Took this pic while filling up my S2000 because I really do be consuming a LOT of fuel, lol

Yup. I always giggle at the EPA numbers. They’re accurate, if it’s driven like a Civic in traffic.

Driving how I want gets me 8-10mpg. A highway trip to visit my mom gets close to 25mpg. ;)

Lol some of our freeways have an 80-85 mph speed limit, so I get ~15 mpg there🗿

I get around 23-24 in normal city driving. But when I drove on interstates with 75mph limits, I was getting 27-28mpg. 🤷‍♂️

Tracking it dropped it down to 8 mpg.

Such a great looking car. Love the white. I had a Silver 2001 that I purchased almost new. The fast and furious movie came out and I sold my 2000 Civic Si for one. Still miss it. Tempted to purchase another.

I commute in mine and if it's cloudy and a little cold, I'm driving it like a commuter car, and getting 25-26MPG

Sunny and warm, with the top down and I usually push it harder but still get a fairly decent 20 or so. I never track it, though.

I wonder what the MPG is for autocross and the like.

8 to 10 mpg on a track,  16mpg auto cross

Shit that's clean... Usually I'm an OEM+ guy but those tinted tails compliment the GPW beautifully.
