Hi,
That is totally driver dependent. I could see some people getting 17MPG, I get 22 (have seen 30MPG on extended freeway drive w/ cruise).
How old is your air filter? MAF Sensor? OČ Sensors? Engine Oil? Plugs? Tire Pressure? All these things can reduce your MPG if not up to spec...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

I get 26 highway at 75 mpg and about 19/20 city. Alll with top down. I'd presume better with top up. If I have a lead foot then 17/18.

I get about 210 to 225 miles per tank depending where I drive. If I take a long highway ride instead of back and forth to work I can get over 230. That is with super from Shell.

Philly and back this weekend. 400+ miles total. Mostly highway with some city driving back and forth from my brother's place to my mother's house, out for meals, etc. Averaged 28.4 mpg. I thought that was pretty good.

I consistently get around 26 mpg with mostly highway driving (40 miles round trip to work and back).
I've pushed up against 30mpg on road trips, but can't quite break the barrier, coming as close as 29.8.... that was at 85mph with the a/c on, though, so I could probably have gotten 30 had I been conscious of it.

Best MPG
I have been averaging in high teens when I am squirrling around, but on a trip down south I ran through a tank of gas with cruse control at 75 mph with the top down, I got 29.6 mpg on that tank, I was very impressed.
