i would get the same mileage if i drove it right with the 5 spd.

if i shifted up every gear at 1.5k rpms like my auto trannie i would get better mileage

I bought my Celica because it's a nice car in and out, and I could afford it. I bought the Integra to fix up and sell for a profit. Yup, I'm pretty sure you developed a good understanding about what I'm all about ::) If you think I'm an import loving fag, you got me all wrong buddy.

WTF Jonny? The closest thing you have to proof says you get 24.6 MPG, a whopping .6 mpg over what its rated, then apparently your head started inflating and you were getting 30 mpg, and next thing we know you're getting 38 mpg!!

You need to be working for a car manufaturer, apparently you know something they don't!!

?? I have a good friend with an 800hp civic that get 30+ mpg, woopty do! But then again that's almost as good as talking about my aunt's friends' gay neighbor's sugar daddy's mustang that gets 78 mpg on bio-diesel and makes 1,600 hp n/a. :S
