I was happy to see Lars bringing up mileage for the 924 Turbo.

I had to keep notes for my accountant for mileage for my 924. It did have modest head work, but the figures always varied from 650 km/tank to 500 km/tank. On days where I ran it hard and stupid, the mileage dropped to 350 km/tank to 400 km/tank. Mind you, the car was regularly maintained, so they may be better than the norm.

I was wondering, does anyone else know what the standard combined city/highway mileage might be for the 924 Turbo? Or broken out? I don't mean the stuff from the manuals, I mean real mileage now.

Thanks very much.

Hi Just did another 500km/310 mile trip. Calulated the mileage to be at 35 mpg( imperial gallons) with an average speed of 78 mph. It was a little lower than the first post but then I had to get up some hills and a summit of about 3000 ft. Was on the boost for a while the cooling system was taxed. I'll have to check and make sure the rad is fine. But other than the cooling concern it was a great trip, Windy roads ,long staights and interesting challenges with other cars. till next time.manuel

weren't we talking about the 924?

ya the 924 turbo gets wicked mileage.
As long as you don't use the turbo like most people do (pedal all the way down all the time)
