| 2008 | 2dr Hatch 436-horsepower 6.2L V8 6-speed manual RWD |
I get 30 mph on the road as long as I keep my foot out of the throttle. For a 430+ HP supercar, that is just amazing |
| 2007 | 2dr Hatch 400-horsepower 6.0L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
28 to 32 on the highway with 400+ horsepower--whats not to like???????????? |
| 2007 | 2dr Hatch 400-horsepower 6.0L V8 6-speed manual RWD |
Astoundingly great fuel economy. |

| 2003 | 2dr Coupe 405-horsepower 5.7L V8 6-speed manual RWD |
Great for the size of the engine, but not good enough for $4.00 plus gas prices. As gas goes up, the car gets driven less and less. |
