Picked 'er up tonight!
So far I'm absolutely in love. This car is simply amazing...the engine is really beyond what I had even expected with the sound and smoothness. Interior and features blow me away, and I love the way the car drives.
On the way home I averaged 29.2MPG at about 65MPH...is this normal? If so, this thing gets better gas mileage than my 4 cylinder Camry.
Sorry for the crappy pics, way more to come tomorrow!

I filled up right before I got on the highway and that's what it was averaging as per my "trip Information" option in the Nav.

never trust the navi. You have to manually calculate it. The meter can be off by 5mpg.
