I bought a new '77 Buick Regal with a 350 2bbl. automatic which was my first car it got about 15 mpg combined city/highway and my first eco car was a '78 MG Midget bought in '81 with a 1.5 liter four speed it got about 25 mpg combined city/highway. The funny thing is my first economy car got about the same mileage as most of the current V8's in the full size cars, Cadillac's, Mercury Grand Marquis, Ford Crown Victoria etc.
