+1 I really did like my 15' auto premium PP EB but i hated the sound of the exhaust and it was bouncy do to the PP suspension. I wanted to keep it and thought about modding it but gave up on the idea. I got my GT the end of August when Ford had 0% financing for 72 months and i got X-plan pricing, $1K cash back and the dealer gave me a $1K private offer. I don't race my car either but a little bit of spirited driving and listening to the sweet sound of the Corsa exhaust is music to my ears.

At first i thought you went and bought a Camaro by saying you were going to the dark side :D

Well done. The lesson here is start out with a V8 if you crave any bit of performance

Apparently you've never looked at the EB Fast List. There are a couple guys in there who would probably like to take your lunch money.

My dealer doesn't even stock ecoboost Mustangs unless Ford incentivizes him.

They must not like money because EB Mustangs have been selling like hot cakes.

It's V8 or bust for me. My 4 cylinder is an eco box.

Not by me. When was the last time you saw a post of a person trading in his GT for an Ecoboost?
What does that have to do with sales numbers? Dealers also make money ripping people off on trade-ins

All I am saying is that Ecoboost Mustangs are not popular in my area, so the dealers rarely stock them. Different area have different buying preferences. One of my other cars is an Ecoboost, so I have nothing against them, I just like V8 engines and so do Mustang buyers in my area.

Getting a Camaro is going to the dark side. Getting a 5.0 is stepping into the light. :)

Congrats!
This right here - while I loved my Ecoboost SHO, a Mustang should have 2 things - 8 cylinders and 3 pedals :love:
