(It actually get around 55 mpg). This is an old joke, because when the rotary in my '86 gave up the ghost, my friends were all talking about how at least the Metro ran, which made it way faster than the Mazda. This led to all sorts of 1.0L RX7 jokes, none of which seemed to care than my Metro had barely 100,000 miles on it and my '86 Mazda had almost 200,000 miles on it. The fact that the '91 still ran fine and had 140,000 on it was also ignored, even when I brought it up.
