I have 19,500 miles (2003 touring 5AT) and I'm getting about 20.2 and have been ever since December. During the Fall when I got the car, I got up to 21.0 but it's mostly in the 20's. And this is majority city driving.

03 Track. Almost entirely sub-40mph city driving. ~17mpg

If I hop on the freeway it jumps to ~25mpg.

Glad I'm not the only one getting sub 17's. I've been getting 16.4 consistently the last month. I am all city driving though. I blame the low mileage on So. Cal. freeways and morning commutes.

Usually on the streets, with granny shifting, I'd get around 32 and on highways driving 80ish I'd get about 29, but for some reason driving within 70-80 I'd average 24.... weird! Btw I know a couple of people in Cerritos /w Z's

Here.. i use www.losangelesgasprices.com 's fuel logbook since i got my car in march 03. yes i'm an internet junkie and i waste time on this crap... lol ...
here's a graph that u can get if you enter all your fuel purchases..
the only time i got more than 21mpg was when i took a road trip to san diego and did 75mph all the way... other than that i drive 60% freeway and 40% streets

I get around 28 on the highway, 21 with mixed city/highway, and 6 on the track (Blackhawk Farms is my worst mpg ever, if anyone cares).

I reseted the mpg gauge on the way home tonight. After the first mile it read 44mpg crusing at 62mph . Then it kept going down and down and down . Average at 26mpg on highway driving

The best I can do in the traffic I drive in is about 21mpg and thats pissing alot of drivers off with slow acceleration and rolling instead of stopping in the stop and go parts. If I drive the way I want and forget about the gas I get about 16 mpg. To me its worth it right now to enjoy the car even though it will cost me an extra $15-20 I spend a month driving bad.
