2 things guys. 1- What's the true ave. gas mileage for the GT. I just dont believe that it's 21 for an 8 cyl. American car. Also, how does it feel to see a car like an STI fly by on the highway, and know that there's no way to handle/perform at that level? I want a GT sooo badly, but people assure me that I wouldn't be happy with the performance. Thanks.

Real-World gas mileage reports for both GT and V6 are in this thread here -summary is toward the end, third page.

Most of the GT mileage figures come from owners with manual transmissions, we didn't get a lot of feedback from the automatic owners, but the two are very close.

I looked up "STI" in Google and found "Sexually Transmitted Infections". Think I'll stay away from that.

The 05 GT has to be the first sub 30k stock car to hit under 5.0 seconds with pure engine power right?(That discludes S/C, turbo's, and aftermarket stuff). True American Muscle

I guess that it is TRUE that the Stang is the ONLY car under $30K new thus far to go 0-60 in LESS than 5 seconds.

Aha! You didn't say "adjusting for inflation!"

1965 Shelby 427 Cobra - 0-60 in 4.6 seconds, cost ......$8,800.
