MPG and Redline

For ChrisK who asked about holding redline today for the first time I took it took redline and it shifted for me to the next gear so unless I am doing something wrong this is probably a good thing........as car feels like it reached peak performance prior to redline anyhow. 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?
