It's easy to get good gas mileage as long as you can stay out of the pedal (it is just too much damned fun to wind the car up to redline).

I did 600km with one and a half fueltank, I don't mind about how much fuel my car drink, but I think It's little high, but again as I said, I don't give a f***. haha

The car gets amazing highway mpg (35-40 with a MT), but as soon as you make a few stops it goes down to low 30's. Something about the transition area between mostly port to mostly direct fuel injection eats a lot of gas.

My life average is 25.2 mpg - best of 30.2. I'm happy with it.

I've been driving like I stole it and still getting over 26mpg.. mostly city and with snow tires fitted. Back to summers and I'm sure I'd be back up around 28-29 again without issue. More highway I'll be over 30mgp easy.

i drove over 1500 miles this weekend on a roadtrip, boston to miami. full cruise control drving between 70-80mph and got 31mpg. i think it could do better considering its only a 2.0

35-36 HWY wouldve been awesome, just my opinion

The FR-S isn't. The BRZ is though, cause it's not a Scion.

lol.. sarcasm?

On winter tires and winter gas I'm averaging between 27 and 28 MPG. It was 29-30 on summer tires and gas. I would expect the MT to do a bit better. C&D averaged 24 AT and 29 MT on summer tires.

mangostick · 02-03-2013, 10:07 PM

I think the primary reason the AT cars do better is the taller trans ratios. .. regardless a MT car should be capable of 30mgp easy.
