I stand corrected
A good Turbo four would be fine. I had a Mini John Cooper Works before my Mustang it it went like a bat outta hell. It was a great engine and a fun fast great handling car. A Turbo four "OK"
*******************BUT**************************** *****
That ugly Kia looking body is sure not anything like a Mustang should look like. I hope you guy's are right and this is just a drawing and not really what the Mustang will look like. I guess I just like the retro look and any of these new cookie cutter look alike cars are just not my style.
I really did not mean to upset anybody. I just thought the forum was to offer an opinion and discuss it. Not offer an opinion and get attacked.

I certainly don't care if they offer a Turbo 4 in fact if the 4 generates better MPG and allows the V8 to continue on a while longer I am all for it! It seems everyone has a 2.0 i4 these days for MPGs so I guess it's inevitable.
Regarding the Kia looks the OP mentioned, I have to come to his defense. If you look at the render the OP is referring to it does look very much like a Hyundai Genesis (not Kia IMHO), especially the open mouth front end that the Genesis has now.
I do think it has potential however if it is given a more Mustang look. The problem I have is EVERY render looks so similar and so Fusion look-a-like that I am nervous but still hopeful.

Based on past history, we probably won't see anything more substantial until closer to the end of the year. In fact, I think some speculate this will be shown at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show.
In the meantime, I wait and enjoy the current design of my 2010.

I wouldn't want to listen to V8 rumble all day long or to F1 scream either. All things in moderation. However, a GOOD engine is a delight no matter how many pistons it has.

If they think that stupid looking Kia looking crap is to be called a "Mustang" they must really be taking some really bad drugs. It sure don't look like a Mustang and putting a four cylinder in it is like a kick in the ba$$s if you ask me. A really stupid move from Ford on this Mustang downgrade.

How many including me, if they like the 15' or 16 would purchase a new one?
So these rumors are just rumors, don't get your undies in a bundle. Time will tell

As a owner of countless fox body 2.3L mustangs ill be more then happy if they bring back a turbo 4! How is a turbo eco 4 with possible more power and fuel savings over your auto V6 a bad thing?
ps: if you ever get the chance to go for a ride in a svo,you might just change your mind!

I'm sure there are going to be options for a wide customer base.
as the Mustang has always been. and I can understand why they are
going after the 4 banger market. it is a large market wth a lot of aftermarket
dollars being spent. All we can hope for is they dont forget about us loud rumble
loving V8 guys.
