I was quite surprised myself. Stayed at 65 the whole way, only stopped once for food, and avoided braking wherever possible. My only mod is a cat-back exhaust.

i do mostly city driving and average around 26

I've only put 250 miles on mine since I bought it last weekend. I've averaged 30mpg on my first tank, which is split about 50/50 in town and HW.

Very happy with the mileage on it so far.

So I've actually been easy on the pedal to see what kind of mileage I can get out of the BRZ, a solid 29 mpg in mixed, primarily city/suburban driving. Very pleased.

Also wonder if the fuel I've been using is helping, been running sunoco 93 last few tanks.

Averaged about 10.1/100km(23mpg) in about 45 minutes of stop and go traffic each way. Single lane, 50 kmph max limit on most of these roads and a lot of construction. Auto transmission. 91 shell vpower. Stock everything. Downtown driving :\

i get 23-24 mpg on 93, mostly back roads, try not to let the tach slip below 4000 ;)

First fill-up today. Miles driven (which for this was odometer - 15 miles)/gallons filled netted me ~27mpg combined city/highway, about 11 gallons. :thumbup:

This range would've starved the STI about 40 miles back and taken up an entire 16 gallon tank and then some.

I'm happy! Most efficient subie I've owned. WRX and Forester never had this kind of combined efficiency, and obviously the STI never even came within sight of it.

:burnrubber: and sip gas, folks... more money for :cheers:

dunno is its because of lighter traffic or my new filter but my 28ish mpg just became 30.8 the last 4 days, same commute. I approve no matter what the cause :)

Mobius357 11-12-2013 07:00 PM

I get 30-31 driving side roads,35-45mph speed limits. I rarely get on the highways. I don't try for mileage on purpose, but I'm a pretty mild driver anyway.

As far as drafting trucks goes, they played with that on mythbusters and came up with some pretty impressive numbers for the follow distance. At 100 feet, about 1 second behind at highways speed, they got an 11% difference.

Averaged 32mpg hwy and 30mpg mixed. I have stock tires up front on 17x8.25 and 255 tires (could've been 245 dont remember) on 17x9.75. Made very little difference in stock vs aftermarket wheels. Very very pleased.

caffeinejunky 11-14-2013 11:53 PM

Right now I'm getting avg 24.4 mpg. Driving in oc traffic for 5 days a week is not fun. Plus I LOVE how my exhaust sounds.

THEWAKLER 11-19-2013 06:50 PM

In car MPG generally hovers around 32.5mpg, but is generally about 1mpg higher than actual.

Newby here, I have about 1350 miles so far, probably 30% highway and my computer says 34.0 overall. I have not checked it to see what my actual is.. Don't laugh, I really don't baby it that much and of course this includes not exceeding 4K for the first 1K though I did a few times..
