I have just purchased one over the V8. Why ? Not because of cost , I can afford both. Not boasting here but I have heard so many times you only buy one because you can’t afford the GT. I test drove every version and in my opinion the ecoboost was better for everyday driving fun. The v8 suffers from being to heavy in the front end and not responsive enough at low speed. The Turbo has so much power 0-60 and 30-60. It just better. Let’s face it in the UK there are so many cameras you cant speed. I did tune mine and I would give any V8 a run for its money, especially on winding roads. Hell even stock it’s only 1sec behind the V8. The V8 is for those who want to go on the drag or race track on weekends. The only thing you sacrifice is the V8 music. If your that worried play it on your stereo. My last comment is who cares JUST LOOK AT IT, it don’t even have to move😍
I got the Ecoboost last month, I love it. The speed is enough for me and it's great to drive but I bought it for the looks and it is super to cruise in.
I recently bought a 2018 ecoboost base model, with 101A package and wheel and stripe package in ruby red. It’s got plenty of power, killer looks, comfortable as a daily driver, and I’m averaging 28 mpg in the two months I’ve owned it - including some spirited driving after the manufacturer’s recommended break in period.
I've just bought the 2.3l 310BHP, can't wait to pick it up at the weekend! I drove a Ranger for a year and hated to watch the fuel gage drop so fast. I plan to drive the mustang everyday :)
I have the ECOBOOST and I love it. Great video, it’s nice to see such a vivacious personality doing a review, keep up the good work.
Nice video! Just ordered my 2.3 Ecoboost Mustang in that same deep impact blue color. Can't wait to get my hands on it!
Thanks,i enjoyed watching this video. it answered everything i wanted to know.

I love your videos!! i smile when i see that u uploaded a video!
Everyone wants the V8, who wouldn't? But if you are looking for a daily driver, reasonable consumption levels, and still enjoy around 300bhp - the ecoboost is a great option. I've owned both V8 and I4 cars before and I can honestly say the V8 is AWESOME for the weekend - big, loud, heavy and involving. But when Monday morning comes and you just want to get to work, then the I4 is perfect for everyday. The fact that the I4 has 300+bhp makes it all the more better (not a total sissy car put in other terms). Also perfect for European petrol prices and roads (the V8 will feel too big and heavy) - I love the fact that Marek always focused on "European" roads, prices and style in the context of an American made car. Great review - keep them coming! By the way, is the road you are on "Gierkówka" :) ? Those Strabag signs are everywhere!
+Timmykay No, this is road number 7 from Warsaw to Gdańsk. And there is a lot of construction work on it at the moment. Gierkówka is in the opposite direction ;)
I live in the US and i have the v6 with 300 hp and I am happy with around city 22.6 mph. A long drive 400 miles I got about 30mph. I was pleasantly surprised..
Hey Marek! Love your videos! Keep it up!
I would go with 2.3. Also the new Mustang 2016-3017 has Sync 3 which is Apple CarPlay compatible...
funny ending :-)
excellent car!!!..and review!
Marek is a great reviewer. Needs to come to to the US and open up the GT350R on our backroads.
U better think of buying one as u look really happy wit it ;)
Good review . Dzinki
Very Good! Congratulation for review!
I like this fellas reviews. Great looking car, very nice in that colour. It would have to be the V8 though.
This car is awesome!
Damn this car really looks great, shame i cant buy this in norway because of all the taxes.
Finally finally u like car !!
While German Autobahn is one of the last places where you can drive as fast as you want, V8 engines like in the new Mustang are one of the last V8's without turbo charge! - just do it ;-)
+J Koch (JFK) Some sections are unrestricted, but I know they are often too crowded to go flat out.
Great video. I wish Ford would put the 2.7L ecoboost V6 325 hp & 375 lb/ft torque. In the F150 the 2.7eb is faster than the 5.0 & 3.5eb so it might eat the V8 sales.
+Kamaka Chang No it's not idiot
DJ JONES Yes it is dummy.
Kamaka Chang No it's not you fucking moron i own a 2.7 ecoboost truck
Hi i just bought the ecoboost after driving both i just don't think its worth paying allot more for the 5.0l as its not a big difference between the 2.
Valentin Djoranov i love ecoboost makes me feel good knowing i have a v6 with more sound
First time watch Marek and enjoyed it. The real deal or the sensible option? Dr Jekyll or Mr Hyde? I guess it depends upon which persona you are in as both easy to justify on different grounds... But one thing is for sure, I want one!
