About 80% of my driving so far has been on highway.
Our city blocks in Honolulu is very short (filled with stops and stoplights) compared to many cities in the continental 48.

OP, please keep in mind, I'm in break in period and 90% of my driving is from Kaimuki to downtown area, it's 15.5 mpg, real tracking of gallons filled and miles driven. On my trip computer it is showing 15.3, very close. For a comparison 04 G35 Coupe (auto) was getting approx 16.
