So you can be disappointed in the Z's mpg, but there's no disappointment if you compare it to the Boxster mpg.
good point..

.and did you see the Boxter interior? The one I saw looked like 1950 all over again....with that gaudy red leather..

The only thing that car has that we don't have is the prestigious name ...If our Z had the Porsche badge...people would pay $20,000 for it and a lot more for maintenance....and look down their noses at us as they drove by..IMO
