2800 Miles on my C2. It seems to feel sluggish at takeoffs now.

    Don't get me wrong this car wasn't a speed demon anyways, but now it seems like it takes a little more throttle to get going. It could be bad gas or something, I'm not sure. Ive only had it 2 months. Would it hurt to put a fuel treatment through it? Anybody else experiencing a slight sluggish feel then what you were use to when you bought it?

    No but doesn't mean you aren't experiencing something.
    Only question: Have you always driven in Eco Mode as it requires a little more throttle in Eco to get going? If you've only started to use Eco lately then there will be a difference in throttle response. I did not use Eco for the first couple months and it was a slightly difference feel when I switched it on.
    YMMV

    I have a bit over 3000 miles and I haven't noticed a difference. But, like the above poster, I have always driven in Eco Mode.
