10 MPG is something we see at the track, or running REALLY hard in the canyons. Street driving is always in the 20's, unless you're in stop and go traffic.

This is assuming you have a set of sticky tires; expect higher with the stock tires.

I do have lighter weight Enkei RC-t4 in 17 x 8 and I have 225 michelin super sport tires on there. So there is a change in the equipment. The driving I do is about 20 miles a day mixed highway / city. Nothing crazy in terms of acceleration / WOT. I put in gas this morning so I wrote down the amount of gas to the click and zero'ed the ODO. Lets see in a couple days when I fill up how much gas i've used.

Also I am going off the display in the dash, so it might be inaccurate because of all the modifications, but I am losing gas substantially faster. I have to fill my tank every 4 days instead of every 6 or 7.
