It's in the multifunction gage to the right of the tach. Fantastic feature - you can also pull up screens for vehicle info, trip computer, nav, sound channels or chronometer. Just toggle the stalk on the lower rhs of the steering wheel.

1.2 g's is just ridiculous for a 4,300 lb. car. Credit the PDCC and the Michelin's. Maybe could pull a bit more with Super Sports.

Didn't think that was necessary. Do you have the multifunction gage, but not the G-meter?

Wow, that is awesome. My commute, unfortunately, has a bit more traffic than yours it seems.

Nonsense! You can get all three of those in about a few hundred feet.

Just time it better...

Cool feature, and nice pulls =) Now I know why you are such a fan of the stop-go feature. As is seen in the picture, with your driving style it is never on.

Our cars are too old. It is the updated pcm that was first seen in turbo s. I begged my workshop to update the software, but they said its newer hardware.
