If it was'nt for getting 38.6mpg I'd be wanting something a little higher quality or a lot better handling.
I assume you're referring to AKM. He is driving at 80 MPH or more on the highway and doing more than 15 mph over the limit around town. I'm also guessing that his normal way of driving is not easy on the pedal. If that's the case he's probably be getting 20 - 22 in those other cars, tops. So almost 30 is not bad under the same conditions.
