new '12 owner, blu by u from 8thciv

[waltah]

some folks may know me from 8thciv as blu by u. found out a couple weeks ago that we will be moving and traveling a bit (great career opportunity) so our SUV had to go. I'm picking up a white/tan '12 EX sedan (roof, bluetooth, etc.)tomorrow afternoon.

Looking forward to the 39MPG highway, thats for sure! The jeep was getting 16MPG , lol. Ill miss the HEMI and all the luxury but we still have the 07 TL-S 6MT for that.

what MPG is everyone getting on the highway with the EX models?

p.s. - this forum layout is kind of lame compared to 8thciv. ill try to get used to it

Welcome to the site.

Just wait til you hang out more here, 8th is zeh lame sauce when you're used to the tight knit community here.

i enjoyed 8thciv but it got too "fanboi" for my taste. tons of haters of other makes/models on there. hope its a bit different here.

love a-zine as well.

It took a while for me, but eventually I learned to tolerate it.

Welcome!

haha, from the old school indeed. i remember posting pics of my 06 Si still in shipping plastic!!

i tried looking around for MPG threads but didnt see any. couple google searches show in the 40's as well. thats awesome, IMO

Welcome to the site dude!

a.ultimo who has an ex coupe who is also on this site gets up to 41 highway, I think he said he averages 39-41.

We get 27.9 on our Si with 75% city 25% highway.
