What a great car !

Just got back from a month in Ft. Myers, Florida and was somewhat concerned about driving a 22 year old car for this trip. Went about total of 4,000 miles...1200 each way and drove about 1500 miles, mostly stop and go with some highway while in Ft. Myers. Averaged just about 21 mpg for the entire trip and used 1 quart of oil.....not bad. Car performed beautifully and no problem cruising at 75-85mph even in rain. We took the car because we just turned in my wife's leased SRX. Heck the 380 held just as much luggage as the SRX! It s hard for me to get excited about replacing her SRX because I know there is no new car out there,( that I can afford) that is as tight, quiet and gives the satisfaction the W126 does.
