I'm still getting about 20-21mpg averaging 30mpg (60% highway, 40% city I think). If I drive a bit aggressively, I'll end up with about 19mpg. I haven't ever recorded a tank with worse mileage than that after break-in.

I've got a 09 6 MT and right now (with only 700 miles on the odo mind you) i've been doing around 21.5~ city (granted, I live in a city with 100k people, not LA or NY) and 28.5 best highway (would have been better but i was changing gears and speed since i'm still under the breakin period. Seemed to get a bit better when I got my magnaflow exhaust and im hoping the HKS drop-in filters help a bit as well.

I have had my car for 1.5 years now and is 2008 S 6MT. I get 18 in the city and 25 on the highway. I got a little worse at first but is has leveled off to that.

Keep in mind I have a heavy foot and for whatever reasons mine does not have a rev limiter.

PS: I am happy with the 18/25 to be honest considering it is a high hp heavy car with a wide RPM band.

I have gotten 28 mpg on one trip that was around 400 miles but the weather was horrible and I pretty much had cruise control on with the speed limit. I think 24-25 is about the norm for 6MT on the highway though.

Averaging 16.9 per gallon. Mostly city driving. I drive semi spiritedly in MM most of the time.

Something is out of whack there. Are youtting 93 Octane in? To say I drive spirted would be quite a understatemnet. Plus, I have no rev limiter so I will shift later than most people.

Do you have an auto or straight drive?Ge

Generally manual transmissions get better mpg but I dont knw if that is true with the G37.

I get 17mpg average, up to around 24mpg highway. It would be better if I didn't have to drive 30 miles per day in So Cal traffic coming home from work. But I drive with a heavy foot and spend a lot of time in sport mode running higher revs.

About 60% highway/ 40% city, driving aggressively (mix auto, DS, sport modes) I've averaged 19.7mpg over the life of the car - 7,950mi.
