2004 Mazda MX-5 Miata Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2005 2dr Convertible turbocharged 178hp 1.8L I4
6-speed manual RWD		 Excellent mileage. I get 36mpg on normal highway cruises and about 28mpg in town. When I go to the race track, I run around 22-24 mpg. If you are really savvy, this car burns about 2 gallons an hour! So cheap to keep on the road. see full Mazda MX-5 Miata review

5-speed manual RWD		 30-35 MPG....easy question these days. see full Mazda MX-5 Miata review
