32.2 on my second tank. Could've been better but I didn't want to keep the engine at the same speed for too long so I sped up and slowed down a lot on the highway. I think it will easily get 35+ once it's broken in.

Different system of octane rating. Their 98 comes out to about our 93.

2750 miles under my belt and Im at an overall average of 31.2 mpg as per the dash info. I keep a spread sheet but wont compile that until 5K. I'm about 70/30 hwy/city.

I have a trip to Memphis planned next week for work and I'll be taking the BRZ. I'll update on Monday night.

Right around 28mpg at 1000 miles. Did roughly 80 miles today on highway so it might go up a bit.

I've done 2.5 tanks

1st was 31.1 driving up and down through the gears at moderate pace with a few ride alongs with my friends

2nd was 33.4 with cruising to work on my backroads but also a few spirited ride alongs

3rd tank the guage is saying 34.5...and so far has been just slightly optimistic...maybe .5-1mpg off.

RON Octane Rating x 0.95 = AKI Octane Rating
98 RON Octane x 0.95 = 93.1 AKI Octane (US measure)
100 RON Octane x 0.95 = 95 AKI Octane (US measure)

On very rare occasions Ive come across 94 octane. Even more rare is finding gas with zero ethanol. I wish I had a local station without that crap, there was a good 2-3mpg improvement running non-ethanol fuel over 10% ethanol in my other car.
