Its ridiculous to suggest people dislike a new model because they own the current model. I liked the S197 look but loved the 15 look when the photos were first released. Could have cancelled my 17 order but when saw photos of the 18 I decided to keep the 17. Maybe the 18 will look better in the flesh. I will say the front end profile looks better from the side on the 18 but all other angles the 15 looks better.A lot of the negativity towards the front end is from current owners which is understandable, just like the comments made by S197 owners when the 15 was revealed.
Is it me?There is a young fellah on here that loves his Ecoboost Mustang. It cost less to insure, get better mpg and costs less to begin with.
you're the only one leftIs it me?
It does feel like that...you're the only one left
I can probably count on one hand the number of EB owners I know through this forum & from instagram (I'm another one not on facebook).It does feel like that...
I asked Andy for the figures again... still waiting. :lol:I can probably count on one hand the number of EB owners I know through this forum & from instagram (I'm another one not on facebook).
I think everyone in the car world including Ford was surprised the the brits took to the V8 the way we did! Shocking because the EB makes a lot more sense as a regularly driven car...I certainly drive the GT less than I did the EB. 19k miles in 18 months in the EB. Only 4k miles in the GT so far in the 6 months I've had it...
I only think Ford was surprised. A Mustang for most people is not going to be a regular driven car (more likely to be a second car) and if you're going for the Mustang its unique selling point is the V8I think everyone in the car world including Ford was surprised the the brits took to the V8 the way we did!

Partly agree. For me the Ecoboost was finally my chance to justify buying my dream car, and have it as my only car. The selling point for me was the practicability & affordability and the fact that it was a Mustang. My craving for a V8 only came once I spent some time with other owners in the UK...but agree - most buyers here will have wanted the V8.I only think Ford was surprised.

Same here. Even with the EB engine, it's not the most practical car. The P-zeros didn't work in December for a start and I just couldn't bring myself to stick ÂŁ20k+ miles PA on my new P&J, or take it into horrible neighborhoods and dodgy parking spaces, especially this time of year with the gritty roads.The plan was that it would be my only car, rather than a weekend/occasional use type deal...but I managed to hang on to my Fiesta in the end
