I had a 2006 Boxster S (manual) for many years and miles. About 60,000 worth. Cruising on the highway, in 6th, at 70-756mph, and 3,200-ish rpm, I could get 27-28 MPGs. So, the seller was accurate with his response.

Now in my 2104 Carrera S with PowerKit, and 430 HP, in the same example, now with 7th gear, and 2,250 rpm, I can easily get 32 mpg. Pretty amazing these cars.
