And because its all city driving, my average MPH is somewhere around 16.X...

Pretty sure the A/C is affecting your MPG; not sure why it didn't go back up when you turned it off though. Are you doing the MPG calculations by the on-board computer or other means (i.e. tracking usage through gas receipts)?

I leave climate control on "Auto" all the time. In stop-and-go driving I get about 19mpg. In my current mix of driving (very little-to-no highway, but not so much stop and go) I am getting a solid 21.4. I have the touring sport with AT. In comparison, on the track where I shift manually at or near the redline, I get 10.5 mpg.

16-17 MPG (street only). I love the sound of my exhaust.

Here is what I found with my Z. Driving at 65 for a little more than an hour I averaged 32mpg. Doing 75-80 I was getting about 25 or so.

I average 7. But I only drive it on the racetrack.

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...

My average mpg, don't know and don't care. I bought my Z for the fun factor. If I was concerned about mileage, I would have bought an economy car. P.S. I just recently drove to Milo Missouri. Using the cruise control, I got 28.2 mpg. I checked it by dividing miles driven by the amount of gas I used. My math came out only .1 mpg different then the computer readout. The computer said my average mph was 64.

haha, you beat me there. At the race track i get about 8-9 mpg. I need to push it harder. j/k

Great for you folks that can get over 20 mpg. I can't get 18 mpg when I drive it to work on a few occasions - which is why my Z isn't my daily driver. Sitting in traffic, stop and go easily reduces the MPG to 17 or less as I keep my S-Mode on in my MT.

If I drive freeway with no traffic then i can easily get 22 mpg. But I like to shift at 4K to hear the exhaust open up. Fun car, but def a great price to pay if used as a daily driver.
