Re: 1990 Coupe Q - Fuel consumption?

[Robert Myers <rmyers@wvit.wvnet.edu>]

Peter,

There are approximately 3.79 liter/gallon (US not Imperial).  7 km/liter
calculates out to about 26.5 km/gal or 16.6 mpg.

This strikes me as low also.  I would expect something more on the order of
23-25 mpg or so.
