for a toyota sports car, im happy with 30-40... if you drive it like a grandpa u will get 40 -- if u have fun with it its still around 30 plus or minus - i find myself driving alot because of the great mpgs... + its a respectable sports car - slowly becoming one.  |
this is true! if ya drive it as a conventional point a to point b vehicle,without "thrashing" it,you should see a much better return!
