Default Re: Normal engine rpm

Not sure what you expected for fuel mileage with this car. Nearly everyone gets close to the EPA rating for these cars. That would be 21 City/28 Hwy. My 07 with Auto-Stick averaged 24.2 last year for all combined driving, and has averaged 23.6 since I bought it in 4Q/2008. On the long trips I've taken in the car, I'm probably getting around 26 mpg. And during these long trips, I'm usually 'enjoying' the car. So I figure a couple of mpg below EPA Hwy rating isn't all that bad.

These are great, little, performance 2-seaters that get fairly good gas mileage considering. But they're not 30 mpg commuters! MHO

Good 'heads-up' by pizzaguy on where to place your post. Makes it easier for you to get the feedback you're looking for and also makes it easier for the rest of us to find your thread if similar issue surfaces. Troubleshooting in this case are for problems that arise on The Forum itself, not with our cars.
