I average about 20.2 city, 25.6 highway. Average about 21. I drive 65% city and 35% highway. Hardly ever go above 3k rpm city lol. When I drive aggressively it goes down to about 17.5 mpg. Am I too tame?

I am getting 23.5 overall with 50/50 city hwy driving here south of Omaha Nebraska. 8K miles on our 10 G37X sedan. We did upgrade to Lubrication Engineers oil and that did up the mileage to this. We were getting about 21 with the OE oil. The way this baby runs mileage is not really a concern. Fun is!! Just switched to winter tires yesterday.

and one more thing... if you barely rev beyond 3k, you need to swap in your car for a kia. You don't buy a chainsaw to cut some weeds man.

For all you Canadians out there L/100 KMS (US people please read as well)

Picked up an 08 37s last week and man am I loving it so far. Previous cars were a 95 Nissan Pathfinder and a Camry Hybrid....so you can understand this was a major upgrade in terms of performance.

I know this makes things confusing, but in the Canadian models, there is a L/100KMS meter in the centre display (US ones have the same display in gallons?) and I notice that, while driving normally, the meter fluctuates as you would expect.

When I'm idling, however, the meter shoots to the maximum until I start driving normally again. Do all of you get the same behaviour?

Thanks in advance.

Mine actually does the opposite. at idle my MPG goes to "0", since I'm not moving but burning gas, so that is what should happen.
