Yea, if you use 6th gear, typically I don't because its geared so high you need to be going at least 60mph to use it, it tacks about 1600 or so at 65mph, feels like idle. I just love being able to keep it in 4th or so and still be able to punch it when I want. I have a heavy foot and I'm getting about 250 to a tank if I'm lucky. Remember, it's not an economy car.

'99+ GTs have been known to break into 13s stock... I've heard as low as 13.8.

You can run at 55 or 60mph in it, but you'll have absolutely no throttle response.

yeah, good conditions to get into the 13s, but almost anyone can get low 14s with one. I bet if I drove one in good conditions I'd never get under a 14.5
