Top 10 Performance Cars Under $30,000

Ford Mustang EcoBoost Fastback

Ford’s 2015 Mustang is so new it’s still wet behind the ears. This foal may seem pretty docile but it actually kicks like a wild stallion. EcoBoost models feature a 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that cranks out 310 ponies and 320 lb-ft of torque. Thanks to impressive output figures this car should be able to scamper from a standstill to 60 miles an hour in the low five-second range.

But even better than that is the fuel economy. Combined it stickers at up to 25 MPG.

As for pricing a basic EcoBoosted fastback model with a six-speed manual gearbox can be yours for less than $26,000, including $825 for destination and delivery. Even the Premium variant, which comes with numerous extra features, squeaks in at less than $30,000, albeit by a solitary Abe Lincoln.
