I run 91 non-ethanol and my milage is seriously varied. First fill up I had an average of 31 MPG, but the first 160 miles of that tank was at 41 MPG. The rest of the miles were all city and killed that average.

Last fill up, I had only 19 MPG, but I had just gotten out of the break in, and spent most of that at 7k.

Going to Cali (850 miles) on the 24th of this month. I'll keep good track of MPG there.

Just returned from a 10 hr road trip in 90 degree weather going 65-70 mph with the AC on and I was getting an average of 40.6 MPG!

Auto or manual?

I actually dipped to 19.9mpg before I did a few highway trips. I love playing in the car

Don't pay much attention to the MPG display in the DIC. Mine is not only inaccurate, it's also imprecise. It's anywhere from about 0.5 to 2.5 MPG optimistic.

I recently did a business trip from Northern VA to Newark, NJ (250 miles one way) and didn't dip below 41 MPG (literally the whole way). I was driving 65-85 mph at any given point with the A/C on most of the time. I was really happy with the mileage and not having to fill up the tank.

I've tracked 2500 miles, 5 autox events and about 50/50 highway/city. Fuelly average below. Last tank didn't have an autox on it and I hit 37.3 mpg real world, read 38.4. An autox uses about a gallon of gas and drops my average about 10%.

You can see my average below.

Manual, about 70% Highway Driving

ditto.

You guys are driving your cars wrong or something, my MPG is way different.

Now that's an average! Wind in the back, downhill, towed by another car?

Grey · 07-10-2013, 05:03 PM

I was on the highway. Rev up to about 5-6k then let off and let it coast down to 3k and watch the change in MPG.

utekineir · 07-10-2013, 06:55 PM

had for 3 tanks so far, 6mt, stock other than changing to bf g-force sport comp 2 tires at end of first tank

first tank, 30 mpg driving like a chubby prick, donuts, etc

second tank, more restrained 31mpg

3rd tank all highway miles in the last day, 34 mpg, typically 5-15mph over

very happy overall considering the car is still breaking in, guessing with some light mods and more broken in a full highway tank may be able to hit 35+, for a car like this that would be fantastic.

driving makeup typically consists of 0-10% city driving, remainder bumfuck roads or hwy
