I think i'll go with an aftermarket system, like Alpine. Have used them before and cannot fault their ipod connectivity/interface.

Got 600kms out of a single tank over the weekend from Sydney > Hunter Valley and back. Averaged something like 7.5L/100 and that was giving it some stick every now and again

I got 690 on the way up to Canberra for GAF this year, and like you gave it some at times. Definately would have topped 700km should I have gone easy on the go pedal.

my WORST economy I have ever got is 7.2L/100 and that was a spirited drive through the hills!

got 6.8L/100 last half tank. Lets just say I don't baby it (acceleration wise, speed limits ARE adhered too as I like my licence too much)

Damn and i thought i did really well! Haha. I love that the car has got plenty of balls when i need it but can also be super economical. My coilovers DID NOT like some of the roads in the Hunter Valley though. Some atrocious stretches full of potholes that juggled my intestines.
