Update! 36.51 mpg with s2000

Just an update, my last two tanks were 36.51 mpg and 36.12 mpg. As the weather is getting warmer my mileage is getting even better. I was shocked at my recent mileage. I didn't think it was possible with a high compression engine. But I've been running it in 4th gear at 25, 6th gear at 35 and above; lots of coasting up to stop lights; 60 on the interstate, top up and top down. It seems like I get better mileage with the top down and windows up than with the top up. Of course once my 91' civic "project nose job" is done it'll be back to weekends for this one. Still it's nice to know that it's capable of this kind of mileage.
