Mine is horrible, unfortunately I do a lot of city driving since I live about 10 minutes from work and 15 from school (my main travel areas). Good news is that it's finally nice enough out to ride so le crotch rocket is coming out a lot more.

On the way to Cedar Point I got 27 mpg with all my mods except the gears.
On the way to Gatlinburg I got 24 mpg with all my mods and gears.
As for city driving I don’t know I can’t keep my foot out long enough to calculate the mileage.

98 GT Conv 5 Spd running 87 Octane

Here's my fill-up chart. I like to log my gas milage so that I know when and how I get my best gas milage. I bought the car Dec 7th, so there's a whole month missing there.



This is about a 16-17mpg average.

I used to keep track (For about 2 years) but then the mileage got depressing... so I stopped.


I remember 18 MPG.

Your lucky. Last week I got about 280 miles on 21.4 gallons. Cost $49 to fill up my Lightning. If I haven't dumped so much money on this thing, I would of sold it long ago.

Oh ya, it needs 93 oct.

i'll need to get gas today or tomorrow, depending how much driving i do and i put 20 bucks in on wednesday (friday now). Speedo/odo runs fast (410 gears) and it shows just over 110miles and its near empty. I figure i'll get 135 when i put another 20 in. I figure about 14 mpg. Its strange because this time i've been shifting REALLY low and just puttin. I have floored it a couple times, but not much. Its killin me I put 80 bucks in last week and went about 375 miles.
