with the prius tires i'd see around 31-32, best of 33.1. with the wider super sports i was seeing 27-28 but my commute changed to all backroads doing 55-65 so its gone up to around 30-31.

A GTR with a blown engine isn't that baller

Now, on the other hand, a $27K AE86 with a 250HP race motor... Thats baller.

i do 100 miles a day with cruise set at 67. i havent done interstate driving in the car yet. not looking forward to the road/wind noise when i do. bad enough at 65. certainly one of the biggest gripes with the car. ill be curious what mileage it does at the higher speed though.

So far I've seen 10 fellow 86's around town. Sadly I'm always in my truck and never in the car when I see them.

And when I'm in the car it's like every flatbilled dipshit in their dad's powerstroke wants to race me. How about no.

I'll be in Seattle this weekend. My local guy there is taking me to some good roads. I have no idea where but if any of you are out for a drive Saturday and see a red burz with potato plates, give a wave.
