I drove a Metro for 8 years, I commuted 60 miles per day. I rarely had it on the freeway, my commute is on rural 2 lane highways. I went from searching for fuel mileage to having fun with the car. I went from 55 mpg pig to 45 mpg with the 1.3L. Either way you don't just pull out and pass a line of traffic. I was fun with the 1.3 to race people, they just couldn't get their head around a fairly quick Metro. I have a 150 hp Saturn L now and I can pass at will.
