And besides, we're getting 28-32mpg doing it (your mileage may vary depending on the weight of your right foot :))

ya but even with a heavy foot were still kicking the 6 cyl guys ass when it comes to MPG. :)

I filled up in the morning, drove 100 km to the track, did 4 sessions with the foot to the floor pretty much all the time, drove back in the little roads and stopped at a restaurant (at least 150 km), and I still had about half a tank :D I'd like to see a 6 cyl. do that!

Lets see here...1km=0.62miles, so lets see here, that's 62 miles to the track, and another 93 miles back plus all that track driving...hmmm pretty good.

I don't care about the mileage as long as it's over 25 MPG.
I like it because of it's looks and the fun factor. Plus, my wife and daughters think it's cute.
