Funny, when I first drove my car home from the dealer (about a 200 mile drive), I got well over 30 mpg. But, I was new to the car, the car was new to me, and I drove very carefully and conservatively. Now that I drive the car the way it should be driven - keeping the RPM in the 3-4,000 range, rev matching on down shifts, etc. - I get 25-26 combo and 29 highway. Maybe you need to drive a little more spiritedly! I'm sure that you will grow more aggressive over time, and the mileage will adjust accordingly. But, for a car like that to get that kind of mileage is amazing.
