300+/-. I drive it like i stole it. I didn't buy the car for gas mileage. I bought the car cause it's a fun car to drive.

nowadays, i get 4gallons - city avg. 50+ then the light goes on, if its mix, i say 70-80, i dont LIGHT to Light race drive either...but i do have 20s on, im avg city 15+-mpg

and CAN the PRE-05 VQs really run on 87-89???? i know my EX had a 98 QX4 w da VQ35 in it and she ran 87 after she became a broke-***, couldn't afford 91, and it ran fine.

interesting....
if your getting less than 275 per tank, get a tune up, fresh oil change, air filter, plugs, itll be worth it, rather than dumping money at the tank..
I read pre rev up can run 87 but with reduced mpgs I wonder by how much, and what performance hit would it be.

It also really depends on what mix of ethanol you have in your gas at the pump... In my last car I would get 390-410 if I wasn't too hard on it, on a tank of 100% gas... Now with this E10 **** I was lucky to get 330...

Yea yea, I know only 10% ethanol (while ethanol has 34% less energy than gas) should only equal an approximate 3.4% lower MPG, but I am certain that E10 or ethanol blend gases (besides E85 which is a whole other story) do more harm than good on the motors and mpg...even if these blends are releasing fewer emissions per gallon you have to use more gallons to get the same result...(kinda ironic)

But, after all, we are just subsidizing the corn farmers incomes...
