Re: mpg with m/t??
Can't say from experience (yet), but I'd say it depends entirely on the tranny chosen. The JDM 6MT's probably get horrible mileage, since they're always spinning lots of revs. I'd say the 3.90 5MT's would get pretty good mileage, with less parasitic drag making up for a few more RPM.

Re: mpg with m/t??
i am averaging just under 28mpg using regular unleaded fuel in my svx 5mt from a 2005 legacy 2.5gt. and this is a 2.5 month / 5500 mile average.

Re: mpg with m/t??
What was your usual city/highway split? With that many miles being put on the car I'd guess mostly highway. Still, that's pretty solid.
