On my '88 I used to get 21-23mpg on the highway (cruisin at 80-90 with plenty of downshifts for passing and fun. Around town, I used to get 15-17mpg during the winter and 17-19 during the summer. I couldn't ever drive nice enough to get stellar mileage, but I feel like the car would have.

Hell, I still only get about 21mpg in my miata around town but I have gotten as high as 25 once doing my version of not-quite-so-hyper-miling
