After owning the Mustang for two days, I've already driven over 500 km (310 miles) with it. Pretty amazing considering that I drove that much with the Corvette during the whole summer. It's just so much more comfortable and spacious inside the Mustang that I love driving it.
While cruising around, I decided to measure the fuel consumption of the car. I filled the tank when starting, drove for 160 km (100 miles) and filled the tank again. Nearly all of the way was driven on highway at about 100 km/h (62 mph). The car had drank 21,5 liters (5.68 gallons) which counts as 13,5 liters / 100 km (17.4 MPG).
Not as bad as the Corvette but still quite a lot. While cruising at 100 km/h the engine was turning 2500 RPM. Swapping the current 4-speed transmission to an overdrive T-5 would be a great upgrade when changing the clutch.
