I thought this would be a little interesting, this is going off of my unlocked DIS Average Consumer MPG read out. Currently Im getting 20.4 mpg. I was getting around 21.2 before my CEL came on, it ended up being a swirl valve, but during that time my MPG was dropping and got down to 19.2 Im curious what everyone else out in the MS3 world is getting! I mostly drive just around town, not on the freeway too much. (blowup)
 
My first 3 tankfuls registered 26.5mpg on the unlocked DIS (the computer is off by 2mpg by my calculations). Now that fuel is $3.25 or higher here in Oklahoma I'm driving even slower and the DIS says I'm getting 28.5 on the current tank.

Most of my driving is highway and I consider my driving style 'spritited'. Each tank has several sprints into triple digits.

I'm very pleased with the fuel mileage so far. It's meeting or exceeding what was posted on the window sticker. Kudos to Mazda for honest figures.
 
I average about 12l/100km or 20mpg. I do a fair amount of city driving but i still was hoping for better
 
Im gettin around 20MPG with the CAI, but I do all city driving pretty much, tons of stop lights, and I am not sure if it will help, but I haven't reset my ECU since the CAI install, so I am going to try that and see if it helps out.
 
Computer says I'm getting 33.5 on the freeway. In the real world I can get 30 to 32 easily all freeway if I can stay away from the 6th to 3rd downshifts at 55 and hammer on it on an open road. Yee Haa Cooter this car is fun

25ish mpg on average. See the link in my sig.


Interesting link I take it thats your car? I like to hear what the local forum peeps are getting, seems more real to me than window stickers lol. So I went on a little road trip on mothers day and drove 2hrs on the freeway, raised my Mpg to 20.7 now :) and I took it up to 140mph during that time (five-0) , so pretty good, I guess I just drive in the city too much! If theres any indication my average speed is 21mph lol

My average speed is 29. So yeah, I mostly drive in town. I almost always get 21mpg. I probably waste more gas from the stoplights than I need to ;)
