The driving excitement is there...... but the vehicle is best for Highway Daily driving. City driving will guzzle the tank quickly even without acceleration.
My wife drives the G8 and accelerate quite conservatively. I may drive that vehicle once a month, but when I do, I know that I burn the fuel up babyyyyyyyy! Justifiable. I gave up my Trans Am for her G8. Have to work out the agression some how.
Besides, I also have a new Trans Am that I drive once a month that I also burn the gunk out of the engine big time as I step on it. I have 3 V8 in my family and drive my 4 cylinder Saturn daily..... 8 mile round trip to work where I fill up once every 3 weeks.

How much and how often are you and your wife spending each fill up? And, what do you think avg gas mileage is as a daily driver? I know there are lots of factors to take into consideration but ball park numbers would be great...
Thanks in advance,
