I'm soooo confused. Are these the numbers for the 2008 coupe? If so they should have used the different engine and tranny specs rather than just the current ones.

Of course. Have *you* ever gotten 25mpg? I haven't. I have gotten as close as 22.8, however. Mine is 6MT, so it's a tad different, but the '03 6MT is rated 19/26.

I can get a strong 27MPG, near 28 on a long trip running 65-85MPH... I have gotten well into 28 at a 75MPH cruise for 300 miles... It can be done; keep good 93 (or higher) octane fuel, synthetic lubricants and tires properly inflated. Could probably get more but I do pass and have some fun on the freeway which must bring it down somewhat.
