To calculate mileage, you want to reset your trip odometer to zero with a full tank of gas. Then drive until you normally fill up (I usually wait until I have a 1/4 tank left). divide number of miles driven to how many gallons you pumped into your car. That will give you your MPG.

Oh quit whining, you babies

I agree that the gas mileage is horrific for a 6-cylinder, but some of you are just looking for things to complain about. Whoever was complaining about blind spots in the G, please drive an S2000 for a day and then complain

This car is great, with enough power and lots of goodies. I would have more things to complain about with a bimmer that I would've paid $10K more for!

Just had the car for 3 weeks, but here's my list...

1. Clutch positioning and engagement... its kinda high and cannot be adjusted.
2. REV light always on (I guess there is a way to fix that).
3. Seat belt irritates on shoulder/neck area on a long drive.
4. The lights don't blink when unlocking with remote. (Blink while locking).
5. The car feels heavy.

1. Can't recycle air with A/C off.
2. Clicking sound from clutch.
3. Rattling from under-body when accelerating from low rpm's.

That's it.

It consumes engine oil like a ****. Well, the first engine did. Now, it's a waiting game for the second one.

i've only had it for a week and havent really driven it a bunch, but I know already the cheesy feeling from the HVAC controls and the radio buttons is gross.

I also feel they could have done more to sculpt the guage panel cover instead of it being so bland and unfinished looking.
