There is no cure! The best you can do is control it by always owning one and driving it whenever you need a fix.

The only way I'm giving up my Boxster would be for another one.

BTW - I generally get between 22 and 25 mpg. I a long drive at moderate speeds I've seen high 20s.

29 mpg! Never seen it in my 986. Guess it's all in the way you drive. I actually do drive it like I stole it. I can use a 1/4 tank really quick if I push the revs.

Didn't verify the 29 mpg at the pump....just what the trip computer said during a long Freeway stretch--was actually bumping 30 for a while but fell to 29 by the time I stopped(200 miles, sixth gear, 70ish mph). I should check at the pump and do the math to verify. All-around is less but computer still reads 24.? combined city/hwy. Admittedly not yet driving it like I stole it....but getting closer!!

Mine is an 03, S, Manual, IMS, RMS and 60K Service all completed. Don't know if I got a deal or not, but I really don't care anymore....having too dang much fun in it!!
