Halo car Coupe (Mustang)
The Mustang has been weird. A 4-banger is like, un-American, but after test-driving it, I was sold. Feels & sounds absolutely fantastic (although iirc the sound is just from some kind of speaker system?), and I would definitely take it over the non-turbo 6-cylinder.
Curious to see what they do with the hybrid version - it would be fun if they did it as a boost like they did with the Fusion Hybrid for police offers:

It will go into pursuit mode when the throttle is held down for five seconds, engaging both the gas and electric motors. While not as quick as the 3.7-liter turbocharged Taurus-based Interceptor, Ford figures it'll be fast enough to earn law enforcement's "pursuit" rating.
