I can argue one particular exception.

Corvettes get pretty good gas mileage concidering their power. The C6 is rated at 16/26 mpg on the new more stringent 2008 testing method, which is pretty good for a 436 HP. The 505 HP Z06 is rated at 15/25 mpg. You'll be hard pressed to find another car made by anyone that has that kind of power and that kind of gas mileage.
