I'm lucky to get 24mpg average on a tank of gas in my 03' MC, and I don't drive 'that' hard.

Only if the MCS is going downhill - both ways.

I average 32-36 mpg in my 03MC....and I do drive spiritedly. Worst I ever got outside of the track was 24mpg, best was 43mpg.
Track, about 16mpg.

With our 03, we avg about 28-30mpg around town and upper 30's on the highway. Not bad for being upgraded as well. I've been very impressed with ours.
