I rented one in Florida for a week and liked it. It got great gas mileage and handled super fast highway speeds with ease. I set the cruise at 90 mph for a 90 mile trip and still returned 37.5 MPG for the stint. The older model had a Cd of 0.26 and the new one is 0.25. That combined with a low frontal area makes for a slippery high speed car, if you dare.

I have always wanted to buy one, gut it, tub it and install a LSX series engine.
