I drive a '01 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP (supercharged) w/ 136k on it 80 miles/day (80% freeway but at rush hour). Can get 29 mpg on the freeway at 70 mph but overall I get 21-22 mpg.
Daughter was rear-ended in it this summer on the freeway. Trunk pushed in but would still close, hood slightly dented from being pushed into the car ahead, completely drivable.
