What do you think about the 370Z'z mileage?

The Boxster also weights a good 300 pounds less than the Z so they do not need as much power to achieve similar ratios.
In general more power = less fuel economy, more weight = less fuel economy.
Ultimately it depends on driving style. I can get 30 mpg on highway in mine.
