ScottyB Wrote:the 4th gens (95-99) actually pull 30mpg on the highway. the engine is also pretty bulletproof....i think they have to have the variable intake cam timing mechanism maintained well, but otherwise very stout. the suspension is trash but at least the car is fairly light. cheap, stealthy cars with big aftermarkets are cool :twisted:
I had a max. They're nice but 30 mpg is optimistic. 16-18 pure city.
it averages mid 20's in city/highway if it's in tune. It's due to age and the fact that its a pig. It's heavy but if you're not trying to race the thing, then you be fine. You gotta figure out what you want to do with it. When I had my max, i loved it because it was so comfortable,( climate control, leather, bose audio was great) but when I wanted to do more "driving" I knew I had to get something else.
