Not that I have a 3rd gen car, but I only get 13mpg, and I wasn't even driving it hard! I get about 260 miles per tank. Drains gas, drains my wallet.

depends on where you drive, how you drive, what kindof gas you use, engine setup, drivetrain...

My Z28 would only dream of 21mpg. Anyone use premium or whatever 93 octane is? I use regular.

i'm gonna have to run premium after i get her fired up... because my compression ratio is prolly gonna be higher than the stock 10:1 because of the mods i got on her...
