I had a 2018 Ecoboost and it was a fantastic car. Everyone hates on it, because it isn't a "real" Mustang, but it was a lot of fun for the money. I have a GT now, and I do still miss it sometimes, mostly at the gas pump.

I appreciate you reviewed the basic model...pretty much all the other reviews on KZread are the high performance version.

@@AskforBryan I agree...but I think I'll be getting the 101A package, primarily for the bigger SYNC screen and the lighter aluminum on the dash to offset so much dark interior...but also with the low gloss 18 inch wheel option.

I rented one of these- I was extremely impressed- It's fun to drive, turbo pulls good, great gas mileage, smooooooooth.. This is a well engineered car.

I currently own a 2019 Ecoboost mustang and I love the car! I previously had a 2019 mustang GT, but the high monthly car payments and high insurance cost and bad gas mileage, that was 3 strikes and it was out! And by the way, YES the hood vents are functional on the 2019 EcoBoost!

I’m a used car person and am just now looking at these 2019 models on used lots. I’m really impressed with the nuts and bolts, a 4 cylinder turbo with 310 horsepower, multiple setup modes, well appointed interior. Im starting to seriously consider this vehicle and a set of winter tires for it. They’re getting listed for $23k.

I own a 2019 base model with a wheel and stripe package with 19 inch wheels 6 speed and LOVE the car! I use it for my 80 mile daily commute. Horsepower is 310 and 350 foot pounds @ 3000 RPM. Lot of power down low and you can stream your music with the crappy Sinc unit.

Hey Bryan great video. How bad is the sound from the base audio? I don't use NAV or Apple play just the radio or my phone. Thanks.

Best bargain sports car is the Miata. This is second best... but is the first best option if you don’t fit in the Miata. As for the “not a ‘real’ Mustang” stuff? Balderdash. The car wants to GO. Plenty of speed, plenty of acceleration, plenty of power.

Can you turn the bell off that goes off everytime you start it?

Will Ford make this a swap candidate with all the controllers needed? Would be cool to have one in my 88 Turbocoupe.

Sean Meyers thanks for saying this. Mustang began pulling young buyers and a lot of them think of mustang as a higher brand than ford. I hope ford realizes this and make base model feel nice as well. Also did you know around MY 18 or 19 they got rid of lights on automatic transmission? How much did they save, like two dollars? I really don’t understand these mismatch of having keyless entry and automatic lights as standard yet no touch screen or having manual seat.

Come on dude! 310hp 350ft lbs torque!

Please Bryan do some homework on the car before discussing. 310HP\350 torque. You say no sunroof, there is no sunroof available on any Mustang, that would have been a great option. Though I do thank you for trying to show a base model. I agree the infotainment system is a bit cheap. My wife's Hyundai for 5 g less has an incredible stereo. Ford just did a bad job there. Otherwise my 2020 is amazing. You are right about the 6 speed manual, that is until you get stuck in tight traffic. Thanks.
