Yep, It seems a little high. Me too. rolleyes.gif Too bad they didn't have another gear. I six speed would really be very cool.

Ditto... I hate the fact we can't "cruise" at 80MPH... 4K RPM is NOT cruising... :\

sounds about right,...my mom has a 5sfe in her camry, and 60 mph is right around 3k
im just under 3k when im doing 100kmh (pretty damn close to 60mph). Yesterday was brutal, i had to drive 3 hours home from my buddies cottage with my tiny muffler going 110km/h the whole way. Next project, sound proof my trunk.
that is very typical for a GT

the ST on the other hand is much different

my st205 swapandour Beams swap
I guess that's where GT's *not-so-good* mpg average comes from
In my 97 GT (auto though) at 60 I'm only around 2300 rpms, I don't hit 3000 rpms until I get up around 75 or so

We shall show mercy, but we shall not ask for it.
my ST does that too. is that normal for an ST also?
