  1. With a standard stereo, there is a cable leading to the stereo that constantly gives it power even when car is off, like to keep memory settings, and the clock settings as well as your audio settings are any of the other settings messed up as well? or only the audio settings? Did you figure it out yet?

  3. 2006 350z vs crotch rocket = 157mph on a bumpy @$$ texas interstate (I beat the crotch rocket, probably cuz the guy was not wearing a helmet, and I doubt he could see) Back Passenger on a Honda Blackbird CBR 1100 = 155mph
  4. I would love to be getting those kinds of averages. I just drove 30 miles after getting it back and went and topped it off. I put in 1.502 gallons..... so i pretty much got 20mpg... Let see what happens when i drive 150 miles. I dont mind that the estimates are a joke, which Lexus said they are bs... but every car i have ever driven has gotten better than the city, usually inbetween the two numbers. Like i said before the 350z averaged 20-24 in 40% highway 60% city driving. My 97 civic didnt start getting below the city average until 150k+ miles
  5. I first want to start off and say if this is posted somewhere, I am sorry for reposting this question. The site would not let me search. This said, I recently purchased a used 2003 GS300 with 42,000 miles on it. I have been averaging 14.9 mpg - 16.9mpg. This is with 60% driving city and 40% highway. The EPA suggests 18mpg city and 25 highway. I should be averaging around 20mpg. I took my car into the Lexus Dealership where I purchased it, and they kept it for 2 days, testing it on the machines, and supposedly filled it up, drove 41 miles, and put 2 gallons back in it. Therefore getting 20.5 mpg. During this time they loaned me a ES350 (EPA 21 city 30 highway) which I have been driving twice as aggresive as I do my own. I have been driving it 75% non aggresive but 25% aggresively flooring it, and accelerating harder than in my own and I am averaging 21.5 mpg. HOW the hell does this happen? I traded in a 2006 350Z which has 19city and 26 highway. I drover car the same 60% city 40% highway and averaged 21-24 mpg when driving non aggressive, and 18-20mpg when driving more aggresively. When I drove it completely messing around, power sliding, racing, highway speeds at 90+ I would STILL GET 17mpg, Which is MUCH better than the GS300 getting 14.9mpg when I am driving barely aggresive. (before anyone says anything about my racing, power sliding, and 90+ highway speeds, understand this is this reason I got rid of the 350Z and got the GS300) Has anyone else had this same issue? or Should i just accept getting crap for gas milage?
