Got 26 MPG in a trip over to St. Petersburg, and got 29 MPG coming back- about 120 miles each way at 75 MPH. Have about 350 miles on it now. HK sound system is great. Michelin PSS are great. Had the Continental DW's on the 2011, and these are better. Could not stand the RFT's so changed them as soon as I took delivery.
The runflats on this car are pretty crappy, and plan to take mine off asap, but had a little issue with the tire mounting shop - they scratched two of my VMRs...

yeah i had a 2011 that was totaled out, and this is my replacement also. i missed driving this car so much, and im sure you fell the same nostalgia that i feel . i feel so .... complete (if thats the right word) in being re-united with the car, except i get to start all over again from 0 miles! haha

only about 190 on mine so far, but gonna add at least 200 this weekend.
