Only at about 600 miles with our 6MT right now. The running average is about 33 mpg. Driving is a mix of suburban/highway with a little bit of urban stop and go. Very pleased with the mileage, especially in December weather. Lately, we've been using comfort mode a lot. I'm going to experiment in warmer weather to see if the altered mapping in normal and sport affect the MPG.

I actually misreported mine the other day at 33 mpg. Went back and looked at the data and it's closer to 37 mpg average over about 4K miles. Very happy with this kind of mileage out of a car that is so fun to drive. For us, it's the right balance between fun and utility.

Ha ha. I think there's a fine line between getting exceptional gas mileage and just getting OK mileage, depending on how frequently you use that turbocharger boost. It's very tempting to have fun with it all the time.

Nope, just drive it. The EPA rating is 30 for this car, and at least for Honda/Acura MT cars, we've always found they readily beat the EPA rating, same as our current one does.

Our experience is that Honda/Acura motors get better mileage as they get some miles on them, all the way up to 15-30K. Our other experience (over 8-10 cars) is they consistently beat the EPA mileage figures.

We are averaging about 33 on our A Spec 6MT over about 4,000 miles. Not much heavy stop and go traffic, mostly a 50/50 split of highway and suburban driving. On legs with a lot of highway driving and warmer temps, we consistently see 40+ mpg.

That's pretty good for a brand new motor and almost 100% tough city driving. We have about 1,200 miles on ours and in a mix of suburban/highway driving with a little urban driving tossed in are averaging about 35 using 93 octane. We drive it mostly in normal or comfort mode, switching to sport on "fun" routes. I haven't fully assessed this yet, but I'm pretty sure more sport mode driving knocks the mileage down some, maybe 1-2 mpg or so.
