    MPG on your e30?

    I took my 92 vert for long trip and got 28 mpg. Was wondering how are your MPG?

                Crop the top and bottom out of your sig so its just the car.

                        I have been hypermiling lately. It seems my auto 325i is most efficient at 45mph. It is turning 2000rpm exact, and the econometer reads 27mpg or so flat road, and still over 20 going up hills.
