecoboost engine....
I have a 21 convertible. I wanted a drop top, this is all we have or the Germans. I don't have German drop top money.
I have heard some bad things about those Eco boost engines to be fair, but mustangs have arguably the best looking interior out of the three American muscle cars, and you can get a bigger screen with a premium package
I’m biased but I think the challenger got it
@@lordbluebaron2270eh. Challenger v6 is like 10k more on average. Not worth. The R/T is almost 15-20k more in average. It’s why I went eco. I’ll trade for a GT stang later.
U can make them sound good just need gt500 exhaust 😁
At least putting fake carbon fiber stickers everywhere makes the car weigh less. Exactly what Lotus founder Colin Chapman meant by "Simplify, then add lightness" 😂
