I have a 5-speed 1996 v-6 Mustang that gets me about 26-27 mpg on the highway.

 

Not exactly sure, but I would estimate 23-25 mpg based on motor type, gear ratio & weight of the car.

Not to go OT but I would HIGHLY recommend the new model Dodge Neon, either standard, SXT or R/T (Even better, the SRT-4). They all have an incredible amount of power & gas milage in the 30-32mpg range. My girlfriend has one & I would trade every car I have ever owned (except my pride & joy 67) for one.

 

Thanks. All recommendations are welcome. I'm sure there are other good cars available that I have not even thought about yet. I personally don't like Neon's, but I have read good things about them, and I won't be the one driving it anyway. We'll be sure to look at one.

 

25-28 MPG at 85 MPH 30-32 at 65.

About 21 around town. It's a 96 with a 5 speed.

Its still fun.

Had a few recall items that were taken care of nicely, but I love the car.

take a look at newer jettas , especially the vr6's. they are comfortable, handle well, get good mileage, and they have some pretty good pop. i had a friend who bought one, put an exhaust , intake, and a chip in it... he would smoke 5/0's all the time haha. and on the freeway it had never ending top end.im surprised at what those things can do .

 

I had two jettas, beware!
