    The longer you go the better mpg it gets... If you drove it to Abilene and left it in 6th most the way, you'd get 32-35 mpg if there wasn't a head wind...

    Id expect about 19-22 AVERAGE with lots of stop and go. The car is light but its geared tall so around town mileage isn't NEAR as good as 1500 rpm on the highway.

    Some headers and an air intake and tune will increase mileage too. Mine with cam actually gets better mpg than it did as long as Im not trying to change lanes with the back wheels.

      That car is pretty sick sounding when it screamed by us at BBORR I think he averaged like 168mph over the 61mile roadway.
      Okay, that makes perfect sense. Yeah, the car was a beast. I think he said it was making around 550rwhp NA with bulletproof reliability. Throw that in a C5 FRC that probably weighs less than 3,000lbs with weight reduction, good Moton suspension, and Hoosier slicks and you have a butt kicking track car.

        I hope one day down the road I can own a new car. But till then I will have to be happy with used cars & im happier then a pig in shit now.
        Thanks Sebastian. Keep up the hard work and you will no doubt get there in time. Your FRC is a fun toy as well. I love those cars on a set CCW SP500's!

            Negative. Not a fan of the 843's, especially for that price.

                Mine were cheaper than CC Dubs. Its a touring style wheel compared to the 5 spoke look, but I think it looks baller on the wife's car.

                    Seb's high class.
                    He'll mow your grass.
                    He'll kick your ass.
                    And while his kidney stones pass,
                    He'll piss in a glass!

But I do alot of Business out of Garland ( AS WELL AS ROCKWALL) I also agree with where Don & Big A are coming from where I could put the money in other places in my life IE my place. The car is a Investment & I am going to enjoy it & use it to run back & fourth to Scurry & to Royse City & Garland. I got a really good deal on the car. I gave 10k for the car & pretty damn sure I can drive it for a year & still sell it for 12 to 13k down the road. It does need some minor stuff done to it. But for a 99 FRC THIS IS CLEAN, I need to Clay & Wax it.

                        Its TOUGH for a guy who busts ass all day & watch you guys all get new 5.0s. Im a CHEVY man for the most part. But do love Coupes. My point being is that life is going by & gas is going up. I might as well enjoy these long drives to get my little girl if I shell out at the pump.

                        SEB, that is a damn nice ride. I would love to get one in the future.
