Default 2003 SI mileage?

Anyone here sporting a 2003 SI? What kind of MPG do you get?

The tech sheet says 30MPG highway. But for my 93 integra it says 26 highway, and I get 33-35.

So I'm hoping the SI would actually get 32-36.... maybe?

Well yea. That's what I'm thinking. But are those numbers unrealistic to expect with any driving style with that car?

Right now I get a lot better than the EPA estimate on my car, and if EPA estimate is 25-30MPG for the SI.... I'm thinking I can do better. But I really only want to get a new car if I'm getting better.

No payments and getting 33-35mpg versus monthly payments and 34-36mpg, maybe. I don't know if it's worth it.

Yea I need a new car, lots of issues due to it being old. So, either way I'm probably going to end up with a car payment within the next year.

hmm, EPA estimate for just the EX coupe are better than my current one. So maybe I can do better than that even. 40mpg average would be amazing.

32-36 is possible, but i get around 27-30 because of my driving style.

City driving, ignore shifting over 3ks and you're set. For manual, of course.
