What is everyone's average km's per tank?
I drive a manual 1994 Magna V6 Executive and it does about 450km per tank when I'm gentle on accelerations and all that jargon... it seems a bit thirsty to me so just curios as to what everyone else's fuel consumption's are?

You'd have to calculate it out according to litres you fill it up with and tell us if that's city, highway or a mixture. 450km seems respectable for a second gen. Remembering they only have a 64L tank and even if you used say 58L of that for those 450km, that's still 12.8L/100km.
Formula: Total litres, divided by km, x 100. (45 / 350 = 0.1285... X100 = 12.85...
I have a 1991 TR 4 cyl, My gauge never sees the fuel light come on, gets to around 1/4 or 1/8 (gauge gets to that level sooner than it should I believe) and I fill it up but usually only takes 40-50L to fill. All city driving I get 350km to that most of the time, but it goes up a lot of windy hills. It needs a good tune-up and service and is an auto, bit sluggish at the moment but I'm sure if I pushed it to empty I'd get 400-450. But even getting 350km to 45L is a respectable 12L/100km, not comparable to brand new cars but my TJ can't do that well in the city.
On the highway, if nursed the TR is very good, best I've done is 700km to 56L (8L/100) which is just about unheard of.
