idk according to the new mpg scale the supra turbo gets 15/22, IS300 (auto or manual)gets 16/23, 5at g35 gets 16/23 and 6mt gets 17/24, gs430 is supposed to be 16/21

my bro never did very well in his 92 sc300 5 speed, but it also had near 200k on it...got like 14-17mpg from what i recall

 

My LS gets 20+ in the city no problem and that's being pretty heavy on it and easily 25+ on the highway) but it hasn't seen much highway yet.

 

what year is it? the new IS250 and 350s are supposed to get decent mpg

 

His is like a 91 or 93 or something like that.

 

interesting

 

Not an IS man, LS.

LS400 4.0 V8 1UZ engine.

 

My old 330ci used to get mid 20s and my gfs 04 tl gets between 18-20mpg. Id never see something like that in the g unless i do all highway haha.

 

i know its not an IS

not sure why it gets better mpg then a G, it isnt really supposed to

 

Oh I misread your post about the Is250 and 350.

Yea it shouldn't get that mileage at all. It also has 265km on it and runs like new!

 

yeah lexus's tend to do that

then again I see a lot of very high mileage maximas so G35s should be able to rack up some high mileage as well, as long as you keep the oil topped off..lol

 

I sold my girlfriends 4th gen maxima with like 400,000kms and it ran mint lol

 

a slight vibration when going from neutral to drive on my 5AT.
not fast enough.
PITA to change out lights
Creaks and rattles

that's about it for now.. =/

 

Adding to my list:

Prone to rattling
Interior trim pieces are crappy and dull (on the ENTIRE car for '03 and pre-updated '04 has ONE piece of aluminum, and the rest is just black or painted 'aluminum look')
Door actuators failing
The design of the car kinda gets old (maybe I need aesthetic mods)

 

I saw a 00-01 maxima for sale a few months back with like 450,000 miles(~724,000km)
