I have a 97 Celica GT 2.2 li and these cars are not gas saver at all. The gas drop like everything time you step on the gas pedal..what can be done? I am starting to hate driving it cause i can't afford gas no more it it takes $40.00+ to fill it up. I travel 30 miles to work everyday and I almost have to gas twice a week. Sometimes I wish i could have bought a Honda Civic. I mean seriously this car ain't that fast but it uses so many gas compare to Acuras and Hondas..Maybe thinking about selling my car now, but i will hate to see it go.

stop mashing the gas at every single chance and drive at 70 or 65 and you will see results, if you drive it like you stole it then yeah your gonna get horrible gas mileage in anything that you drive, drive like a normal person and not a pissed off teenager and you will be fine, if not sell it and buy something you like to drive but your gonna have the same problem
