Economy isn't a big concern, as I have other cars I can drive if I'm taking longer trips or want to save gas. I just wanted to get a feeling for what I can expect if I'm really light on the pedal. In reality, I know that I will be driving the car like it's meant to be 80% of the time!

I have my 2013 Nismo with NO Bose system as well as 2 more at the Local Lexington SC Nissan dealer with No bose system.... The magazines and everything made it sound this way but it is a 1400 option as well as the Backup camera (only 2 big options for the Nismo in 2013)
ah thanks for the correction. in that case, glad its not standard still!

After I shave 300 pounds off I should be getting around 30 mpg at 70-75 mph

Amen brother! When I found out it wasn't standard I was sooo relieved!
Got mine with a backup camera as that's the only other option... Bose equals crappy upgraded system and extra weight with the 2 subs! Blah blah crap
