Thumbs up AP2 Gas mileage?

Sorry if this has been asked already, but the search isn't working on my end today.

Anyways, I've read the old fuel ratings were 20/26, but according to the new testing system the S2000's are rated at 18/24. Is an AP2 a really good, efficient car to drive? Considering city driving and the occasional 'high revs', are you guys happy with what you get out of one tank of gas? How far can you go?

Thanks in advance!

I have a MY07 and get 24-28mpg. I am not a slow driver and can get 300 miles on a tank most of the time.

I've never gotten below 21, and have gotten as good as 26 with my '04 AP2. Whether or not that's good for you depends. I daily a '99 Civic that seems to always get 31+ mpg no matter how much I beat on it. It also takes regular. That said, the S2000 isn't that bad on mileage.
