If im heavy on the foot, ~250miles
I average 300-325~ miles in the city
I've reached 400~ miles on the hiway / city before.
Sounds like you've got a heavy foot!!!

Come on ppl, its a DSM, if you care about fuel mileage why did you buy a turbo AWD car. haha.
EDIT: If you really want to know, my worst was 200km to a tank, best was 350ish.

I am averaging about the same as every one else, $45 to fill 94.
I remember when i first bought my car. I thought "wow a four cylinder and turbo, I will get good gas millage and lots of power"
Boy was i wrong.

You shouldn't even be driving a turbo DSM if you're looking at the gas mileage.
If you want good gas mileage buy a Toyota Yaris.

The highest I've ever gotten was 22 or 23 mpg.
I was driving very very conservatively for a few months when the car was stock, and regularly got 390 - 430 km to a tank.
With city traffic and a heavy foot, 350 km is mid-high for me.
I've blown through a tank in less than 100 km before.

Galant gets between 525 and 600k on a tank, but its N/T. it IS AWD tho, and has short gearing. I went from Golden to Chilliwack on one tank! And fiddled around in Kamloops too.
The Talon gets 450-550 a tank as well. And it is turbo and runs on 850 cc injectors.
