I've only had my '09 Lancer GTS since April, so it is still pretty new. I am averaging between 24 & 27 in the city. Each time I fill gas, it goes up a little bit. Can't wait 'till it's broken in so I get even more.

My 60 mile trip home with the brand new car from NJ last night averaged me at 32.7 mpg. I drove aroudn 65mph average. Cant wait for some of those bolt ons to see how high it will go Certainly more than my 03 lancer. After i took the turbo off the walbro 255lph and the FMU were still in the car, i swear i was getting like 20mpg max haha

The highest MPG I have gotten was 30, but I usually average around 27mpg. I'm thinking of buying some very light-weight 17" rims to get even better gas mileage!

I get between 23-28 mixed city and highway depending on how recently i changed the oil or cleaned my filter or how wildly i drove that week. On pure highway I got 38.6.
