Weatherman, you're correct. As the car break in, the gas mileage improves (or at least that's the case with the Z). I recently took a trip and my results were the same. I was getting 26ish at around 76-79 MPH but as soon as I dropped it to 70 MPH (just to test it), MPG went up to 28+ .

I was getting at least 26+ MPG on the highway cruising from 75 - 80 MPH. As soon as I took my foot off a little (about 70 MPH), my MPG rose close to 28.6 MPG. Pretty impressive. Please note that gas mileage is LEAST of my worries since I DIDNOT buy this car for gas mileage. But I just posted in case someone wanted to know...
P.S. I run redline synthetic.
