It's about 2 mpg less than my IS350 and about 3 mpg less than my ES300. The 7th gear kicks in at around 40 mph and 8th gear kicks in around 45 mph. When it kicks in, it's barely above idle - I think it's running like 1200-1300 rpm. At 60, it's baredly doing 1600 rpm.
Good info. Thanks - can either of you comment on the Mark Levinson stereo system vs the Logic system on the BMWs?
