Haven't had a chance to do a file pull or refill with 93 octane.

Thanks

what fuel grade are you currently at?

[Camero5]

Not sure. Just picked up the ZL1 on Saturday. It was at Porsche and they said they only carry 93. 19k miles in the odo

If you get on the highway you will do better. In the past week, I did two road trips in the ZL1 from Milwaukee to to the tip of Wi upper peninsula. 400 mile round trip going mostly 70 MPH while taking off ramps every ~30 miles and getting right back on. Way up its much more twisty with varied speed. First trip I averaged 19.1 and the second 19.4.

11 city, 14-15 mix and 19 highway seems right. My 04 GTO with 5.7 LS1 gets 15 city, 18-19 mix and 24 highway.

I just did a 400 mile drive and got 19.5 mpg with the cruise control set @76mph.

I normally get 15-16mpg around town. I get about 6mpg on the track.

I was averaging 16 city and hwy combined.

On all hwy trips I was up to 19.5 mpg.

I just picked mine up at LPE and drove 400 miles home at 75 mph and driving through towns and some traffic, averaged 23 mpg making 700 rwhp. Very happy.

14 to 15 city, 19 Hwy, even when new, 5k now. Oh 8-9 when getting in it..

2013 M6, 4000 miles, 8-10 mile daily street commute, 91 octane (10% Ethanol); 13-14 mpg if I don't get on it (too much).

[WSSICK]

Averaging 17.3 MPG city with 91 octane. On a 210 miles trip I was getting just short of 24 MPG highway.

3500 mile trip to Key West... Combo of morning rush hour thru Memphis to crusing at 120...[ATTACH][/ATTACH]

Here's some stats on my manual 2013 stock ZL1. Commute to work is 12 miles each way of stop and go 35-45mph streets(about 13MPG). Going to Thunderhill Raceway, a 180 mile drive with an average speed of 70MPH and taking it very easy and as much as possible in sixth/cruise control about 19mpg. 20 minute sessions on the roadcourse dropped it down to 4mpg.

The variables are how hard you drive and stop and go driving kills the mpg.

I too get 10-11mpg. Lots of DC traffic. I use nothing but 93 octane from BP, Exxon, or Shell.

Impressive App and data! It looks like you're even more anal than me. I have always logged every gas fill or maintenave item into a book and then put it into a spreadsheet periodically to get similar data. It impresses buyer when it comes time to sell.
