One of the reasons the Z06 gets such good millage is because its light and one of the most aerodynamic cars you can buy.

No - Corvette gets good mileage because of 6th gear.

If you use it and stay below 2000rpm you get 28mpg.

Anything else you get 14mpg - period

Think about it - The engines in the the S2000 and Type-R cars have been proven to be some of the most reliable engines in the world.

But slow as piss though the twisties..

Just ask Jon_s..

Well yeah, thats why I said one of.....I was tryna stay away from the more technical stuff. Cause realistically it seems that all cars would be geared like that..but.........they arent.

I dont know if you have driven an Integra Type- R, but if you havnt you might wanna wait on that opinion. Driving a front wheel drive car that oversteers with balance, and grips better than many real wheel drive cars is an incredible experience. Watch some Touge on Best Motoring, it will give you an idea of what that car can do. As for the S2000, the handling is nothing to brag about. The NSX-R needs no explanation - 7:56 at the ring with only 276 hp speaks for itself.

Im getting an M3 next year and i'm gonna make a trip down there to Houston. You gotta show me the ropes down there one day, other than the ones i already know...aka - car dealerships. Drove an STI for the first time at a dealership right off of 45. ***Sigh*** the freedom of a big city
