well you are using 89 which will net you less MPG then 91 or 93.

Plus money is such a horrible way to tell us how much gas you are using.

Fill up the tank and reset the odometer. Then do some simple math to find tank MPG.

Yeah I always calculate my MPG everytime I fill up. Usually around 21 MPG depending on how much is highway driving.

Why you have a G35 coupe if you complain about gas?? Money+Gas shouldnt be a problem if you have this car.

Not expensive now. When it came out it was expensive way up there 40k+. Yeah the G uses up lots of gas what u expect from a HEAVY V6? When i first got my G in 2003, i got it for 43k. Few years later traded it in for a 06 G coupe.
