Indeed, but it can only do so much when it comes to stop and go. But for cruising it’s a definite plus, and with tall gearing the highway mileage will be quite good.

But it’s the typical belief that all V-8s suck down gas, when most people are using that as an excuse to buy a new car. That said, I would most definitely wouldn’t mind one to replace the WRX wagon I have now in a few years.

But I just can’t imagine a huge market for it by the time it does hit the showroom.
