After break in my mileage improved significantly.
Currently with mods I get 20-22 very little stop and go and I do drive Agressively on every country road that twists/turns I can find---thats why I bought the car!
Noteworthy: I did experiment with different octane gasoline: 89 decreased my mpg to 18-20 while 90-94 were all about the same---give me 20-22 all around...Honestly I did not notice a performance difference....But with the cost difference its a wash when you do the math and Im sure its better for your car to have the highest octane available....
Just my 2 cents

Bought it with 7 miles on the odom... up to just under 600 miles and I put 313.5 miles since the last fill-up.... topped her off today and it took 16.3 gallons = 19.2 mpg. About 80% of those miles are non highway miles. I'm also driving the car to enjoy the fun factor so this will probably be the first and last time I check mileage. Just wanted to see where it was as in her early days.
