so what if i were to turn off s-mode and my downshifting sucks and i over rev the engine to match the rpm. that technicalyl would be more gas being used to spool it up to the correct speed compared to s-mode matching it automatically.

as others have said... who the f- cares.

IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR DAMN FUEL ECONOMY GO BUY AN F-ING CIVIC OR CAROLLA

if you're too cheap to fill up premium, fill when you need gas and are penny pinching for a few more squirts of gas... refer to above and sell the damn car and

Well then sir you need to learn throttle control if your going to rev the piss out a the engine to match speed. I do totally agree with you though go buy a godamn Prius if you care about mpg or maybe a BMW 2m series you'll get 30+ mpg 300+ hp and look like a homosexual while doing it

well more so i'm still green behind the ears for manual driving... only put down 7000km and this is my first manual. some speeds/gears i know other's it's live n learn. but i was referring to the s-mode htiting it bang on as opposed to me going over by lets say 500rpm or so. i don't just floor it to redline it in neutral while trying to find the rpm... that's just silly... or is it?

and agreee.. the 2 series are littel rockets but a little bit more on teh feminine side... then again i like to make sure i look sexy all the time for all the fu**-a-bi**es
