sounds like someone got his ass handed to him by a rice burnin 4 banger.
domestic= gas guzzling, overweight, low hp per liter, piece of redneck backyard wrench bending, and too blind to learn how things should be done from imports.
Import= economical, less weight to lug around, makes the most with as little as possible, expertly engineered, and been showing the domestic guys how to run a 10 sec 1/4 on half the cylinders for years.
argue domestics have bigger engines and more torque.....thats great since you need it to get you 3000lbs plus pile to move.
2004 mustang gt 3379lbs 260hp and 17/25 mpg ( city/hwy )
15.1 1/4
go back to 1988 and travel to japan to see the 88 crx si approx 2000 lbs 160hp 30/37 ( approx )
14.1 1/4
I have an 88 crx si with jdm swap, a few bolt ons and I run petal to the floor, still get 28 mpg in city.
turbo a honda...... still get more mpg than any domestic.... and make a corvette cry for his mommy
