Default Two videos of 2015 Mustangs: GT vs Ecoboost

Would you rather go for a drive in the 2015 Ford Mustang GT or the 2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost?

Here are two of them in action.

I had them both running at the same time and I swear the Ecoboost seemed a lot faster. I had to keep pausing it to let the GT catch up!? Anyone else notice that...?

Nether were being driven in anger. They were just cruising around. The Ecoboost sounded a lot better than I thought it would.

yeah they had grandaddy behind the wheel for a sunday drive... I think the eco boost video the driver got higher in the RPMs though. ecoboost is 310hp, 320tq weighs 3532 and the v8 is 435hp 3705lbs. and 400tq.

just under 200lbs heavier and 125lbs more power.. ecoboost isn't beating the GT.

Ecoboost seems faster because of its capacity.

My Question: Is the ECO-Boost going to be speed limited at 115mph like the V6? Sorry but I still feel cheated since I found this out about the 13 V6 I purchased. It seems to be Fords best kept secret that a MiniCooper will outrun a Mustang V6.
