Scott M Don’t let those V8 elitists get to your head, the Ecoboost Stang is one the best value sport cars out there. A 10 speed with a tune is nothing to mess with.
I have a 2017 6 speed manual mustang ecoboost and im already looking forward to getting a new one in couple of years, thinking v8 but i do love the way the ecoboost drives so that be hard choice when time comes, be like a kid in a candy store lol, v8 be good for sound but petrol is expensive in the uk its £1.20 a litre so possibly just get the new ecoboost with active exhaust, got to be grabber lime, or twister orange or magnetic colour 😅👍👍
13:50 This is actually kind of neat. I've not seen any other big car reviewers ever mention this about the Mustang. I often forget Ford has some neat stuff sometimes.
Put some 3M door edge tape along the entire door. I do that for all my cars including my new 20 mustang eco prem. The base mustang does not have the safety features you talked about. They come in a seperate package for $1000. I got it on mine. No brainer.
I have a 2017 Challenger and a 2015 Mustang Eco convertible. The Mustang handles much better than the Challenger. The Challenger is meant to be a muscle car not a sports car where as the Mustang is meant to be a sports car.
Your videos are really enjoyable man, you should definitely keep at the reviews. Are you considering adding any modifications to the Cayman? I personally don't like an obscene amount of exterior mods on Caymans, but I do like the gt3 grill vent some people choose to add onto it, and I also think DRLs and LED taillights can transform the look of the car. Obviously this would be quite costly but I think it would make the car awesome. Keep up the content, would love to see vids of you murdering out that Cayman lol
+Juan Diaz thanks! Right now I’m trying to save as much money as I can to travel so I’m holding off on expensive modifications and just focusing on keeping it running well.
Good video dude! where are you from? Its cold and snow here in upstate NY as well blah! i like the mustangs when I was younger I worked at ford and we had a couple of Roush Mustangs and man they are awesome! Great video though keep it up!
Hi Mechonomist. Really enjoyed your review on the Ecoboost!! When you were driving it up there in Michigan, did you have dedicated winter tires (example Michelin X Ice 3's) on it? If so, how did you find driving it in winter conditions? Looked pretty slushy there at the time of this review. I live just outside Winnipeg, Manitoba and winters here can get pretty bad. I would like to hear from you or anyone else on here if they drive their Mustang during the winter months. I don't want to go by what a dealership rep tells me.Thanks!
Thanks! This one just had the factory all-season tires. It handles slush and snow pretty well but I would recommend dedicated snow tires for Winnipeg if you can afford them.
Bruno gomes sentone Yeah your right. Whats new here is the words "Mustang" stitched into the back rests of the seats with added cushion, steering wheel is smaller with much smoother leather and the volume and menu control keys have switched sides.
Is it safe to drive this car in winters with winter tires as I have heard a lot of negative reviews about RWD car drive in winters. Requesting for some guidance & info. I live in Toronto.
Typically RWD is not ideal in winters however this vehicle is equipped with traction control and a snow mode drive option. Probably one of the best RWD vehicles on the market if you live somewhere with snowy weather.
Totally confused- I thought the 18s had the digital gauge readout. Also, at least on the 17s the large touch screen is only on premium models, but that includes leather seats- this one has cloth?!
chadleyftl the 18s come digital gauge readout with a different package it doesn’t come standard and also the 8 inch comes standard now the 18s kept the same speedo as the 2017 but has some upgrades to it
Edgar Torres no the radio is an upgrade. The ecoboost can have extra gauges but standard is normal gauges still has line lock and launch control track apps etc but the radio is still sync shaker but not touch screen also you can change the center skin on the dash. It has the controllable steering wheel
The digital dash screen is an upgrade. Standard is the two binnacles for tachometer and speedometer, with small digital screen in between. The screen gives you all kinds of information, and some digital gauges (air inlet temp, oil temp, boost gauge).
265308 too expensive?? You can get the the base Camaro manual v6 with 1le package for like 32k msrp, probably less with trade in and rebates. That’s not bad at all
Handling would have been a step up if you'd gotten the magnetic dampening suspension. Being able to find your car is the same cognitive skills that settlers used to find their covered wagon on the plains. In other words, don't give the shadow government beast system all the information just because it's blingy and convenient.
silviano norma Its a great car, i had mine for 3 years and now my lease is up i got this car. The v6 is quick but this ihas considerably more punch from low speeds, i just miss the sound lol
Your Pal This one with an unleashed tune for only $400 puts it at just about the same speed. 480 torque & 350 HP while 300lbs lighter and much better on gas. U justsacrifice sound. Both slower than an SS tho so who cares.
@@colorsafebleach5381 I got a genesis coupe with custom exhaust and cold air intake. The 4-cylinder mustang is an awesome sports car for someone on budget, wants good gas mileage and still want a car with plenty of performance.
Car is a piece of crap. I’ve had it for 3 years , coils and spark plugs went bad, misfires, transmission fail, and a few more problems .don’t waste your money. Better off getting a GT or a different brand of car
This is a muscle car. The term muscle car comes from high end torque or the aggressive stance, and exterior muscle look to it with a rear wheel drive engine and tranny.
Got this car a week ago, its amazing.
How do you turn up the boost on it?
Is it 4 ssater
Does it have apple car play?
@@trollord2775 Premium gets Apple Car play and Android auto
How much did you pay ?
I love my Ecoboost. It may not be the fastest car on the road but it sure does beat my Chevy Cruze and that's all that matters.
Scott M Don’t let those V8 elitists get to your head, the Ecoboost Stang is one the best value sport cars out there. A 10 speed with a tune is nothing to mess with.

