The 2.0L turbo is one of the best engines I've ever driven. It's not the smoothest, so if you're after a smooth shifting cruise get the non-turbo snail. But you will love this engine. It is getting better fuel economy than the (albeit old) Mazda3 it replaced, and it's costing $45 to fill a tank... and it moves. I'm so impressed.

HOWEVER, Ford is replacing it. If you can hold off, the new engine is coming for the 2016 models it seems.
