A stock KA doesnt get that great of gas mileage so I was wrong about that. Ive heard of guys getting close to 30s around town in them though. I think that was probably with the Japanese turbo motor (sr20det). You can tune them to run a little more lean and they get great mpg. I owned a miata a few years ago. Im sure it would have got great gas mileage had it been stock. It had an aftermarket turbo kit and tune. It got around 16mpg city and 24 on the highway :/
A lot of that probably had to do with my driving style though
