G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods

Medium foot, non X, 18 MPG mostly city. Gas mileage came down a touch when I swapped in the 3.5 differential. Car is an 05 with 65K and lightly modded.
Forgettaboutit, I like to leave em in the dust. One time I noticed a mortorcycle pull up next to me (his front tire) and without looking and the light turned green, I put my lead foot down and kicked his ***. The problem was that it was a motorcycle cop and I got a ticket. lol, I will never do that again. Lesson Learned.
I've got an 03.5 5AT sedan. It's got 152k miles and i get usually 22-25 MPG on primarily highway. If I do more city driving I usually get 18-19 mpg. The mileage really improved once I got the plenum spacer and new exhaust. Weird huh?
squarely in medium foot category, 80/20 hwy/city, got 21.0 on my last tank. Was getting a little less than that on previous tanks (avg 20.2), but I think dramatic increase in average temps where I am has contributed to slight incresases in mpg. Car is 06x.
Wow! I'm glad I posted this thread because I was worried my avg mpg would be much less since I'm a medium as well. I really like the x so if I can get about 400 miles per tank I think I'll go for it. Else where in this forum owners complain about an avg of 16-17 mpg.

I stopped paying attention a long time ago because I've come to the conclusion that it's just bad... Sometimes less bad, sometimes more bad, but all together just bad. The only mileage i track these days anymore is how quickly I tear through tires... Now that one's a real kick in the b@lls.
I noticed when i was driving mosly Hwy at 65 mph i could easly get 400 a tank but now that ive done some mods and drive more streets i get a little over 350 and it also depends on how my foot is feeling also
