Maybe 30/70. I blast it around town, on ramps and down the highway, but cruise in gear, early shift and ride down gears all the way. It's the way I drive that gives me that kind of return. On one early tank I went 25 mpg because I was taking it easy. Watching your mpg meter and playing with your gear selection and not neutral coasting can give you better mileage.

TrueDelta conducts a real-world gas mileage survey that, unlike others, includes driving style and driving conditions. Results for the Z here:

Real-world Nissan 370Z / 350Z gas mileage

None for the 370Z yet--hopefully we'll start seeing some soon.

20.2 mpg around 330miles to the tank

50% highway, 50% city.

I believe I could do a little better, if i was not running late for work every day.

My average speed is 30.4 or something like that and I've got over 3000 miles, so take that into consideration.
I think the average speed is an important point. I checked my last full tank and the gauge showed an average speed of 42 with a mileage of 23.2. I did one highway run with an average speed of 67 and mileage of 25.9.
