The way I drive, I've never even come close to posted milage. I am resolved to the fact that I'm going to get terrible milage. If I were that concerned about milage, I'd get an Insight or Prius.
AMEN BROTHER!!! Can i get a witness! I don't understand how people can complain about low gas mileage, no sunroof, ride quality, short tire life, only a 3yr/36,000mile warrantee, etc when talking about this car. If these things bother you then this AIN'T the car for you. Now if you want a Japanese fire breathing, Low gas mileage getting, hard riding, Soft sticky tire destroying street monster sports car that happens to have 4 doors....well this is the car for you. MY gas mileage is gonna be horrible....I'm gonna go through tires like milk through a cat....the warrantee will be worthless within the year and I'm gonna love every minute of it!

I couldnt give a rats a*@ about gas mileage since I have lived in a part of the world where gas is 4 times as much as In the US, but I was merely curious that your highway dudes could get a good reading because of the extra 500cc and being able to lug around on highway in 6th gear.

Although I agree that fuel economy wasn't a #1 concern when I got my WRX and won't be if I get the STi, it still played a small role. I wanted a vehicle that had 4 wheel drive and wasn't a gas-guzzling SUV. Compared to the SUV's out there, the entire Impreza line is fuel miserly :lol: I wanted to be able to go anywhere...AND park anywhere! If you're concerned about fuel economy then yeah get a hybrid, I'd go for the Civic hybrid, even the regular Civic gets great fuel economy! If you still want the STi, then use it as a weekender and lend it to me as a weekly driver :wink:
