You are correct about 22.5 mpg but I think it's highway because my STI didn't have the gas guzzler tax and it's rated at 23 highway:

This week with regular driving I'm averaging 18 mpg... Thats several miles of street driving and 70 to 80 miles of round trip commute 5 days a week.... Mixed highway speeds and sitting in traffic.
If I'm on the gas a lot I get around 16 to 17 mpg. If I try to hyper mile... The best mpg i got on a full tank was 22mpg with this commute... But that was just agonizing |

Revival of the dead...
Moved from West Coast where I was getting 17.X mpg consistently, and now supposedly getting 8.X mpg on the East Coast (all city traffic light to traffic light). Contemplating getting a frikkin Prius.

I steadily seem to get ~240 miles out of a tank if my car's "miles left to E" estimate is correct. I like to rev it....a lot, but I'm very very weary of getting anywhere near redline. I THOUGHT (as a terribly inexperienced driver) that RPM of 2,250-3,500 would give me best gas milage, am I terribly wrong? These engines seem to love high RPM. |

I average around 17 mpg and this is just commuting 50 miles to DTLA and back. Mix of stop and go traffic and no traffic

Display says I average 13.5, but using the fill up gallons divided by odometer method, I really get 12-13 mpg. Most of my driving is commuting stop light to stop light with a few blasts to 6-7k every now and then (not often enough).
