picked up mine today

Picked up my hot lava manual one today. I was a bit hesitant about the color as the only car I'd seen it on was an iQ and it looked ok but not great. I love the color on the FR-S.

It drives really well but had to work hard to keep it below 4k.

Something I didn't know before today: the odometer also shows instaneous MPG, average MPG, and outside temp too. Basic car computer stuff these days but a nice touch.

Thank you for confirming that. Was hoping/expecting it would but nobody seemed to mention it before. Congrats!

Oh hey, can you check to see if it has miles until empty? Thanks.

It does *not* have miles to empty. Just avg mpg, instant mpg, outside temp, and current shift reminder setting (I think that's what it is, I haven't played with it).
