I don't know where the timestamp is but this interview has a good section where she talks about how clueless ford is to what people want with the Mustang etc
Edit: This the part
That is the point you're trying to make, though.
The base model isn't as good as you think it is.
The 4/6 cylinder Mustang/Camaros are lame. A mile behind the V8's in performance. Behind in modability. They sound like shit. The owners are annoying. It's a bad platform to start with.
It's only...
The solution is to keep the wheels pointed straight in first. Get it right and you'll move all 3183 pounds of Civic to 60 in 4.9 seconds
I care very little about 0-60. Especially for magazine numbers for bone stock cars. If it makes you happy the CTR is a tick slower than the PP EB 0-60, hey...
Yes it is. Better gearing, wider summer tires, drag mode with mageneride shocks...
MotorTrend's 2018
This was born out at the test track, as well. At 5.3 seconds to 60 mph and 13.9 seconds in the quarter at 97.2 mph, this is the quickest EcoBoost Mustang we've ever tested and nicely reverses a...
perfect. I knew that's what you were using I just wanted to hear you say it.
they haven't reviewed a 2025 yet, as I said. Their stats that they link to, are from the 2024 review of the optioned out high performance pack car. Check it out for yourself.
Also...to get the full performance of the car that C&D sent (that was faster than any other previous year EcoBoost)
you have to start with the Premium EcoBoost
add the high performance package to get the Brembos, performance rear end, and summer tires and 19
Add the active exhaust
And add the...
It's gone. So you can't get a "good" EcoBoost anymore. The ones all the magazines test. You get basic brakes, all season tires, no performance rear end blah blah
so negating all the things they EB owners brag about being great handling blah blah
No it does not. The 32k non performance version is a sad sack of shit.
imagine if you just put the 5.0 in the ecoboost, it'd be better than the 2.3 with mods. Oh wait they already make that
Good day.
The 2025 isn't even being made yet
so what we we even be comparing it to?
the eco is going to suck even more without it. No PP wheels and summer tires, brembos, 3.55's, paddle shifters, torsen...good luck getting your 0-60's with the base model on all seasons
thank you ford for getting rid of...
They don't? You sure about that?
Where did I get that screenshot of the "2.3l High Performance Package" then? Certainly not from the "build an EcoBoost fastback" on Fords website
Enjoy talking about 0-60's kid...
