Hmmm... I have never gotten worse than 19 and mostly get 21-22 with avergae driving 50% highway and 50% city. Autocrossing drops it to GPM instead of MPG. I just drove to York PA this weekend and back and it got 24-26. Coupe 6MT

True, but I've been here a little longer than you

3.5 years vs. 3.5 hours!

There has to be an incremental increase in MPG because of lower parasitic losses with a manual. In a G the MPG is directly related to the pressure from the right appendage.

When gas was $3.40 a gal, I drove a tank "granny-shifting" and got 24MPG.
