while driving with my boss in his audi A4 convertible we where dicussing milage. he has a friend who has the same car with the same engine but as a hardtop, and he noted that even with the top closed he got slightly worse milage on average than this guy. of course they may have a different driving style etc but the science is there to support these observations.
