Always Use 93 from Shell/Mobile regardless of prices, why do you want your car to under power by putting anything lower *Just my thought*. 21 city, 25, combined and 30+ on highway. VTEC maybe 3 times since owned 13.6k miles. I think Imay have got 39 m/g on highway but could be miscalculation.

Don't know in mpg, but I do about 470km with 40L of Super 98, so I average between 8 and 9L / 100km

Ok, I converted via internet, I average between 26 and 29 mpg

This is city driving...

91 is almost impossible to find around here, so I run on 93

Gas mileage, in general I have no idea, I fill up when the orange pump icon comes on and it is about 220 miles.

I do know this, I have gotten 33 mpg on the highway, and I get 6 mpg on the track.

Just checked my records for the 13k I've owned the car and see that I get 20-23 in city and 26-29 on the highway.

I use Shell 93 octane and do a little more than half of my driving in town. My lowest was 21mpg and I just got 24mpg tonight.

You have to use Premium gas as it says in the manual and on the inside of your gas tank cover.

I am not too critical about where I fill up and every time I do the math, I get 26mpg, no matter how hard I drive. Around here we only have 91 octane. The car is a DD with 110 degree AZ traffic and the A/C always on. It is driven to it's full potential as much as possible
