Impressive Numbers

I picked up my TL-S on Saturday, July 14th. I've only driven it on weekends, so only 95 miles on the odometer til today. What better way to slowly break the engine in then take it on road trip.

First complete fill-up, 31.22 Miles Per Gallon. This is excellent fuel economy for a car that has this much power.

This car rocks!!

When you are done breaking it in, your curiosity will make you wonder how 286HP feels like...the MPG goes downhill from there.

But, it will be fun! Congrats on your purchase!

Average speed was 65 mph. Total distance was 298 miles. Varied my speed and also RPM's by changing between 5th and 6th gear.
