Guest Wannabe Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Looking to buy a supra. What sort of mpg do they give? Is there any difference between a manual and auto? Are N/A alot more efficient? Not really that bothered, I guess you don't buy a supra if your looking to save money on fuel, but am interested.

Jake Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Looking to buy a supra. What sort of mpg do they give? between 18 and 24mpg usually, depending on how they're driven Is there any difference between a manual and auto? In the manual you have to change gears yourself. (kidding) Are N/A alot more efficient? A bit, not much in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wannabe Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 LOL, I admit I am new, but I do know in a manual you change the gears yourself. I meant is there a difference in fuel economy between an auto and manual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Sorry mate, I was just kidding. They reckon the auto is slightly worse on fuel. I've never have a stock TT manual so I couldn't say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesmark Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 As stated by Jake with the fuel figures, if MPG is what your wanting in a car then do not consider a supra, walk away now as those figures will come down if you cane it all the time and if you increase the power.

turbonut Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 hi Wannabe I have an NA, pretty standard apart from TRD decat and suspension changes. Was told by previous owners to expect around 280 miles from a full tank. Going to and from college - 85mile round trip, A roads and bit of motorway + traffic crawling can do the 85 miles on a quarter of a tank, but thats a steady 85ish on the clear straight bits. Heavy traffic sucks up the juice, as does taking it for a thrash. ....unless your out with a couple of turbo owners then just DONT look down at your fuel guage! tbh, you'll be loving it so much, fuel won't be an issue - the fun factor is imeasurable! NA's are cheap to buy now, another £5k ish would give you a single turbo conversion if you wanted to go down that route, as most of us are dreaming of Get a local NA owner to take you out tho' you'l luv it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supragold Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 I checked mine yesterday. The last tank I got 15mpg but I had been caining it I can get 25 if driving very steady. But who does that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mcgoo Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 I get a pretty consistant 18 - 22mpg. I drive it every day with a small amount of town driving and the rest is not hanging around on fast 'A' roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 I thought mine was good but I burnt around 1/2 tank of fuel in about 30 mins the other day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stylieee Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 i average 18 mpg with my UK tt manual. although the 6th gear is nice on the motorway where i must get at least 25mpg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letmeshowyou Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Since I changed my lambda sensor I'm averaging about 25mpg with a mixture of hard and leisurely driving. Previous to that it was about 12mpg!! Figures on my NA one when I had it were quite comparable (both auto) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
