I've got a hair over 6,000 miles and I get right around 22mpg. I've done both the computer and manually crunching the numbers and they were very close for me.

devildoc · 12-09-2009, 05:02 PM

I got 28mpg on a 432mi road trip to SC going 77mph avg on I95.

purplhaizcraz3 · 12-09-2009, 05:11 PM

I'm averaging around 17.9 MPG with about 95% city driving.

Lapdogherc · 12-09-2009, 05:20 PM

I have got at high as 32.7 on a trip from mid Ohio back to western PA. That was late summer at 70mph on I-80.

montej23 · 12-09-2009, 05:53 PM

20 mpg going 70 mph

Agent Atomic Orange · 12-09-2009, 06:23 PM

I average around 17 mpg each tank. This does not include any highway miles. As you might guess, I had a lead foot. I like to stay around 3000 rpms along all the backroads I drive on. The car seems to come to life around there.

(I have seen as high as 28 mpg on a highway trip)

VASCAR2 · 12-09-2009, 06:30 PM

I get from 22 to 24 MPG with a mix of town and rural roads and the average speed on the DIC is about 38 MPH since being purchased. I've gotten 27 to 29.8 on tanks of fuel with mostly highway driving on short trips. If I could keep my foot out of it I'd probably get better economy on my daily drives. I have a 1LT A-6 3900 miles with 19" Pirelli all season tires.

TJ91 · 12-09-2009, 06:46 PM

my car got terrible milage til about 3-4000 km on it. I was getting around 14.5 in the city with very slow driving and keeping the rpms under 3k. I said screw it, drove her hard and then gas milage improved.
I get about 14L/100km with 80% city driving so not bad anymore
It will get better as she breaks in, but damn, it took alot longer then i thought it wouldve

Dave the Mule · 12-09-2009, 10:17 PM

I'm averaging around 23-24 to work and back. I probably drive around 75% highway.

bhut · 12-09-2009, 11:28 PM

Around 19-20 mpg (w/ 1200 miles) with mostly city driving and mid 20's average speed. Got it all logged in the glovebox, but I'm lazy and am not going to go get it.

It's amazing how accurate the fuel computer is. It's within .5 mpg when I check it at fill up. I just got back from a long trip, 800 mi. in two days and averaging 80+ mph {really}and I got 24MPG

2lt/rs m6 with 5000 miles
