I get about 280 until my gas light goes on. But I'm insecure and always fill when the light comes on. How many miles or gallons of gas do we have approximately left after the light comes on anyways?
I easily do around 400 a tank
Guess I'm not driving it hard enough but when gas prices these days who would
When my gas light comes on I go ahead and stop and fill up and usually pump like 17-18gl so I got at least 2gl left I think

All G35's have a 20 gallon tank. The fuel light shows up when there's only 4 gallons left in the tank, which explains why you can only fill up the car with 16gallons of gas. Therefor, you need to divide the total miles driven by 16 to get a more accurate reading.
420 miles/16 gals = 26.25 mpg

i got 355 (all city) before i filled up w/ 15.1 gallons. i never let the rpms get passed 2600 when i shift. it was hard to do since people in panama city dont know how to do the damn speed limit. they usally do ten under in the fast line.
280 tops here... Thats sad lol
BTW does this car have that thing in the guage cluster that tells you how many miles of driving you have left before empty? Like the same thing the 350z's have.

im lucky to hit 200 miles before the light comes on... but that's supercharged and with a heavy right foot. before F/I, i was getting 240 or so... that's with almost 100% city driving.
