I've been eyeing this for over 2 weeks.

Woah, I would've figured more than 11mpg city out of this... But I suppose it's a V10.

Holy fuck! Only an 18.5 gallon fuel tank? That's a range of 240 miles at the epa combined estimate of 13mpg! Realistically like 225 miles... That's got to be a pain in the ass.

Does it come with a warranty option? If so, SOLD!

There is a tune out there to put half the motor in limp mode and run only 5 cylinders. I doubt it's reliable, but sounds kind of cool. 5 more cylinders on demand sounds ridiculous

If you pick it up and get it somewhere in the Chicagoland area, I'd thoroughly enjoy tagging along to document the occasion.

Really? I can't find any info on this on google.

I am mistaken, the car I'm referring to had some kind of massive failure in one whole cylinder bank, and was running on the other half, to get it into the shop and start doing work. Maintenance was done at Pro Auto in Memphis.

My Evo is looking for a gas station at about 250 miles. 13 gallon tank. You get used to it.

Ugh, my last two cars were close to the 400 mark if driven kindly, my current car is more so in the low 300's and it pisses me off, haha.

I came pretty close to buying an E60 M5. If the banks would have liked me a little better I wouldn't have even considered the FR-S. A part of me still wants dat V10, but the part of me that pays bills is glad I didn't.

Loved my Jetta Sportwagen TDI - 450 easily; my '04 Passat TDI had a bigger tank and would show 675 bladder-bustin' miles to empty...
