The Q60... not my cup of tea. To be honest, I probably won't be giving any more of my money to Nissan. I've been going back and forth between the Mustang and M235i. They drive how I like, offer the features I want, look nice (subjective) and offer quite a lot of value.
Kathy wanted a BMW but was focused on the mileage so we got a 228ix. It is plenty quick for her and I even enjoy driving it. I tried to talk her into the 235 or the M235, but she didn't need that much engine. Good luck with whatever you get.

The N20 is awesome.

The N55 gets great mileage, too, though. I averaged 34 mpg on my recent trip to NYC, which included a lot of city driving. I can do ~38 mpg on the highway if the conditions are right (relatively flat roads and sub 75mph cruise.)

BTW, what are you going to be driving at ZDayZ?

I'll be taking the Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk down. I'll have the winch available so I can be the official "ZDAYZ rescue vehicle" .

I do plan on going down early and finding an off-road park (Gatlinberg possibly) for a day trip to have some off-road fun. Hanging out and enjoying the event will be different without a Z for the hot runs, but I'll have fun regardless. I have not decided what day I'm coming down. I have the room for the week, so I'll figure it out soon.

I guess I have to move up to take your place in line during the morning runs now.

I'll hand over the great view I had of Mike getting smaller... LOL

I was keeping up with him better last year after my suspension mods, but I think he has been changing his setup since last year and I expect he'll be faster still again.

But the Jeep does have a "Sport" setting, so maybe I'll try to keep up.

You can probably take a short cut.
