These are questions you need to ask yourself. As far as the gas milage goes it depends on how you drive it, lead foot you may get between 12 and 20mpg, easy going upwards of 30 on hwy, I average around 24-28 taking it easy. As far a the clear bra issue if you decide to get one get it the same day you pick up the car. if you can find a place see if they wrap the pannels/ under the headlights etc to prevent buildup etc. also this prevents premature peeling. personally I would wrap the entire front bumper, and about 6 inches on the hood and the side skirts, this is where you get the most wear, if you want to spend the money have the entire car wrapped. I feel if you take the time to wash weekly and put a good wax/synthetic like adams polishes or zanio and do a clay bar once in a while a clear bra is not needed but you still develop nicks, that leads you to the questions of color, Black is the worst for this, trust me I own one but it looks hot when cleaned up. I would say white it next. If you go with the graphite it looks like it would hide smaller imperfections better. this is all subjective so take it with a grain of salt and make a decision that is right for you. and by the way since you are in the military I will tell you right now if you are planning on putting your pack in the back be prepared to not see out the back or carry anything else even though there is more usable room than the 350z it is not a truck/car that you can load down. Personally if I need to do this I use my durango to move this stuff. Good luck and stay safe.. Semper Fi.
