Average 325- 350 Miles Per Gas Tank?

Ok, i'm kinda bummed by the gas mileage I get in my g35. 30 bucks for fill the tank. Over 17 gallons and I only got 350 miles on my first tank and 325 on my 2nd tank. I get about 375 miles per tank in my prelude and it only holds 14 gallons.

Is this average for g users?

You're driving a sports car with almost 300 hp. If you want mpg get a sentra, non-SE-R. Our car destroys all of the cars it gets compared to in the mpg category.

I get 200-230 mpg. Can it be that low, even if I have a heavy-foot? I have about 5k on my car. Feel like somethings wrong with my car....

I get about 22mpg when I can keep my foot under control, but I usually get around 19mpg. Not bad considering how I drive.

That's almost exactly what I've gotten so far at 4k miles. I'm starting to get used to it. I came from a 98 V6 Accord coupe that got around 21-23mpg, so the drop off isn't humongous. I had to get used to getting premium fuel though.

I haven't really looked into calculating it but I do notice the car gets fairly decent mileage for highway travel. But I didnt get the car for the gas mileage so it doesnt worry me that its so low.

Re: Average 325- 350 Miles Per Gas Tank?

Well I almost didn't believe it but I got 400+ miles on my full tank and that's without hitting the reserve. I use to get terrible milage until I past the 2500 mile mark. I went on a recent road trip to Vegas full tank gave me about 325 miles due to a heavy foot.
