Nice pickup, I never seen that combo as well (NFR w/ tan seats). And for the 4k RPM at 75mph, that's pretty much good/great gas mileage for the s2000 on the freeway (since we rev 8k-9k max).

OK, not trying to jack the OPs thread but I am a bit biased to NFR + tan.

NFR + tan actually looks really nice.

one thing though, i am a bit disappointed that the engine spins at 4k when I cruise at 75mph. that's a bit high and not too kind on mpg. it is my daily driver afterall.

31 MPG on cruise control on several stretches of my recent road trip @ 75 @ 4000RPM.

Seems pretty good to me. It's a high revving engine. 4K, while high for a Camry, isn't for the S.

On the other hand, city driving, frequently hitting VTEC and frequently going WOT (no thanks to a Fujita F5 in my case) will truly kill your MPG. I get about 18-21 in the city.
