i bought an 06 convertible gt turbo 5 speed a couple of weeks ago. it had 500 miles on it and i got it for $13,500 from a dealer in minneapolis.

love the car but wish it got better mileage. 24.5 on the highway and 20ish in town but it's cold here. it should improve.

drafthorse, welcome to the Forum. With that kind of mileage, you are getting much better than most on here. Be glad that it is that good.

Drafthorse,
Welcome to the forum!
I got my GT vert last year, used, in California.
Most of those "who know", say that the engine won't be broken in for getting better gas mileage until around 20K.
