This was on Premium fuel used since day one.

The car started off at around 15 mpg for the first few days, for what will probably be around town mileage.

I must say that this is lower than what i expected, but I guess we all make small sacrifices here and there for what it is that we truly want in life...MORE AND FASTER TURNS!!!

I cruised on the highway in 6th gear.....kept it at around 70 for 60 miles. I used 1/4 tank in 60 miles. I filled up to check what I was getting......18 mpg.....HIGHWAY!.. Yikes

I know checking gas milage is nnot accurat after only 60 miles but....wow

First tank of gas was just over 16 for me. I sure hope this gets better as I get out of the breakin period and don't have a need to keep changing gears every few minutes on the freeway. At this rate, I'll be filling up every 2-3 days.

This is already being discussed on another thread.
