I'm gonna be one of those people with insane asking prices! For my Subaru 2.5RS Coupe. Pretty rare to find one un molested nowadays. I'll post it for $5000. Blue book is like $2000. I sold my Mazda 323 GTX for $3600 when blue book was $1800. Blue book does not understand rare rally cars!

And my Corolla came in at 52mpg everyone 170 miles hwy 55mph. Topped off the tank with 3.222 gallons. Pump stopped at 2.4. Then 2.7. Then 3. Then 3.222 haha. I didn't want to get my hopes up, otherwise I only top it off once. Gas level is becoming a real pet peeve of mine. I want to buy an LED inspection cam to stick down the darn filler neck!

That's why large fills are recommended. Instrumentation like an Ultragauge or MPGuino are your best bet for shorter distances.

Yeah I couldn't wait to burn the tank, it would be about two more weeks of driving! Plus I did 170 Hwy and the next 30 miles would be city, so I didnt want to dilute my rough hwy results. I just wanted to confirm it was above EPA's 41.

Way "back in the day" I had an 03' in 05'. I think I averaged around 43 mpg in the city and about the same on the highway. If I was really trying, I could manage 50 mpg but that created a lot of angry people behind me.

I liked it a lot actually until the traction battery gave way and it was replaced under warranty. Roughly 40k miles. Sold it afterwards so I didn't get a chance to test it further for reliability.

On the other hand, my friend here in Asia has a 97' Prius and it's still going strong. I think it has around 390,000 on the odometer, but there's no word on what he's replaced or what was done in the past. He paid $800 for it last year and it hasn't given him issues thought
