At least from zero to about 50 my wife's turbo 2.5L Legacy at 265 HP (MT) runs almost as strong as my 4.6L Mustang (MT, supposedly 315-ish with a mild tune), which is about on par HP-wise with the 3.6L Camaro V6. I fully expect an EB4 2015 Mustang to pull away from either of those two cars of mine.

The EB4 is not the entry engine and will be quicker and faster then the V6 Mustang which has always been quicker and faster then the V6 Camaro.

Your wife's Legacy GT traps the 1/4 mile in 104mph the hands of the journalists at Motorweek which is a faster trap speed then any Mustang or Camaro V6 ever tested.
