Nice freezing ac without idling the car.

Interesting about the instruments. Electric AC sounds good when stuck idling often.

I put no effort into optimizing fuel economy in the Cayman. Hardly even pay attention to it but my indicator has always read above 20mpg not too bad for 365hp and a heavy foot.

Right, life's too short to make a fun car boring. I've thought about it, but I just can't. Since most of my driving is interstate with relatively low traffic levels, I set my cruise 95% of the time to keep myself out of trouble, or at least, to try to minimize it.
