Just wondering how many regular non vendor/tuner members purchased an ecoboost.
Brand new member here. Picked up my EB last week. Race red 6mt with performance package.
I'm also interested in hearing who will order an Ecoboost, especially out of people who already own a V8 Mustang. I was thinking that it would be pretty cool as a second fun car, that's a bit more fuel efficient and "different", to own an Ecoboost in addition to a 5.0 or some other GT variation.
Kind of unrelated but I'm also interested in seeing if the availability of a 4 cylinder, Turbo Mustang, will cause any of the import crowd to take a look at Mustangs instead of cars with similar numbers, like the WRX/STI, EVO, Z cars, etc.
I'm not sure it will take from the evo/sti crowd but I imagine the BRZ/FRS guys will be interested in it.
Import guys have no higher power RWD platforms. I think the mustang will draw a few more of those guys than people expect.
Yeah this is kind of what I was thinking. They can still take satisfaction in modding a solid car with a smaller engine + forced induction, and have to joy of rear wheel drive + all of the massive aftermarket support available to Mustangs. Obviously some of the more diehard import fans won't be swayed but I think it's a good crossover platform that will open up Mustangs to a new demographic of tuners and enthusiasts.
