"Love my Fit! Have an automatic that has gotten up to 43 mpg and averages 40. Two other people have them at my place of employment, both of them are sticks. One owner who drives with a bit of a lead foot gets 36-37 mpg. The other owner who drives more conservatively is getting 43-45 mpg."
Yes, I'm another that thinks this thing should turn-in even better numbers. My 2006 Civic 4-door manual trans has averaged about 35.2 mpg its whole life and that includes initial break-in, winters, frequent short trips within a city and just mild hypermiling for a quarter of its life.
My last tankful was 41.4mpg in mixed driving.
