LOL! My fill-ups are usually 62L...guess I need to go futher below the slash

I've never gone on a long road trip with the G. If I did it would be impossible to not have the air on or drive agressively.

My car is well tuned, I run higher PSI, 91 octane and synthetic oil. For 300hp this mileage is OK for daily driving, but not too many people claim G's are good on gas.

FYI, my buddy in a '08 G37 gets the same mileage as me (and we drive roughly the same 9-5 routes everyday).

If you're getting 450km on 62L, IN TORONTO, then that's not bad at all (13.7L/100km) for city with some aggressive driving.
Toronto has some serious traffic issues and I avoid the area like the plague. I have to go to Sick Kids a few times a year and I cringe every time I head out to get there.

The low fuel warning light doesn't come on the same all the time. If you're driving aggressive or in a manner where you are getting low MPG then it will come on sooner than if you are driving efficiently. The car looks at the type of fuel economy your achieving and calculates remaining mileage.

I drove 450km yesterday, all highway and I have 1/3 tank left.
Was averaging 130km/h the whole way.

Might not break 600km though since I got some city driving in downtown Toronto.

I get around 400km, but I'm not sure.
I am unable to fill it up the tank to full, and sometimes it will go from 1/4 empty to 1/2full from one stop light to the next.

Also, nothing lights up in mine when the gas is low? lol

I get approximately 500km per full premium tank on my 2004 g35x, which I calculate to be approximately 5km per dollar.

450km all-city or 650km all-highway here... or 550km average with mixed driving.

This is with a low-mileage (90,000km or 55,000mi) '06 6MT sedan, and I don't drive at all like a granny.

No two city/hwy combos are exactly alike.
For example, my city driving is suburban Waterloo into downtown Kitchener every day. A short 15-20minute commute. I still average about 50km/hr. Whereas a person in downtown T.O. might average 15km/hr due to all the lights and traffic, which eats up fuel.
It all depends on your situation. For best comparisons we should also include our average speed and time driving but that's getting too carried away IMO.

I always put in $50 every time i fill up (shell 91 v power) which at these prices (~$1.45/L) gives me about 35L give or take. With a mix of City/Hwy I get between 260-300km per fill up.

I fill at about 550km, and the light doesn't come on. I do alot of highway driving, and the gas gauge is messed like so many others out there so I never know my real gas level.

450~500 km/tank

I never maxed out my tank, so I can only assume. But it would do 450~500 km with full tank. As I never saw the gas warning light coming on, I've no idea how much it has in reserve.

I often drive from/to Sarnia to/from Toronto (~300 km on HWY 402 & 401) and it would eat up 60-65% of the tank. I cruise at 120~130 km/h most times and do accelearte up to 160 few times on a trip.

Ive been filling up recently and ive been gettting about 512km on 59 liters, and 425km on 54 liters with suburban driving in traffic in the mornings and some highway driving, but my gas light comes on way too early. When i fill up, i can only fill up 59L and the second time 54L and my tank is FULL, but our tanks are about 77 litres, thats a whole other 18 litres and 23 litres still left in the tank.

I have only had my 2008 G35xS for about a month now, and I only get 360 km on a weekly basis.

However, I already got the engine oil light, so I am going to change my own oil this week and see if that makes a difference.

The highest I got thus far was 498 km, and 260 km was a trip from Brampton to Wasaga beach and back.

At this point I can't even imagine getting 700 km out of a full tank =S
