HORRIBLE GAS MILEAGE: Convertible - Automatic 2003 330Ci
 I did all my research before buying the 2003 a few months back.I thought it would give me good gas mileage; but it is the worse I have ever had. I average 14.3-15.3 mpg.I thought it would be at least 20, 21.I would not have bought if I knew it would be this bad.I have new tires, tune-up, oil change, runs good.So there should be no reason why I'm getting such bad mileage.I like the way the car looks and drives, but sits kind of low to the ground.A bit hard to get in and out of.The convertible top works perfectly and I use often.It costs me $80 to fill up ($4.25 gallon); I work from home and just drive near home to get groceries, bank and take my dog to the park.
