Wow, i only get 300 max 350... there was 1 week I was sick, and I got about 400+ on the tank and I was amazed ! I had this habit to reset the meter on each tank (from being a student and driving a corolla) so I still do that but I finished my tank once at 280 ish lol ... its Fun to red line the first couple of gears :P

then again, if I was to drive a prius, I would complain about fuel economy

im using 60 liters to go just over 600 km running about 50/50 city/highway
I got slightly better on a trip to Kingston from the GTA cruising at 120kms
with an ocasional squirt to 200 every so often to ummm pass the slow pokes

I generaly shift at 3000 or less when daily driving and run it up to 4000 when
being slightly agressive... and of course 6000 when i feel the need :P

my car has 65000 kms on it and i was running the hightest octane at petro canada

I was getting 380-400kms a tank 100% City Driving. Then i put in Lucas Upper Cylinder Lubricant and Fuel Injector cleaner in and now i get from 440-460kms a tank. I should say that the weather started warming up here in Vancouver when i put it in, but at $5 a bottle im sold on it.

Anyone else recommend this product. My G is getting up there in kilometer-age and could use an automotive cleansing.

I stopped tracking fuel consumption because:

excessive fuel consumption refers to technical condition of car. meaning it is disorder and needs repair

No. That's not necessarily the case. These are performance automobiles. Relative to other cars, they drink gas like an alcoholic. Very thirsty. Most yung 'uns bying on are surprised to find that they are only getting 13 mpg in town racing around....
