"Demonstrating that race-bred performance and sedan-like fuel economy are not mutually exclusive."
That's the description they give for the new Grand Sport coupe.
My question is, really? Is that why you should buy a Grand Sport, because it has sedan-like fuel economy? I feel like it should say something else.
Just sayin'.

They get great gas mileage in sixth gear at highway speeds . . .for most folks, I'm thinking that's a
good thing.
Don't over-think it . . .Jus' sayin' . . .
Just some marketing rookie lookin' fer a hook. (fail)

Guess you haven't seen the TON of posts on CF where folks are bragging about their gas mileage! Sure it's important.

The 350 miles to Funfest last week was 34.5 there and 33.2 returning. I think there was a slight tail wind on the trip to Effingham.
I must add though that I was in 6th gear and cruise set at 60 mph all the way was interstate.
