You must be in some major traffic because I get better than that driving locally and I have 4.08 gears. Before I had the gears, I got mid teens city/low 20s highway.

The worst my z has ever done was a 40 mile stretch of driving where avg speed was 19.4mph and my mpg was 15.6 during that span. Your getting track day fuel economy, I think I get 8 mpg during track days, lol

20MPG for me until I got my ARK Exhaust, not it is back down to about 15MPG, since I love the sound at or above 4k RPM

*UPDATE* I took my wife up to Dallas then up to the casinos in Oklahoma from the Austin area a few weeks back and averaged 27.5 MPG. I also just recently put a custom true dual exhaust and noticed a 3 MPG increase overall average in fuel mileage. My last major road trip prior to this one averaged 24.8 so yes Im happy with a peppier Z and driving longer between fuel stops!

I had an '09 sport package, 6-speed manual. I averaged 18 mpg city...and maybe 21ish highway. I drove it very conservatively; no racer here.

You sure it was about 13 gallons to fill up? because I thought the 370 had an 18 gallon tank.

You guys are driving at extremely low average speeds which gets you bad gas mileage.
My average speeds are like 40 mph and I get 20-21 mpg. Long cruising on the highway my average speed is 75 mph and I still get 25 mpg.

I just filled my tank yesterday and it was 13.082 gal and it ran 142.5 miles. so it has only 10.89 MPG...not even 11......I'm wondering if this is normal? should I drive to the dealer and ask them to check? Please advise thanks a lot.
Abnormal. My jeep has 2 more cylinders and more power and torque significantly and weights almost 5k pounds. I average 14 Mpg pure city driving and getting on it relatively often. My 370z got 18.5 in similar.
