[QUOTE=Trekintosh;47471639]If yours isn't the supercharged variant then it's only making 170 horsepower though, and the efficiency is only 1 MPG higher.[/QUOTE]
Uh, no, the supercharged variant is 225 HP, the base 3.8 non supercharged is 205hp.

Ah, my bad.
But the real question is, does it really matter?
Fuel efficiency is all up to how you drive anyway. I average 21.2mpg in my car which supposedly gets 23 city / 35 hwy, but that's just cause I always am driving in the city and I usually keep my car in Sport+ mode and enjoy the acceleration.

there are people who drive the 98 no supercharged variant and have reported getting all the way up to nearly or just past 40mpg.
I could get 35mpg all day long if I wanted to.
But I'm too young to be putzing around like michelle bachman in a prius.
So I average about 18-25 probably. It's just too fun to be wide open throttle hearing that induction noise and actually moving considering my car has 100hp, if not less and about the same weight.
this thread is now about gay cars

Someone sprayed it with 'De-gay'
What brand of truck nuts do you guys recommend
My Ma just bought herself a new car and was kind enough to give me her old one.
I'm now the proud owner of an all black 04 Pontiac Grand Prix
It has the base 3.8L V6, but it puts out more than enough power for me.
I get 61MPG :D
Saw the psychologist today. Constructive. I kinda regret organising a second date with this guy so soon I've been pushing too hard.

How was everyones easter? Get up to much?
[QUOTE=greeley;47473290]How was everyones easter? Get up to much?[/QUOTE]
I decided to live up to my avatar and stayed whole day in bathrobe, playing TES Skyrim.
I met my online friend on the Saturday and it went so much better than i expected. I had such a good time.
we had a really big, nice dinner on saturday, then I went to have pizza with my friend around midnight
having people over and being social all day ends up so physically draining
We didn't do anything for easter and never do. When I was a kid we used to do the whole egg hunting thing but I am a bit old now.
Easter begins to suck the moment you're old enough to buy your own chocolate.
So what would be a perfect date for you? No one in particular, I am just oddly curious as to what people would do given the power to choose.
I'd just like to wander around Sydney at night, wandering into small restaurants and walking in the parks and harbor side. Preferably raining because I like rain and don't mind getting wet.
A long drive to a shooting range, then a long drive back in the rain followed by comfort food then snuggles in bed :3
