Secondly, the freeway is the only place where the 8-speed auto will (theoretically) lead to better gas mileage due to its longer gearing.
I Agree... My friend has a Lexus IS-F with an 8 Speed auto and it gets much better mileage on the highway.... he gets around 21-22 mpg which is pretty good considering its a V8 engine... i am sure the tranny makes a huge difference
