Increasing your MPGs?

I got an additional 1mpg by switching to non-ethanol gas.

The reason you get so much crap with a question like that is really easy to understand. No one buys a 370Z as a gas sipping economy car. Z's are performance cars. Did you think that when you bought a 332 hp sports car that you would get 30mpg? My commute is mostly 30-40mph and I get about 20mpg with non-ethanol fuel. Highway mileage is higher. But really, why in the world do you care if you get 16 or 12 mpg. You bought a sports car!
