I get about 18.5mpg in town.
I find the autobox convenient for my local driving. I seldom get to go longer than 1/2 mile w/o a full stop and that's a good day.
I'm a little too old to worry about bone crushing accelleration, but I like how peppy the auto is in town.
That said, it is not my choice for a long distance car. I'm planning on my next Saab (4th) right now. I want a 5spd Aero, not sure if I want a 9000 or 900. The 9000 has a lot of things I like.
