I clocked 8.32km/l, 40%highway and 60% city. Rev a few times.
Mine a 4AT. On average, it is around 7.5km/l. Maybe due to VS, grounding and a lighter rims.

Mine's a 4AT and readings are very similar to yours. It's a ltd series sports edition bought in Aug 06.

Anybody noes what that means other than the extra trimmings. Is there a sports 'engine' for this model?. Shud hv tried some other bros 4AT last weekend meet to compare.

Sorry, I'm a sotong when it comes to technical stuff.

I'm definitely driving an 8 bro =)

As to how i'm getting such FC,

Think it has something to do with me not using the AC during my morning drives to work

I'm normally up early so tt i dun hit any bad traffic, hv a pretty light right foot too (That helps)

Mostly in AT mode
