My Mustang's lifetime average MPG is 47% over EPA combined estimate. That's with very little effort, other than DWB and not wasting excessive time accelerating.

210 HP @ 5300 RPM
240 Lb*Ft Torque @ 3500 RPM
3351# curb weight

According to Car and Driver's test:
0-60 MPH: 6.5 seconds
Quarter mile: 15.3 seconds @ 93 MPH
