to be honest, i'm actually very happy to see what most of you guys are able to get with the Z. Although i'm not getting these numbers, I'm just glad that the car can actually do better MPG than what I expect.

Keep this poll going! Thanks a lot everyone for sharing this useful information.

I took my 2nd long road trip since I bought my Z last May. The only difference between the first trip was I had under 1100 miles on the car and traffic was heavy. My avg mpg was 22. I have to say I was disappointed. On this recent trip with 11,600 miles on the odometer at speeds between 75 - 90 100+ on ocassion I was able to avg 26.4. These engines definately do better after 10K miles.

I think if you're getting 22+ mpg in the city, you're driving it like a sissy. I don't fall below 4k RPMs unless I'm stopped.

A little under 21MPG is what I average with 50% Hwy/City driving. I shift at 2k RPM when oil temps are under 180 and at 3k RPM after it's warm, sometimes skipping gears (1,3,5,6).

I'm "heavy-footed" and drive at 80% of the car's limit where I can and "light-footed" in traffic.

Ironically enough, I've an AT 2010 with 27k miles on it, and I'm getting an avg of 21.4mgp city and 24mpg hwy right now, according to the cpu...

I've been making sure to not "floor it" while driving, for the most part.. also, i've been keeping my fuel consumption gauge between the 20 - 40 mark as best as i can... I mean, no need to rush if you don't have to...

One last note - i find the most fuel efficient speed to be 55mph IMO...

Hmm. I don't know what I get overall - it varies about 17-18 city and 24-25 highway. I can improve the city number by adjusting the way I drive, but that's no fun.
