well let us know what kinda mpg you're getting... The more I'm reading the more I'm getting a little worried haha. Don't wanna get 15 mpg..

 

I got you. I wonder if the G35 forum will get mad at me if I still post here with my G37... I hope not. Lol . But from what people have been telling me..

If your in a stop and go city / traffic most of the time, you will def see around 15-18mpg. And I'm talking about 90% tho stop and go (this could be red lights, traffic, stop signs, speed bumps, etc) . But I heard on the freeway and open roads, you can average 24-27mpg. I'm no genius and I don't own the car yet, and i for sure am not as knowledgeable with the G as you guys are, but from what I'm reading, its the best car for the value.

When I say that, compared to BMW , Audi, and Mercedes (sure, Infinit has the least luxury out of all of them), they compete with horse power, somewhat luxury, and the G KILLS EVERYONE ONE OF THOSE THREE in maint. cost / repairs. Ive been reading hearing that the maint cost for G's is liek Acuras and Lexus's, of course more than a Honda, but no where near the price of Bimmers and Audis. But then again, we got the horror story of the gasket and OP -_- so who knows. But I might get a 09 Sport G37 Sedan tomrorow. If i do, ill post pictures.

 

Exactly why I'm looking at em, can't find a 300 hp sedan for cheaper, plus it has some luxury. I'm in the same boat. Waiting on my Jeep to sell. I average 13-14 mpg freeway and city with the Jeep, so I want something that'll get me at least 20 ish average. The mpg and gasket issue has me wary though. I'm going to drive my buddies 330i tonight.. less hp, but looks better imo, better mpg, and drives sportier, and no known big issues (g35 has gasket issue, 335's have turbo and fuel pump issues, Audi is just too slow and mom-car-esque imo). I've only ridden in it not driven it though. like you said, the G is the clear winner minus the gasket issue!

 

Honestly, the only bad thing imo about the G is the MPG. Expect 14-16 running around the city and 20-23 on the freeway. Unless you want to drive like a granny and go 65mph max.

I usually end up averaging 20/21 mpg with a 25/75 city/hwy split.

 

I could handle 20 mpg.. any less would suck kinda though. I do about that same split. are you an X or regular?

 

I bought the car.. LMFAO. 2011 G37 Sport Sedan with Navi, Prem., and Sport package.

And for your 20MPG, I got 23.5mpg on my way home from the car (20 miles ish) and it was in 80% freeway (30% was traffic) and 20% city. And the 23.5 suprised the **** outta me hahaha. I was expecting like17 but when I seen 23.5 I was like

Hahaha here are pics of the car

 

What he is saying is right tho. In order to achieve good gas, you have to get to the posted speed and than just drive like not really like a granny but i guess you can say conservative. But that is if you want good MPG.

Overall, it can achieve good MPG but you have to WANT it. It can give you power but it eliminates the factor of GREAT to GOOD mpg. But you can still achieve it.
