Not sure what you mean. Just drove it to Chicago the other day. I averaged 37mpg (~6.4l/100km). In city, if I drive it like just a plain commuter car I can get mid-20s. Might be low in the land of 1L engines and diesels, but from a car that could be driven around the track with lots of fun - that's plenty of mpgs.

I looked at the onboard computer and it said 12.4l/100km. I didn't do that! :sly: It was an average fuel consumption from all the other people that drove the car before me.
The way I drive I could probably get around 6 - 7l/100km
 
This thing must be a blast to drive
 
Had to happen eventually:

Eh, it's alright. The commentator guy was hilarious though. :lol:
 
Hate Flowmaster. Nothing worse than an old Mustang with flows.

Also, they screwed up the wheel arches with that paint. It's supposed to be black all the way around.
 
Some might be interested in this video. UEL header + turbo.

 
Turbo BRZ does a 1/4 mile in 11.3 sec @ 127 MPH.

 
Meh, until they last at least a year or two w/o needing a new shortblock, I'm not impressed.
 
I love the idle drop/stalling/camshaft sensor problems that seems to affect all of em..

Still better than in my previous turbo-Subaru ;)
By about 5-6mpg.

what was your previous turbo Subie?
 
Top safety pick compared to what? Can't imagine a side impact would be very friendly. Especially against the outgoing generation of super-tall cars and trucks...
 
technology is wonderful
 
So what I got from those crash tests is...Don't crash.
 
No, man. I mean, top for its class, or top among all cars? I don't think "Good" cuts it anymore.

I'd assume "for the class". Most are these days. Not that it matters too much. I wouldn't expect a small sports car to be as safe as a big lump of SUV, but then a small sports car is more likely to be able to avoid an accident in the first place...
 
Would have to hear a drive-by or hear it in person.
