Powertrain options grow from two to three with the addition of a turbocharged 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine similar to the one debuting in the Lincoln MKC crossover. The high- end Mustang still uses an optional 5.0-liter V-8 engine, making more than 420 horsepower through a six-speed manual or automatic transmission. The standard engine is still the 3.7-liter V-6, which will make more than 300 hp, according to Ford. Out back is an independent rear suspension. This modernizes the Mustang and brings it in line with every other sports car on the market. Ford also took the opportunity to update the car's front suspension as well, employing a new perimeter sub frame to stiffen everything up and a new double ball-joint MacPherson strut setup enabling use of larger brakes.

Inside, the retro-inspired look continues with round vents, a dual-binnacle dashboard and toggle switches for controlling the electrically adjustable steering and powertrain response. Two large round analog gauges face the driver, just as before, featuring a retro-inspired font, just as before. Ancillary round gauges now appear between air conditioning vents on the dashboard as well. The Mustang also gets the full Ford technology treatment, with a touch-screen located fairly low in the center console for easy reach; the company's Sync system with MyFord Touch is standard.

Whether you want to relive your youth or are just looking for an affordable and livable sports car, the Mustang can deliver. Performance packages can further crank up the Mustang's capability with Brembo brakes, stiffer suspension, leather Recaro seats, and bigger wheels with extra-grippy tires.
