gas mileage
I have an '84 GT. In town, it gets 12-13 mpg. On the hwy @ 60-65 it gets 18. This is 5th gear/16-1700 rpm. Original owner says he once got over 25 mpg. From the answers posted, maybe my mpg is about average. The car has close to 200,000 mi. The car is an export model, so the odo is in kilos(reads over 300000!), and the big numbers on the speedo are in kph. When I first got the car, I came up behind a cop and noticed the speedo was around "100". The "klics" per hour top out around 180. Just waiting for the chance to scare the hell out of a passenger some time

gas mileage
ok the only way to find out anyones gas mileage is to fill up the tank untill it can take no more gas (full) then drive it and put some miles on it and fill it up again to the top and divide the number of miles you went into the number of gallons you put back into your tank. thats the only way. i went like 143 miles on like alittle bit over a half of a tank and i filled it up and it said i put 8.95 gallons back in and the i did the calculations and i got 15.97 mpg. not bad for a 300 rwhp daily driver.
