I drive like a grandma most of the time about 60 highway/40 city and have yet to break ~300 on a full tank. MPG on this car sucks but I still love it.

I still have my 01 corolla =P

Yes, I have a car problem
I like having a G35 body, but it feels like a COROLLA in gas mileage I get between 26-29 MPG. Driving 80 hwy /20 city.

Yea, I just gave up my C320 for the G35.... Basically pretty much comparable in mileage with the G getting a little better on the hwy. I love the G, no matter what the mileage is, but it's bareable.

I just checked this -- reset Trip A when I filled my tank up. Pushed it as far as I dared with the gas light on today before filling up again.

I got just over 400 miles to the tank. I do about two-thirds highway, one-third city.

Yeah sounds like you are either redlining your car or not maintaining it.

When i first purchased my car i was getting 14mpg after redlining all the gears from light to light. It was fun but gas got expensive.

80% hwy 20% city

Drove 393 miles on 13.11 gallons do the math.

1.Dont drive like u stole it
2.use cruise control..helps
3.Maintain car!...When you take care of car, it will take care of you..Gas wise im not complaining...Getting same as my civic..well almost.

BTW--Picture yourself as the car. What do you think that you can do to it to make it lighter? More fuel efficient?
I dont know what you have on your car or how you treat it that is why i made last statement.

The gas mileage is not that great.

In the summer (rolling on 20's) I get 450km+ (280 miles) with a mix of highway (80%) and city (20%)

In the winter (rolling on stock 17's / winters) I still get an easy 450km+ (280 miles) with a mix of highway (80%) and city (20%)

Both are driving approx 40km with the gas light on. I have had times where I get over 400 before the light comes on. I don't know what the reserve is in the tank (at the point where the gas light comes on) but I don't believe 40km or so is pushing it.

I don't see a difference in mileage, but can get 450km on every tank.
