"Two-door" ? What are you referring to?
Common 3.8's were placed in all kinds of 4-dr cars and the taxi companies used them whenever they found them. Both Buick and Olds. The Delta 88 and LeSabre were the preferred size. Which is not to say they did not run Cieras or Park Avenues if they found them cheap enough.
Seriously, a 3.8L 6-cyl that got around 27 mpg when in taxi cab service is not legendary in your book? I had a 1988 Olds Delta 88 3800 and got about 15-17 around down with some limited highway. That car was definitely not legendary and a gas hog in my book.
If you have some contradictory information or better examples of unusually good or poor fuel economy, please share them.
Regards,
Tom
PS. People seem to be having trouble realizing I am talking about two different 3.8 engines that exhibited extremely high fuel economy.
