My '97 3.4 gets 25-26 mpg with "normal" driving (whatever that is!), 16-17 when I give lots of demo rides on a tank (i.e., flat out runs to 130+ mph and just plain hammering the crap out of the car) and will get 29 mpg on the highway if I keep it under 80 most of the time.
Could be the fuel filter needs to be replaced. Manual says should be done after 60K. But mine seems to be fine. Nice looking car (efahl) by the way.
