It is fun to try to plan your fuel consumption and coast around... almost as fun as hitting apexes haha. It's too bad it's not a manual- I don't think engine off coasting would go too well with an auto.
Here is a shot from a few months ago, E90? I guess there other names for this chassis but I call it a AE92, going by chassis code. That's my 90 GTU RX7 in the background I sold already but I have 2 others. and I been having ideas of a high mpg rotary vehicle which is going to be fun, they get pretty decent mileage but if you compare it to it's 1.3 displacement 22mph is not great.
Yes this car handles pretty light since it weighs nothing almost.


As you can see, I like white cars and black.
Yea, It isn't as bad but Manual would be easier.
I shift into Neutral first then shut off the engine with key.
Fall about 10mpg then engine on and back into D and pulsed up.
Worked like a charm. I just saw one on craigslist you guys have to check it out:
1990 Toyota Corolla SR5 coupe with goofy paint - OBO
What a beauty she is huh! lol
I offered the guy $500 so I could use the transmission and engine for a swap later but he wouldn't budge from 700.
