I have a 2007, so I only have 30K on the clock. I have the same trans as you, because your car was built off my car's platform. I rather like my 5th gear, and do not feel like digging into a barely broken in transmission. I also hear our clutches should be good well past 100k, since they are actually meant for more like 300HP (fact).

these cars seem pretty aerodynamically sound from the factory, so I am wondering what I can get, but even the prius has gains to be had, so I have hopes of 50-55MPG driving conservatively.
