Uh, it will vary tremendously. Some get around 35, others get a shitload less. It all depends on how well your car runs and how well it was taken care of.

also depends on what type of driving you do. When I went to HS and just drove in town from home to school to work, I got about 26 mpg and now driving to college on I-94 I get nearly 33 mpg

When I said 'a lot' what I meant was greater than 32 at all times. On the freeway...whoa, it shoots way up to about 38

it's paid for

I get 31.6 average . . . that's combined city & highway . . . on the highway I rarely go less than 70 . . .

. . . why should anyone go less than 70?

EPA listed 25 city/30 highway for the 88-89 EFI cars. I usually get 32 combined up to 36-38 highway; sightly worse in the winter.

in goofey canuk terms i get roughly 6L/100KM

isn't that wierd how our fuel consumption is listed? i think it sucks! why not just stay similar to mpg with km per L or something like that!?:rant:

. . . i go about 600km to a 60-Litre tank, what that is in mpg i have no idea.

600 Kilometers equals 372.823 Miles (statute)

60 Liters equals 15.8503 Gallons (US)

mpg = ~42.45 miles per gallon

I went here to do the conversion: http://www.sciencemadesimple.net/conversions.html
