op, welcome to the mustang world. my g/f got a 06 premium, (was) nicer than my 05. my car does a whole lot better than 6 ft to a stock 4.0 in the 1/4 with those mods (+a few little things). @over 100k on it. but still a 14`s car is not a race car, but it is fun still and it looks ba

when i got my car stock, it only got about 19 around town on 87. like nuke said, paper and a calculator, a few fill ups recording gal is the only real way to find out for sure.

the overall height of the tires make a big difference as well as air pressure. its not the 20" wheels so much as the rubber band tires on them. my 3.73`s knock it down running higher rpm, but my 275/50-17 (taller tire) offsets the ratio some. with lots of mods, lots of miles i still get 22 around town and 25-28 on the highway cruisin 75mph with 93 oct and a race tune.

I agree. Even at stock ride height, the bottom of my chin spoiler has its share of road rash.
