my friend had a 300c, and my city MPG is better then his highway ;P

30mpg means its about 8L / 100km, my friends 1 year old 300c, gets about 400km to a full 77l? tank, its an over hyped number, my B16a2 gets me an average of 12km/L which is 30mpg 60highway/40city

DOD motors don't work that well probably because the car they are in, is heavy, if they put a V8 into a 3000lb package, then maybe it could provide an actual 30mpg or higher otherwise you pay to play, they provide a bit of a boost in MPG as it seems so far, and I heard some people complaining that the transition is rough, the 300c seemed seemless though, but still not 30mpg.

someone who buys a civic? or someone who isn't looking to race at every stoplight? ME? I'm sure alot of people do specially those who have long commutes. why is it that everytime I read your posts it's some sort of ignorant comment?

let me rephrase my post....

if you would rather have a car that gets 30mpg then a car that has the ability to do wheelies.... then your a fool.

wow, you just reinforced my previous post! thanks... I'll take the 30mpg any day over a dragster that can do wheelies, and if I was going to invest in a race car, it wouldn't be a drag setup!

by the way, the wheelie is not impressive at all, the whole point of that picture is the fact that the amount of tq coming out of that engine twisted the frame
