Nice choice! I have the same car except in nighthawk black pearl. I'll have to warn you, this car doesn't like to cruise at anything slower than 78-80mph, and its in the sweet spot at 85-86mph . Cruising at 78-80 I get about 26-27 mpg, and 24-25 mpg at 85mph. If you can keep it at ~70-72, you can get ~32mpg. The best I've gotten was 34mpg with the cruise control set at 70. All mpg were hand calculated.

Very smart frikken choice!

It will definetly feel good to pay $30 for full tank which will get you 350-400MPG.

I wish it was $30 for a full tank. 13 gallons x $4.50 91 octane = $58.50.
Still much better than my truck ... 38 gallons x $5.00 diesel = $190.