Work for it man,wishing will get you nothing. Gud luck.
Funny how so many people know so much about Mustangs. Just like my family........ They are all freaking doctors LOL
6 years late, lol. Just got one today as my first car ever, and i love it.
13:50 This is actually kind of neat. I've not seen any other big car reviewers ever mention this about the Mustang. I often forget Ford has some neat stuff sometimes.
So your girlfriend already dinged at least 1 car already since there is missing paint on the “deadly” door edge.

I should have watched this couple of years before, i never thought that’s a sunglasses holder, always throw mine on passenger seats 😂

Thanks for demoing the back seat. All other reviews I've read have said it's terrible but looks fine for what it is
I am a long time Mustang fan and owner and this is a Mustang
that’s a weed holder folk 😂
mustang is such a stunning car... wish to be able to afford one one day... how they say, hope is the last to die :D
I LOVE my Mustang😍
Newer mustangs can be driven in winter no big deal. I had a 2015 and that car did amazing in winter

Great review, very easy communication.
Thank you for finding details like the door corner lol
I think I will buy one now it’s a good deal
I thought it was only me on the door dings. Thank you
Not hard to avoid door dings if you park well.
I like the way you think amd I quote. If you have a family of 4, the mustang is perfect
505 enthusiast The backseats aren't great to be honest for anyone taller than 5'7
glad im asian 5'5 ahahha
505 enthusiast - I grew up in GM F Body two door cars and I'm sure thousands of others did too. People don't really need minivans or SUV's.

+Packed Review thank you! I live in Houston but I’m originally from Ann Arbor Michigan.
how will it perform in colorado snow? would i be fine with a decent set of winter tires?
I watched you get into the back seat and still can’t believer my eyes...you fit and looked comfortable in the back seat. 😮
he said he is pretty short
hey bro ik i'm super late. but does it handle better than a charger as well ? ik u said camaro and challengers, but how ab a charger ?
The biggest upgrades are the rims that this car don't have

are these the stock all seasons tires? work well on snow surprisingly
How has the car held up so far? Is the paint still looking good? Any ford defects? I'm thinking of getting a 2018.
Thanks. I was getting a little nervous dealing with Ford. I've just always wanted a mustang.
My 2016 EcoBoost has the glasses compartment, as well as the 2015 model.
Bruno gomes sentone my 2018 does
MCKOOKIE cool, my point is, the glass compartment isn't something "new" for the new line
Bruno gomes sentone Yeah your right. Whats new here is the words "Mustang" stitched into the back rests of the seats with added cushion, steering wheel is smaller with much smoother leather and the volume and menu control keys have switched sides.
Did that back up camera come on the screen when you were driving forward ? --- go to 2:13--- Or were you going backward ?
Very nice, fairly comprehensive review.
does it have apple car play
did you have winter tires in this video ?

Hows it drive in snow!?
Nigga. Any new car is good. This is not a review, it is an option.
THAT ECOBOOST SOUNDS HILARIOUS 😂
Are you in MI??
Got the ecoboost. It's a riot.
jo23bulls gimme. I'm poor with a Accord
So uh... wanna let me take it for a spin?
jo23bulls Unleashed tune $450, +129 torque and 40 hp im tempted.
the gear hunting will lessen as you drive the car and the ECU adjusts.
Can’t decide 2017-2018 that ten speed tho
Does this have a active valve exhaust ?
hussain murtaza yeah it’s a 895 dollar option, totally worth it in my opinion.
I have a 2017 and it's a great car .
I don't need big government know we're I am at
The 2016 had sync connect as does the 2018.
The 2016 had the glasses holder.
so it DOES have navigation with an iphone
As soon as I saw the UoM logo in the background I stopped watching... Jk, thanks for a great review! O-H!!!
very nice Video

atleast he didn’t call it a v6
murad karatepe because it’s not
7:22 since its a what?

The most recent camaro v6 is actually awesome, drive one.

Yeah but there too fucking expensive man fuck that.

This car costs $150,000 in INDIA, don't know why
matt joseph taxes. 56k here in Philippines for an ecoboost premium.
did you say ~coop-ey~
Is it premium model ?
Yes
Premiums come with leather. So I doubt if it’s cloth like he said?
this cabel on backview mirror looks "WTF" ?
wow, your girlfriend changed car in less than one year :-O
