I'm glad someone brought this up because this is one of the features I actually dislike. When the car downshifts, I assume that will worsen my gas mileage, no? I actually tried to disable the downshifting by putting the car in manual (8th gear), but cruise control doesn't work in manual apparently. I'm a "momentum" driver if that makes sense, so I feel like some of that is lost when cruising through mild hills and valleys with this feature.

16 to 27, i'm already at 3...either i'm going to end up spending too much money, or i'm going have a lot of fun with cars lol. i'm already planning the next one sometime in the next 5 years to be an S2000 or current gen Z4, depending on how much money I'm making (this will be a side car, all other 3 cars have been primary)
June will be complete my 2nd year with the GS. Will keep it around 6 years this time. We'll see what the 5th gen GS brings or will try something new.
