When I drive it to and from work I'm pushing 19 +mpg...28 mile round trip mostly urban and town driving. when I get it back after the wife has been tooling around it is usually around 17.3 or so. Her main car is a Turbo MazdaSpeed MX-5 ........take your foot out of it dear....She has this "wind 'er up and feel the turbo kick in mentality." oh well...................

Well I already have 8349kms (about 5010 miles) and I put in a tank of gas every other day (I travel about 250 km a day) I have been averaging 22.4 mpg. Mainly hiway driving at 120kph or 75 mph
So the miles are going on and still rides like new. Feels a little looser on the throttle meaning it accels quicker than when it was new. :Racing:
Almost time for the second oil change:Banana01:

I have about 1200 miles on mine ... Im getting about 17.6 MPG ... however my little read out thing on the dash says im getting around 18.9 MPG ... wonder how it figures that? I have filled up a few times now and i always calculate the MPG and the actual compared to the read ot is off about 1-2 MPG.

What's your average cost for a fill up? I'm sure it's less than my F250. LOL
My Trip
Well, I have not added up receipts yet for arround town But I have the results of a recent trip to RI.
The trip was mostly Highway, 10 Hours total, with about 2 hours in slow traffic
473 miles / 23.1 GAllons = 20.4 MPG total fuel burned. Not bad for a new Engine with 1500 miles on her and origional factory oil.
(I'd expect this to get even better as the engine " Breaks In ".)

I don't have the 3 Weeks yet, and I'm over the 1200 Miles.
Filled up about 5-6 times, but I've been taking long Highway trips. and drive a lot in the city.
Average Cost for Fill up: $50+ V-Power
It's hurting
You must be hard on the gas..Im a the same mileage and Ive only filled up 4x (and have half a tank currently) and its been 88% stop and go/city and only 12% or less highway...and where octane gas are you putting in yours?
