That is so freaking good. I ran my car dry dry with like zero on the gas gauge. I got 330kms on a full tank with 94 octane...

There's always a few liters of gas left in the tank no matter how dry you run it. and you risk burning up your fuel pump this way. intsead, run your trip meter on your next FULL fill up and then use that number (kms traveled) and the amount of fuel that goes in your tank on your next fill up into this calculator: https://calculator-converter.com/l-100km-calculator.htm

If gas mileage matters to you, I would get the dealer to buy the car back and go for a FWD car like Civic SI, Corolla XRS or even an I4 Accord. The RWD base IS250 is also gonna be better on gas.

Gotcha. Gas mileage definitely matters to me, but not that much to the point where I would get into another civic haha. Been on the forums researching and it honestly doesn't look like anyone else's AWD is this bad on gas. I mean.. 330kms on 94, is absolute trash.

lol sad to say but 330km on 94 is horrible gas mileage that's worst than my IS500 lol... you'll be fine in Vancouer w/ rwd and a good set of winters, I've been doing that for many years w/ my IS350..
