Not much warmer down here in Cinci and I average about 18 mpg (75% city, 25% highway) although it doesn't get driven too much in the winter. I've seen 25+ mpg at least once during a trip to and from Akron. I agree with Rotary Evolution above, there's no need to let your car idle for 15 minutes before going anywhere. From what I read these cars idle at relatively rich air-fuel mixtures. I usually wait about 1 minute before going anywhere (longer if it hasn't been driven in a while) and then just keep the engine speeds lower until it's fully warmed up.
