Merry Christmas to Me!!!
Just got my EcoBoost yesterday and have been having a blast. It's a base model with automatic and Performance Package, and ceramic cloth interior. I should have went with ebony, not realizing ceramic would get dirty easier 
I'm amazed at how docile the car is in drive, but when you shift into sport, with or without using the paddles, it becomes an animal. Very Jeckyll and Hyde personality. It handles like it's on rails and probably shouldn't be this fast for a 4 cylinder. The speed does creep up on you. I don't get the big deal about the so-called "fake exhaust note." To me it's nothing major but to each his own, I guess. I feel that the EcoBoost engine is a welcome addition to the Mustang's engine lineup. You really can't go wrong with any engine, despite what anyone else says. After driving this car, owning a 4 banger Stang is nothing to be embarrassed about.
A special thanks to Deysha at Ford Service for all her help. Thank you, Deysha!!
Oh, forgive the quality of my pictures. I need a new camera.

It is a huge dust manget. Ha ha ha. As soon as I clean one part and start another, it gets dirty on the clean part. Ha ha ha. Sometimes I think my Kona blue is as bad as black paint. Lol

Congrats! These are great cars. The more you drive it the more you appreciate what it is capable of. There is another forum devoted just to all Ecoboost cars. I was a member with my SHO and have remained with the Mustang. Here is the link if interested:
