MPG
MPG... hmmmm. I think people always exaggerate their MPGs. There is NO way someone with a 3.2 is averaging 25 (which I read last month)...
I think it would be better for people to share how many miles they get from a full tank. and then explain their driving.
ie: I get 300 miles
I think the 2.0T tank is 13.5 or 14.5 gallons.
3/4 city
1/4 highway
If I drive all hwy, I can get close to 400 miles on 1 tank.

That person you are referring to might be me. I do average 25mpg
And no, I don't go by the computer readout. I calculate (Miles driven / gallons filled)
- 350-360 miles on tank (with 1/2 gal. remaining; 14.5 gallon tank)
- I've gotten as much as 380 on a tank without running out of gas.
- 120 mile/day commute (1/4 stop/go and 3/4highway)
- Average 43-47mph (highway speeds 65-75mph)
- All-season tires

with my HPA turbo on it, i average 27 in mixed driving, ....
27 mpg is damn good for all my mad powa, and my go go fun driving style.
pure interstate, gas station to station, i have seen 34mpg!!
that's with 370-380 bhp!
(<i>this is with higher flow injectors than stock.
and mpg numbers are manually calculated, not from computer display.</i>)
now then, .... if i'm deep in the throttle, though, i can almost see the tank indicator needle moving

Im lucky to get 20mpg
Best Ive ever done is 24mpg but usually 18-21.
I drive backroads from work averaging 35mph (trust me this is fast for the roads I am driving). On the way to work I take the parkway which I tend to get better mpg since the avg speed on the parkway is around 55mph.
Its a 25 minute commute over 15 miles about.
I owuld imagine that over a longer drive I would get better mpg but the sticker say 27 and I doubt I will ever see that number.
I get 250 miles to the tank very consistently.
