MKIII Gas Mileage?!

Poodles · 09-08-2005, 03:40 AM

my owners manual recommends premium with a minimum of medium grade...

Anyways, like I said, if you're paying a lot, just enjoy the drive more

They don't get the greatest gas mileage, but it is a performance car (no, a civic is not a performance car), so it's going to suck fuel when you floor it, which is hard to do in a car this fun, and that makes such a great sound when it's floored...

My mom has a Geo Metro 3 cylinder (LOL), Yeah, I've driven it, it's a perky car...if you don't weigh much, and you never have anyone or anything in the car with you, and it gets in the 30's....

must suck having gas that high. Im paying only 80 cents a gallon here in kuwait so gas mileage isn't that critical for me but I get between 15 to 17 mpg at best with an 87 NA and thats with Unleaded Super 95 octane. My
BMW 750il gets around 13-14 with a V12 and lotsa power (wifes car), next time home to Phoenix is gonna suck big time if the gas prices stay the same.
