Man I see 19 and 20 sometimes, best of 23. 3000 miles on the car. S1 since 800 miles. Hope it loosens up soon, they way I drive it though, it should sure as heck be loose now. LOL

My GT got 20 mpg when I first got it and was still breaking it in, I am sure I don't get that anymore since I can't take off with out a heavy foot no matter how hard I try.

This debate goes on at just about every car forum I have ever visited. Some people get 50 mpg some get 10. The reality is always somewhere in between, usually pretty close to what the window sticker says.
