Well now that my break in is done it looks like I average betwween 15-16 miles per gallon. I do about 70% highway and 30% city. These numbers seem low as the window sticker has 16-23 printed. Is anyone getting better numbers ? I guess I got a heavy foot (LOL)

Per MFD, since I got the car I'm averaged at 18.5mpg, which is not bad considering the performance.
I think not exceeding 2,000rpm until both engine and tranny oil are above 150F has helped.

I do not use MFD to determine MPG. I fill the tank up then reset trip meter to zero, then at my next fill up I divide my miles on the trip meter by the gallons I just put in. This method is the most accurate way.

I want to try this now!!

Highest i saw was 15.3 mpg with 80% city driving.

I've got 15.5 on mine (700miles) as well.
About 400 of those were done on highway.
It used to be around 18, 19, but since I started to drive in manual since 500miles, mpg started to drop.

Yeah, consistent Manual operation is likely to result in a lower number. I once saw 22 MPG during break-in (in Auto mode). I'd say my average now, also in Auto mode, is between 16 and 18. Heavy foot 1/2 the time.

During the break-in,

how hard to they mean by "relatively high rpm"??

I've been thinking it would be about 3500~5000, but now I wonder if it's correct.

Worst case I get 18MPG... typically get 19.5 - 20.4 this is with a 13 mile commute... 8 miles city / 5 miles Hwy...

I get maybe 22MPG on the HWY cruising at 80.

Peace,

I average 17.5 with 40% hwy. I have 5k miles now on my 12.

11.9 here, it's all about how aggressive you drive.

 

[equisch3x]

15.5, I have yet to see itn change..

 

[biznaka]

I average 14-16mpg.

 

[MC]

16.2 is what i see around town and normal driving

 

[gilly6993]

I average 18.1......lots of highway driving though in 6th gear.....just hit 12K miles.....

 

[badscooby]

I drive in auto mode, so I'm getting around 18 mpg.

 

[ATL_GT-R]

I always drive in manual and have less than a mile commute to work. I do mostly city driving and am on e85. 7 - 8 mpg . . . sad.

 

[Goonthree]

Less than that here. Just yesterday, I did (8) pulls to 130 +.

11.9 here, it's all about how aggressive you drive.

 

[konaforever]

14.3 mpg. 90 percent city.

You mean, before trip meters, and digital mpg readouts? I think we all did this...

Kids these days, huh?

edit: 14 city, 19 highway (normally cruise around 75mph - speed of traffic).
