I'm getting 8.5L/100km and i'm close to 800km, i usually shift up at 2500rpm to save fuel. I'm running on Shell V power 91.

wow 6.0 thats wicked. Oh btw does your Average update on its own? mine keeps staying at the same number all the time lol.

The average does update. I've been watching it fall from 6.2 to 6.1 to 6.0 on the highway (mind you I did put over 800km on it on the same trip).

Yup it does constantly change. I'm going to a Bach party next month to ottawa, will try to keep it 100 km and see if I can get 700 on one tank of gas.

Dude 800, I hope I can match or beat it

I'm at around 8.1 and it's dropping steadily. Feel like, I get about as good mileage and range as my Versa, which is really convenient....similiar 6spd notchy tranny, same reverse mechanism, and same range....love it, very convenient for planning trips.

I usually shift between 3-4k since I find shifting at 2500 the car don't want to move. Maybe I am used to shift at high RPM with my S2000.

That depends largely on which break-in methodology/gospel/faith you subscribe to.

Touchy subject, but different strokes for different folks.
