really ? that really good i get like 19/21 on my IS but gas prices are just too high now it doesn even matter how much we are gettin to the gallon anymore
I have a modded WRX and I definitely don't shy away from the boost, and I still manage to get at least 22 (usually 24) mpg 75% city 25% hwy, and I got 28mpg highway on a straight trip.

its pretty funny you can afford a lexus or an sti but not the gas. get a hybrid unless you get a smaller engine your going to be getting the same or less gas mileage

Now that it's summer, I drive my Supra a lot more... ****ty gas mileage. But I don't care- give me the best gas money can buy!
But in my Corolla I bitch and whine about the damn gas 87 oct, no name brand... LOL

i thought you were selling your IS for college?.....so why buy a more expensive higher insurance rate of a car?....use your head, sometimes its not all about who has the fastest car...hence why i drive a sentra....87 octane FTW!....
you suckers with your 93 octane, and your turbos....and awd............god dammit! :(

My SAAB gets 20 and I never drive on the highway, on the highway it does 30. My friend with a STi was bitching about his mileage saying he got like 12, but it was modded.

Fixed for ya. :-p
I'm kinda surprise that some of you guys are getting that kinda of mpg...in a bad way. I thought you guys get way better then that.

well i live 2 miles from where i work and its all stop and go (every damn block) and i'll get about 20mpg
went to ocmd a lil bit ago and had the crusie set at 85 most of the way and manged to get 30mpg
on boost its diffrent story but she is still running fat and happy so that doesn't help

Subarus really aren't the most efficient 4 bangers.

I hope you realize I'm just kidding. The Camaro is quick but nothing a bad MPG getting 4 banger with a turdblow can't handle.

at least i don't feel bad for my gto....but i didn't buy the gto for gas mileage.
I'm pushing 5xxrwhp and getting 24.5 on highway (75mph out of boost) and down to 9 to 10 with my iron foot:lol:

I was getting 29 mpg on my swapped wrx Rs driving it not hitting boost and keeping it in the highest gear possible. I did get on it here and there to merge on 76 and stuff. Other then that I'm seeing mid 20's everyday driving and I don't even wanna know what I get when I take it out and beat the hell out of it.
