I do like to have fun with it, BUT I have a very long commute to work. I did alot of reserch and learned alot about GM's direct injection endeavors, test drove a few and read alot about their fuel economy, epa says 30 and that's coming from a turbocharged car.
Is it so much to ask to have power on tap, and get very good economy in any situation your not choosing to use all that power, peak power output should not dictate fuel economy and this car fits that bill very well. Alot of people get lost on smaller engines, lower power levels and they don't understand that an engine's efficiency is dictated by its operating load range not it's peak outputs. I make well over 300HP with the tune, yet gained additional mpg in the process. It really is a win win with this car. You can have your sport compact and rather than killing its efficiency with bolt ons and turbo kits, it's an out of the box eco friendly sporty car. And that's why I bought it, it fits closest to my commuter life AND my weekend pleasure drives.
