Because the 4.0 engine in the new mustangs is one of the most inefficient engines in the world today, if not the most. Any engine I-4 and 2.8L V6 can match its power easily with double the MPG, Im sorry to break it to you guys but you bought the wrong engine. I mean who the hell buys a sports car with a BIG FAT hamster's wheel engine?

O K well then don't complain that you have an imitiation of a cheap sports car then!, and that every other car on the road beats you and gets much better MPG.

Looks like we have a troll, folks. Oh and FYI, these sixers still beat the majority of cars on the road, and look better than whatever POS you're driving.

Yes the altima with 260 or 270 hp manual may be a little faster however my neighbor has an 05 altima with 250 hp and automatic. I believe I have seen them tested at 6.9 to 60 . Which means my 06 manual which I believe can do it in 6.6 just may be able to take it. And auto stangs could be dead even.
