Hello,
Not sure that this is true:), but thanks for a post.

70 to 85 year model wise is a huge spread. A lot depends on how you drive it. Be gentle and the mileage will be decent but if you start winding it out it will plummet. Fuel bill should also be the least of your concerns. With a 911 this old you will be looking at healthy maintenance bills per year.
1970 to 1985 covers alot of different models of 911 Targa: 2.2L 911T, 2.2L 911E, 2.2L 911S, 2.4L 911T, 2.4L 911E, 2.4L 911S, 2.7L 911S, 2.7L Carrera, 911SC, 3.2L Carrera… all of which will get different milage and will depend on many external issues (and then of course there are the turbo models, which again will be very different).
As a generalization, assuming they are tuned up and in good running order, the earlier cars with either carbs or MFI will get low 20mpg range (the S models getting a noticable bit less than the T and E models), and relatively little change with the bump to the 2.4L engines in 1971.
The last models you are looking at with the 3.2L DME controlled engines will be mid 20mpg range, with 30mpg or so certainly possible on long highway drives. The other cars will all be in between this range.
Though, ultimately how you drive will have the biggest impact on milage – in an 3.2L Carrera I have easily recorded 32-33mpg on long trips, but only 6mpg on track days in the same car.
I have a 1981 911sc. I get 24mpg @ 85-90 mph on the interstate.

People in the world get the credit loans in different banks, just because it’s comfortable and fast.
Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.

Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.
