It's real and will get better as the car gets broken. Just goes to show how the EPA ratings are not accurate for many vehicles because of the nature of the test cycle. (I'll leave it at that). I have a 1997 900S (automatic) with 110,000 miles and I have averaged 26.6 mpg (about 70% highway miles) and the sticker said 19 city, 27 highway. My 2004 Saab 9-3 Linear (automatic) has 15,000 miles and has averaged 28.7 mpg (about 80% highway miles) and the sticker said 20 city, 30 highway. I have gotten as high as 34 mpg.
Take it easy and enjoy the gas savings.
