With my driving, the Bug got mid 20's mpg, the Hearald maybe a little better, and the Honda got 30-33....and no, I didn't use hypermiling techniques, but I drove faster than the hypers do. I'd gladly buy a new one like these for $3,000......especialy if you could keep them running with a visegrip, screw driver, and baling wire!

HEY! I had a Honda Z600 also! Cool!

Did you know at one time that car held the record for fastest stock minicar? Someone had a bone-stocker that hit 95mph. Not bad for a 600cc two cylinder, but scary, considering the ONLY safety features were the seatbelts, and nothing in the whole car was held together by more than 4 bolts!
