My buddy is getting about 26mpg city and 33 highway in his svo. As for price, all depends on the condition of the vehicle. I've seen a 88 tc go for about 2k and the only problem with it was a misfire issue. All depends on what your looking for and how much power you want.

stock power is fine, the mpg is the issue at hand. the svo or tc makes me have best of both worlds. a great dd now and a project later

If you stay all stock and just put around with out being WOT all the time you get some good mileage.
