2012	4dr Sedan 470-horsepower 6.4L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	This car has a 6.4-Liter V8 engine which produces more horsepower and torque than you'd ever need for any passing situation or any driving situation. That is, unless your las t name is "Andretti". The first of the 2nd gen 300 models I drove was the 390HP V8 in the AWD model, followed by the Pentastar V6. see full Chrysler 300 review
2011	4dr Sedan 292-horsepower 3.6L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	I am light footed when it comes to driving and this car with the 3.6 will return very favourable fuel economy when treated as such. This car had 500 km when I purchased it and now has 1800 km and highway mileage is consistently at 7.3 L/100Km. see full Chrysler 300 review

2008	4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic RWD	I am not impressed with the fuel economy that my car gets. It only gets 22-24 mpg. The sticker states 26-28. I get that it is a bigger, heavier car, but they need to be more honest and realistic about the mpg. see full Chrysler 300 review
2008	4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic RWD	I get about 20-25% worse fuel economy than EPA specified in the city, although on the highway I do 5-10% better, despite my occasional lack of regard for the posted speed limit. see full Chrysler 300 review

TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Ford Mustang

Ford Mustang Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Comment
2006	The performance of these cars is not without an obvious tradeoff. In EPA tests, the Mustang GT manages only 15 mpg city, but 25 mpg highway, with the manual transmission. With the optional six-speed automatic, the car can go a mile farther per gallon in the city. The Audi rates a little better in the city, but worse on the highway: 16/23. In my real-world suburban driving, the Mustang's trip computer most often reported averages in the 16-17 range. With a light foot I could nudge the average over 20, and even as high as 24, but what's the point of driving a Mustang GT like you would (or at least should) a Prius? On a 70-mph highway, with the big V8 spinning under 2,000 rpm in top gear, the trip computer reported a fairly impressive (for such a large, powerful engine in a fairly heavy car) 28 mpg. But if you want decent fuel economy in either car, you'll have to ditch the V8. The new EcoBoost four-cylinder achieves 22/31 with a manual transmission and 21/32 with the automatic. The Audi manages similar figures with a 220-horsepower 2.0T four-cylinder engine, but 17/26 with the manual and 18/28 with the automated dual-clutch transmission and the S5's supercharged V6. see full Ford Mustang review

2010	2dr Coupe 210-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed manual RWD	The 698 was a HP390, and got abou 9mph. I oped for the 6 because it has all the power I need and gets real world fuel economy equal to my Escapes. I consistantly get 23 plus in mixed driving see full Ford Mustang review
2009	2dr Coupe 300-horsepower 4.6L V8 5-speed manual RWD	For a 4.6L V8 using 87 octane, 20 city and 28 hwy is not bad. see full Ford Mustang review
2008	2dr Coupe 300-horsepower 4.6L V8 5-speed manual RWD	For a V8, I still get great fuel economy. I average 21mpg with combined city & highway, about 75% city. Only long highway trips, I average 27mpg at 70mph. see full Ford Mustang review
2007	2dr Coupe 300-horsepower 4.6L V8 5-speed manual RWD	Surprisingly, the V8 gets about 23-25 MPG highway driving IF you behave; better than my SUV. The Stang is my choice for my frequent 800+ miles trips once or twice per month. see full Ford Mustang review
2005	2dr Coupe 210-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic RWD	Not bad at all for a sports car with a big six cyl. see full Ford Mustang review
