I have an 06 Aero V-6 SC with the automatic and on steady highway driving, about thebest I have seen is 29, and overall it is only giving about 21 MPG,that being with my very gently right foot. Best friend with same powertrain in a convertible gets exactly the same thing. We are both 50 somethings, and not putting the miles on a qquarter mile at a time, so I am convinced it is what the car is capable of. Not very impressive, having come out of a 2002 9-5 Aero and getting 32 highway and 28 overall after four years and 120 K miles. That extra half liter of displacement must be the culprit,since the 9-3 SC is a touch lighter than the 9-5 sedan. I will admit though that the performance of this car is outstanding when you do use a heavy foot. I shudder to think how bad the fuel burn would be under those conditions.
