Would you be looking at auto or manual?
Also remember the V-8's use 91+ octane. And I am currently sitting at 20 mpg with about 80/20 freeway to city. If I am doing more city driving it sits about 18 mpg and I'm still in the break-in period.

I have an A6 2SS
When my car was stock I would get 25.3 MPG highway, 18.5 MPG city. Now after removing all the AFM/DoD and putting in a non VVT cam and a 3200 stall TC, I get 12 city, and 18 highway - my average is typically 15.5 mpg.

I had a 1LT (V6) for a year before trading to my 2SS/RS (V8) both Automatics.
The V6 averaged 23.5 MPG 60%Hwy/40%Cty (Approx 9.8 Liters/100Km). Last week I took the brand new V8 on a trip from SC, through Niagara Falls & Canada to Detroit & back to SC (2200 Miles round Trip) & averaged 22.9 MPG 95% Hwy/5% city ( 10.23 Liters/100km). I expect the mileage to drop as the percentage of city driving increases now that the long trip is behind me.
