mines a cx but its a 5 spd and its got the same engine. I usually come out to right about 250. but if i put my foot into it a little more than usual I will get around 225. and fill ups are usuall around 9 gallons.

Yeah you better hope that low fuel light works because you cant really guess the mpg on a car. Theres so many things to consider when trying to see the mileage.

My fill-up is about 8.5-9 gallons and I get around 250 out of it. But, it has a Magnaflow cat-back and AEM CAI that may affect it.

I get around 300-340 miles to a tank and it takes between 9 and 10 gallons to fill my tank depending on how low I let it run before the fill up. My avg mpg is 32, and this is even with a good amount of "spirited" driving on each tank.

In the winter my gas mileage drops a bit tho and I get between 270 and 320 on a tank. You would think cold air would increase efficiency but I guess it doesnt provide enough of a benefit to overcome the fact that it takes more to get a cold engine started initially
