Once you push this motor it really seems to get to high speeds quickly. At least twice today on the highway I was over 110mph within a few seconds and with plenty more to go...........
As for MPG.......not sure how the others are driving but my average according to the computer read out is now heading down from a peak of 20.2 to 19.7 and seems to be heading lower. Considering this is supposed to be a performance oriented car.........why are some so obsessed with MPG?

Next time try holding down the + paddle down after selecting the next gear.
Ex. 1st to 2nd gear, if you want to hold redline in 2nd gear and prevent it from shifting as you would in a manual just hold down the paddle when you go to pull it to shift into 2nd gear, except this time don;'t release it and give it gas to redline. Just be ready to let the paddle go or else it will bounce off the rev limiter as it would in a manual.
