I do drive the manual transmission, so that will reduce the mileage a bit since the final gear ratio is a bit lower, but I see many posts from other manual owners that claim 45+ too. Time to investigate my car.

I have a manual and i can get 50mpg on a short highway trip no problem. look at one of my pasts posts. See if you drive the 55-60mph, maybe you can get it too.
