Best of all, consistently getting 27 mpg with spirited driving. Near future plans will be the bolt on supercharger which will up the ponies to 480. All out of a 3.7 liter.
High 13s in the base model; in 1969 a well tuned 428 Mustang might do that.

Regardless of make it's amazing how fast these new cars are even the slow ones -
