Great review as always Drew! I look forward to this review every year. Your review of this in 2016 convinced me this was the right choice and I got an EB Mustang after watching your work. 3 years later it's still going!

Awesome to hear! Mustang truly is an amazing car!
Excellent review. I factory ordered through the dealership my 2019 Mustang EcoBoost Premium with the Pony Package the first day Ford accepted orders for the 2019. Ordered in July 2018, built in Sep 2018, delivered Oct 2018. I get many say would rather own the GT. I have owned over 10 Mustangs from the V8 271hp High Performance 1st Generation to Concourse Show Mustangs. All great as the Ford Mustang gives you options for your particular needs. My 2019 Mustang EcoBoost is a fantastic daily driver that many Mustang enthusiast should consider.

Grant Frey as someone who almost went that route just curious did the dealer discount much? I was looking last year to build an Ecoboost with all options and Pony Pack for my wife as no dealers really carry high optioned ecoboost. We owned a 2016 Pony Package and ended up trading it in on a fully loaded GTI.

My first Mustang is a V-6. At times I wish that I ponied up and went with the GT. However, the newer model GT's have a plastic oil pan and I'm skeptical of its durability. I'm hearing every time you change the oil you have to change the plastic drain plug as well.

@@Jacobk66 Great points. I ordered my 2019 the first day Ford accepted orders in Jul 2018. As you can imagine dealers are not looking to give deals off the msrp so early in the model year. Very true finding a fully optioned EcoBoost is nearly impossible. I was able to get various Ford and dealership discounts near delivery date. I got exactly what I wannted at a price i was satisfied with. Very happy!

@ImmortalHitman In my opinion, I think buying the package(s) is the way to go. A black accent package for a Mustang costs about $800 as an option. For that you get a black roof, a black spoiler, black 5.0 emblems, a black pony and GT emblem, and black wheels. To just buy those blacks wheels from Ford would cost you $2,000 a piece. To have a body shop paint your roof would cost close to $1,000. And painted spoilers go for roughly $400.
Ford dealer near me has a 2019 EcoBoost coupe automatic with performance pack in black and they have it marked down right now to $26k. Really thinking about it...would be my first new car.

The challenger is big, bulky and the exterior design is outdated. This has more features and looks better. The camaro has a nicer interior, but I don't like the visibility, or the fact that the turbo (I want to tune) has less power than the V6 or ecoboost.

Took a careful look at the EcoSport Mustang last spring. Overall, I was impressed. It's a viable alternative to much more expensive European and Asian rivals. For the kind of recreational driving I do (mountainous curvy roads) the turbo 4 was more than adequate and the GT was simply overkill. For those condemned to live in flyover country with long, long straight roads it might be a different story.
Ford mustang is amazing
My 2018 Mustang EcoBoost Premium has the smooth leather for the steering wheel... I guess they changed it in 2019? 🤷♂️

Know it’s been a while since you made this video, but I just found it today. I have a ’19 Mustang convertible premium package. Traded my Volvo S60 in for the Mustang after my son left for college. Surprisingly, my Mustang has more features than my Volvo did. It’s also more comfortable even though it’s low to the ground. Only complaint I have, is the Volvo had the Bowers and Wilkes sound system, which had a much richer sound. Once I added a subwoofer (conservative size) with an amp, the sound was improved. Only problem Ford needs to address. Otherwise, it’s a work of art and ingenuity. Thanks for the informative video!
The EcoBoost now has an optional quad tipped active exhaust also. Thanks for the great review.

Great review. I have watched every review available and this is the most comprehensive. You didn’t mention the upgrade sound system - a 1000 watt 12 speaker Bang & Olufsen or the active exhaust. Although the 10 speed automatic is a bit quicker and an upgrade, good luck finding the 6 speed manual. I’m almost at 5 months waiting for my factory order EcoBoost Premium Convertible manual transmission with active exhaust, B&O sound and a few other bells & whistles. It’s due in about 9 days. I appreciate your video. Keep up the great work.

My brother has a 2016 ecoboost premium. Great, fun car to drive. Wouldn’t consider it a “muscle car” in the traditional sense, but it is still impressively fast, you expect power from a V8 or even a properly tuned V6, but to wrench that much power from a 2.3 liter engine is impressive. Sure, the mustang purists might shun the ecoboost, but it and the “rental car” V6 mustang really help fund the bigger and badder mustangs, and I anticipate we will see more variety in the high end Mustang market as the ecoboost in particular gets better and better with technology. As a car guy myself, the ecoboost premium is NOT off the shortlist. If you want a daily driven sports car, it should not be discounted.

Why didn't ford put the turbo 6 out of the Aussie ford falcon xr6 turbo it shits all over the 4 cylinder they put in these things
I drove a convertible yesterday for over 100 miles around Hawaii Island (the big one). Handles great and accelleration is real good for a 4-banger. Lots of tech gadgets. Never had time to learn them all. The car is stunningly beautiful. Fit & finish is horrible. Rear quarter windown didn’t close shut. Feels cheap throughout, too much cheap plastic outside. Feels like a car that won’t look/feel great 5 years/100,000 miles later. Definitely wouldn’t use as a daily driver if I wanted it to last me more than 5 years and still look good and feels strong mechanically.
You forgot to mention the premium Plus Package
It's not a steal for the ecoboost performance pack. When you consider all they the for the ecoboost performance pack is just slap on gt suspension parts.

Jake Smith based on a few youtube vids you’ve watch? The bad thing about that, for any car’s 0-60 youre curious about, is that you dont know how the uploader got those numbers... meaning, was it hot? Are they at a higher altitude? Are they running at a slight incline? How many passengers are in the car? What kind of fuel did they pump? Like most 0-60s test reviews, for any car, they use the one with the best package performance wise (tires, gear ratio, use of launches...)... Rated numbers and real world numbers are different. If a car is rated at 4 seconds, chances are that most of the times theyll be hitting 60mph in 4.2-4.5 most of the times depending on temperature, humidity, tire condition, road condition, how warm tires are... so many factors....it will only hit 4 sec under perfect everything. There are people with stock ‘15-17 EB mustangs hitting 60 in 5.4-5.7secs, whereas others are in the 6 sec... There are some with ‘18 -19 EBs running 5.2-5.6 sec... same with the discontinued v6... Ecoboost engines run better on higher octane (93). Some people are cheap and pump regular, or live in an area that at most gets 91. If you google , youll find that they have their rated numbers and next to it will say “on 93 octane”...

Drive normal but dont drive it like you stole it lol specially if you have the manual, as auto wont let you redline it unless you enable manual mode. It sucks you dont get 93 octane, I live in Fl so I do, ive pumped 93 since I bought my ‘16 two years ago and man she pulls hard. Ive kept her stock.. 91 octane will limit you a bit performance wise but read about octane boosters (after your break in period)... join forums ...mustang6g.. Also keep an eye on your IAT under gauges.. some ppl get intercoolers to keep her cool during summer days. Also, if you drive manual dont shift past 6k rpms keep it around 5500 - 5800 rpms... look at dyno charts to see why. Enjoy your car!
