Just took the roadster from Vegas to L.A. for the weekend. I was able to accelerate in any gear at any speed on any incline. Even did the Angeles Crest highway to Palmdale [that was fun]. Averaged around 80 mph going and between 75-80 coming home. Oh yeah, averaged 29.5 mpg going and over 30 coming back. Thought about going the speed limit to see what the mileage would be - only thought about it. I for one ain't complaining. Plenty of pep and a whole lotta fun, and an economy car to boot. The fun part reminded me on why I bought it in the first place.
