i'll end my part here, because this is obviously an argument that will continue until the end of time (or until you get an si)...
yes, you get better gas mileage on cheaper fuel. i have a more powerful car that gets just a few mpg less.
i never said my si is 'crazy fast', so i don't know where you got that from, but i will say that i don't care about 0-60 times... i'm into auto-x and road racing, and the si covers well more than 1.2 seconds better on road courses than your r18...
the problem with this debate is that those with r18s are going to justify their decisions in any way possible, which is fine by me... the problem is that what should be happening is that you should enjoy your car, as i enjoy mine.... understand that the si was made as a superior car in every performance dimension imaginable, and that's just how it is.
i bet if you go to a vette forum you don't have base owners saying how much better their cars are to the z06 owners...
