one thing I hate about the S is downshifting to get power. I don't mind doing the 4th to 3rd thing but 2 gears is still too much. I can't even imagine the 6th-5th-4th-3rd-2nd omg.

And I don't skip gears, thats my my tranny has no issues. From what others have said, skipping gears will eventually lose you that gear.

Well my truck just got 380km in a full tank of gas, and I ran that thing to the near bottom. Mostly city... That thing is hopeless for gas mileage! Good thing about it is, I just put $25 bucks in and its over half already.
