08 MPG vs. 07 MPG
How come the MPG went down on the 08 Cayman versus the 07 Cayman?

Thanks

Chris

I believe, as this was the case when I worked at a Mercedes/Jeep/Mazda dealership, that the lower gas mileage numbers were due to new, stricter EPA mpg testing. Evidence of this can be seen at fueleconomy.gov. New MPG Ratings for 2008...

The 2008 Epa Ratings Are More In Line With "real" Day To Day Driving; I.e. Air Conditioner Turned On, Driver And Passenger, Full Tank Of Gas, A Little Wind Outside, The Occasional Stoplight, Etc. - Bottom Line: It's The Same Car, Engine, And Transmission As The 2007, Just Rated Differently.