Hello Marek, may I have your opinion about the 2018 version of Mustang Ecoboost?
Haven't seen it. Unlikely I will any time soon, as Ford Poland seems to be pissed off at me for criticising their new Fiesta :)
Long bonnet? You haven't tried a Challenger.
😎
What is the price of 2,3l in Poland?
+Pedja Pesic It starts at 157k pln, which is roughly 36.9k euro.
Misspelled cylinder in the description.
Thanks. You're the first one to notice in 4 years :)
if it only be 13 liters with a V8... you can expect easily 16L/100km
Ground speed is a tribute to the P-51 Mustang fighter plane.
P51
@@subterfusion4005 thanks. I'll change it.
A beautiful and deadly aircraft. The English derived Merlin (Packard built under license in the US) engine made it a killer. 2 engineers died from the strain of converting the Merlin to mass US production.
The high trim level V8 is far too expensive for a Ford, $48k versus $24 for the base V6 car and you have to look hard to tell the difference. I got the top trim ecoboost and it's plenty fast enough. Put the car in sport mode and the turbo spools like no other. If it's raw speed you're after there are already loads of aftermarket kits you can get that are still cheaper than the V8, one guy is getting 500HP on the ground with his kit. The V8 gets 16MPG and I'm averaging 22 MPG with my lead foot and I don't do much highway driving.
+Däne Fjordlùnd they don't get a v6
I meant 2016-2017
I have had both I initially bought the ecoboost and was somewhat disappointed there was no theatre so naturally I opted for the V8 GT and was the best decision I made and as far as fuel consumption goes I just drove 2650 miles from Alberta Canada to Florida Usa on a road trip and was driving at 85mph most of the way 135kmh and averaged 8.2 liters per 100km which is amazing check out my videos for the road trip 👍😉
Total Focus y u trade smh
That's a mid-size car in the US.
V8 of course. Having a proper V8 is half the point of buying an american muscle car :)
The other half is insurance premiums and speeding tickets.
I like it but doesn't have the sound like the v8
that's because its a 2.3L
i know it is
Greg Crookes then that's why it doesn't sound like a v8 😉
really mr obvious ;)
Greg Crookes they call me a king of cars 😉
Similar performance with much lower fuel bill is hard to argue with, but i definitely wouldn't be having fake V8 sounds played to me via speakers. The intent is understandable but that is monumentally UNcool!
it is not fake, just piped into the cabin
I bet the economist develops more power than the v8. I guess the only redeeming thing in the v8 favour is that it's an unstressed engine that could sit at 130kmh all day. day in day out
+BillyNoMates1974 The Ecoboost makes 312hp - the V8 makes 421hp. That's a quite a jump.
benanderson89 at $4-10K difference between ecoboost and GT (depending on options), the cost for the additional 100+ hp can be quite a jump as well. Both have their good and bad points, just depends on what you are looking for in a Mustang.
Marek Ireland's roads are mostly terrible 😂
Everyone says roads in their country are the worst ;)
Marek Drives it's probably top topic with our comedians 😂
Do a review in 3 yeas old of the car. This is a opinion Not a review. .
I'd like to get the V8, but that price tag is being extremely hated by my wallet.
G'day ....Get yourself a REAL car..Not a toy like this..It's an absolute tragedy you guys never got our Ford.. The mighty Ford Falcon...yes the Falcon...Australia developed the car after the US dropped it after 1970..Sadly Falcon finishes this year (2016)...after 56 years continuous service from 1960..The first all Australian Falcon was the XA in 1972..then about 20 new models since..The 4.0 litre initially SOHC but since 2002 DOHC inline 6 , not poxy V6 , is bulletproof , massive torque curve at genuine daily drive range..Ford Australia developed this engine to cope with just about anything..The single Turbo version is breathtaking performance but driven normally will return average fuel figures around 30 mpg..Great engine..not kidding..Then there's the V8 Falcons....Whoa...another amazing history..As I said ,,TRAGEDY that the rest of the Ford world don't know about our Falcon..If you don't believe me , look and see for yourself..Nice review though..Cheers Rod..
+Rodney McGiveron be car full what you wish for you would be amazed how many skyline r32s you see here in america just wait till the bf falcons hit 25 years old. why so much hate on the stang ?. i would love an f6 typhoon but its really difficulty to import a car in the usa if its not a classic .
v8 all the way...
V8 all the way, of course! If you want a boring and sensible car, buy a BMW with a diesel engine.
