The 5.0 HO Mustang V-8 engine runs about 14.5 to 15.0 in the quarter-mile, average.

The 2.3 four-cylinder Mustang runs around 20 seconds in the quarter-mile.

There is no real comparison here and your friend is an idiot for even trying to sell you this drivel.

Don't even bother considering a 2.3 Mustang if you want any performance. They're a dog; meant for good gas mileage and little more. If you want good mileage, buy a motorcycle.
