I get low 30's on the highway (30-32) and low 20's when I thrash it around backroads. I think the onboard computer was saying 26.5 MPG average or something a few weeks back (I've done a lot of road-trip miles on this car though-- a thousand miles coming out from Colorado plus I've been up and down between SB and the bay area and SB and LA a bunch of times this summer). Highway mileage is pretty good for something NA and fun to drive IMHO. There are definitely more efficient engines out there, though. I think the N54 on my dad's 135 gets 28 highway or something if you drive it with a light foot, and that car makes about twice the power and almost 3x the torque of ours... Still, it's not bad. It still uses less gas than my GTI did.
