Just received my new 2006 white w/putty leather OBXT yesterday. Traded my infamous VW GTI 1.8T 5M...German - uh... never again...
Wow what a car -- breaking it in correctly is hard - eh? Trying to keep this beast within the speed limits is equally trying. Can't wait for the next 500 miles, then I can knock on the door of some unsuspecting BMW sedan and unleash her fury on the Beemer.
I am very impressed with the fit n finish. The dealer was perfect to work with.
I'm into gaining the most miles per gallon with many sprints to the top of the rev range allowable in time -- but mostly will cover many miles o' ground hauling my musical gear all over the country...(next weekend is St Louis.)
Any tools/tricks I should know to squeeze some more mileage outta my Subie.?
I drove it home several hundred miles yesterday in mixed rpm and mph ranges and averaged 22-24 mpg between 62 mph & 82 mph.
Is that "good" or respectible - or should it be better - knowing it's a brand new mill.
I'm all ears - -and happy to be a part of this ever growing motoring cult.
Blessings:
