This is official data from manufacturer, why should I believe to 40mpg statemens ?

AE86 GTS starts with 112hp and top version is 124hp rated (MAP/AFM, eco-stuff etc).
Yeah, vvt is good thing (the 4AGE 20V is very good example) but here you compare FE vs GE engines. Economic vs pure sport. 6k RPM vs 7k+ one. In this particular case I doubt that vvt means performance.

I'm not sure that we should underestimate Toyota sport engines. 2ZZFE vs 1.8 VTI hondas, 4AGE vs ZC1/B16 ones. The iron block and closed deck of old Toyota engines are advantage for NA-to-forced induction conversions - no block guard required, 4AGZE internals survive in very high power levels (no stock Honda internals comparable to these - except maybe S2000 ones).
About real USA muscle car - yes, why not. You are in USA. This is not possible (and popular) in Europe due to some reasons (taxes, fuel cost etc.).
