Bought 23 Nov and drove off 27 Nov with winter storm bearing down on Kansas & OK ... the center of my normal route back to NM. I understood the stock tires no good in cold ... but had zero trouble taking it easy -- break-in procedures followed to a T. During the entire 1500 miles, temps were in the 20-30 deg F range, but the constant driving I'm sure helped keep the rubber warm. Car has the Recaros -- Incredibly comfortable for 6' 185lbs -- very near best long term road comfort I've experienced in any vehicle. To avoid roughest weather, I routed from Mpls to North Platte NE. Spent night and continued on south the next day through western NE, KS, CO, and then NM. Incredibly no real precip the whole way .. freezing fog was the worst of it ... accumulated a neat little layer on nose of car, but never even needed to use the wipers! I experienced every type of pavement -- car always tracked solid, tires issued wide variety of sound but I guess to be expected. Did not use the Nav system much .. played with it a little, but I just didn't need much help ... only an average system based on my limited touch. If we're to believe the car's MPG calculator, I let it run for entire duration of trip and it was at 19.6 when I pulled in garage. Obviously, I had no chance to test the envelope of what the car is capable of like most of you, but it was clear to me these cars will readily test serious driving skills -- exactly what we're after! For me, the permagrin is just beginning -- what a ride!

Congrats on an amazing car I love my 2013 auto for 2 1/2 years so far.

Happy Holidays.
