    Re: Thinking about trading in the CR-Z for a Fiat 500 Abarth, thoughts?

    It's a great mpg since the power you have in it. I had count it to l/m which is liter/10km here in Europe 0.73l/m. If you where to drive it with the gas here 95 octane or even 98 octane I think you would have a little more mpg. My Audi S4 -92 5cyl turbo chip tuned to around 300hp was at 1.00l/m on 98 octane and 1.10l/m on 95 octane. And the Kia cee'd turbo diesel 128hp is about 0.5l/m.

    I know we have traded a little info about the Detroit scene, if I remember correctly you had a Capri with a 408? I racked my brain, I never raced a Capri, I bet we have crossed paths sometime back then. Probably we were standing across the street from one another watching something go down.

    Wait til your little one asks you to do a burnout. That made my day when one of my girls asked for a smoky burnout then both applauded my effort. Man they grow up so fast, guess I’ll be teaching them power slides, donuts and big fat number elevens soon enough.

    I'd have to pull the hand brake to do a burnout....but I wouldn't. I need to borrow someone's car if/when this happens. I know it's not smart but when my older girls were little I raced a Cobra Mustang while in my GN with them in the car.
