Just a mental log, the VSC has to be turned off every time you start the car. It doesn't stay ON/OFF like the PWR. There were days I forgot to turn the VSC off so the log wasn't that accurate. I always reset my ODO when I fill up and I usually get around 330 miles per tank and this time I got 350 miles per tank.

I keep it on (plus it's a PITA to press a button every time I start the car..first world issues I know hah).
But it's probably come in handy more times than I can count -- in the limited snow we had this past few months in Texas, it definitely made the car much more controllable than when it went off in snow. With it OFF, I would just fish tail or slip and slide. With it ON, it probably saved me from doing a 180 and sliding out in turns in snow AND careless turns in rain.
If think personally if my GS did not have VSC I would have probably driven like a granny in rain even more so, or crashed it by now...I can't imagine driving a RWD without it now (almost)!
I clocked 0-60mph with VSC ON in 5.8 seconds last Saturday, so I'd say it probably doesn't 'interfere' much unless you're asking for it with low traction situations.

Thanks.
