i just thought i'd share my personal best mpg!! i was stoked - 23.7mpg!!!!! i hit 330 miles on the odo. i've never broken 300 before. maybe the epa rating of 24 IS possible!! my previous record was 21.6mpg.

it was about 98% highway, and of that it was about 90% cruise control between 65 and 70. i was TRYING to get a record mpg, so i wasn't driving like i normally do - no downshifts to 3rd or 4th to pass on the highway! i was driving from austin to dallas, and i ended up making it back down to waco in one tank. i think i could have broken 24mpg if i didn't have: a second person in the car, ac on constantly, the golf clubs, and all the other weekend stuff we had loaded up in the trunk.

anyway, just thought i'd share.

My highway best was about 23.3 or 10.1 litres/100km

Good Job .........

I 've never gotten to 300 in a full tank , so thats good. I stop trying , it take the fun out of driving the car.

Dam, that's good to know..

The best I've gotten was 270, but I've never purposefully tried for a high mpg..

I hit 320 going to Florida but that was pushing it. i guess i need to do the 2 cycle oil mix too bad i found out after the trip

340 once, but I have an AT and that was when I was "cruising" at about 100mph (which is 4k rpm in 6th gear) back from where ever speeddemon's house was I cant remember........

only had mine since february so I am still having "fun"... once I am done with that, i will do a mpg run and see what I can do. I am heading to florida from michigan in february.. might be the perfect time to do it.

i agree, it definitely takes the fun out of driving it. i only "try" or worry about mileage when i'm doing a longer trip like that - driving on a boring highway like I35 isn't fun no matter what, so i might as well try to get the best fuel economy i can!!
