[QUOTE="Fastlane Cobra, post: 9849804, member: 3212"] I bought a 2011 V6 to use as a daily driver. It replaces my 35 MPG 2008 Focus so fuel economy was really important. In this case I did not upgrade to the 3.31 gears so it has the stock 2.73 rear gear ratio. Has anyone driven both? Is there a big difference in the feel of power or does the 3.31 gear car seem to take off faster? I bought the 6 speed manual and as advertised it should get 30 MPG. I can only assume that 2.73 gears helps the fuel economy more so than the 3.31s. I expect the car to arrive next week. I am driving my 03 cobra daily now and ready to play with my new toy. I hope this 2011 V6 is not a big mistake. I could get a 2010 GT for a few thousand cheaper. Fuel economy would annoy me I am sure on a 2010 GT. THOUGHTS before I take delivery. 2011 V6 Grabber blue coupe, nav/electronics package, security package, comfort package (heated seats etc), 6 speed manual, pony package (cosmetic/appearance), HID lights, extended overseas warranty 7year/75,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty, and shipping to Germany $31K [/QUOTE]
