What is your gas mileage like?

[Manimillion]

96 Bmw 318ti Sport @ ~115,000 miles.

I am at around 26mpg w/ 87 Octane gas. This is combined highway and city driving.

What are you averaging?

[naustin]

Usually 29 average city/highway running premium fuel.
When i bought the car and drove it solely highway miles for a whole tank bringing it home i got 35 or 36. That was a happy day.
Edit: I'm a 97 with 135k on the odo

[LobsterMagnet]

35-37 w/ 87 octane 98 Civic lx @ 81,000 Miles

This will be long gone when I make the switch but I'm willing to take the hit to get into a ti.

[teetime4one]

all around driving nets me 29-32mpg

my average was always bad cause I shift late...just can't help it

Only put 55 miles on my car since I picked it up yesterday, so I can't say. In my Mirage the worst I saw was 27, best was 35. Usually averaged around 30 - 32. In my Cavalier I got 20-23 in the city, 26-27 on the highway (it was a 3-speed slushbox). Worst I ever saw with the Cavalier was 16 I think.

last ti i was getting about 25-38

all depending on the drive

[Manimillion]

Should I mention I only get 7.53mpg on my mustang, given that I don't get stuck in traffic?

And that is strictly 94 octane.

But it is worth every single drop of fuel!

me too

95 active w/124k, about 22mpg with 92 octane Shell V-Power (I swear by that stuff)

Getting about 300 miles per tank or roughly 22 miles to the gallon with mixed city/hwy. Recently replaced the thermostat which was stuck open so I'm hoping these numbers will increase through time.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The EPA MPG for the M42:

5-speed: 19 mpg city / 29 mpg hwy
auto: 18 mpg city / 26 mpg hwy

and for the M44:

5-speed: 20 mpg city / 30 mpg hwy
auto: 20 mpg city / 29 mpg hwy

I get a pretty consistent 24-25 mpg with my '95 M42 mixed suburb/hwy driving on 91 octane for the DINAN chip. How any of you get more than 30 mpg is beyond me. 32 mpg on a fluke may be believable, but there's no way 36 mpg is possible unless you are drafting a semi.

It's possible. I see you're using the new EPA numbers, which are a notch or two below the old ones. Just looked at the new numbers for my old Mirage, and they say 23/30. I routinely saw 28+ mpg in the city and 33-35mpg on the highway. Easily a good 30-31 combined, which is above the EPAs combined estimate of 25. It all depends on how you drive. Granny shift (I was upshifting in the 2000-2500 rpm range in the Mirage) and you can get pretty good mileage, which is nice with gas prices the way they are right now.

I spend most of my time on county roads.. long stretches without lights at an average speed of 50 to 55mph... the OBC currently says 31.5

Car also just hit 122551 miles.. I took a picture of it, but it is on my phone and I have yet to learn how to get it off of the phone (first phone I ever had with a camera)
