I'm excited about the Eco Boost engines in the Ford lineup. Now we'll have the industry's badass engine lineup. Not sure about how I feel about it in the Mustang, though. My concern is seeing it phase out the V8. I would love to see it as a specialty motor ala the SVO, but the mainstream performance engine in the 'Stang should relly be a V8. I know the EB engines will put out great power, and be lighter, but there is just something about the primal, dirty, brutishness of a nasty V8. Not to mention the exhaust note. I like the Eco Boost, but I LOVE a V8!!! I want a stallion, not a mare.
