[QUOTE="blair223, post: 12419539, member: 134111"] Getting ready to call it quits for the driving season here in upstate NY. Just passed 8500 miles on the odometer this week. Ran some rough calculations: Got the car on 6/4 about 5 months ago so I averaged about 56 miles per day Gas prices here for 93 have been as high as $4.40 but even using $4 as a conservative average with my pretty much consistent just under 13 mpg (I tend to drive a bit non-conservative ;-) ), that works out to around $520/month for gas. Worth every penny though, I absolutely love this car and it is as close to perfect as it gets. Have not had any mechanical issues and it drives like a dream. Just beware of the factory tires and cold weather. I've been reluctant to put it away for the winter and have been driving in below 40 weather. Forget about punching it, tires will spin with anything past 1/4 throttle in 1st through 3rd. So into the garage it goes. [IMG]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/52665667/IMG_0340.JPG[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
