Post your gas mileage CITY/HIGHWAY and year/trans
14-17 mpg City (depending on how much WOT I do)
23 mpg Hwy
After 10k mi., I am fairly satisfied with my G35's mpg...it's pretty much as advertised (17/24 I believe). The way I see it is after seeing the car's sticker (and/or doing the reseach) and the G35's est. mpg (which you know will probably be lower with hard "sports sedan" driving), if you're concerned about the mpg and the costs, then don't buy it.
With that said, I love my G35 AND my wife's '03 FX35 (16 mpg / 20 mpg Hwy) but I think our next SUV will be a hybrid!

05 6MT - still under 2,000 miles.
60% highway/ 40% city ... 20-22mpg
I'm not really stuck in bumper to bumper very often, and I'll typically just skip gears to help skimp on mileage. I'm road tripping this weekend and would hope to get 23 or 24 just cruising at 75 the whole time

2005 Auto 'X' - four months of ownership - 1900 miles so far
Based on my logging, i.e. miles driven between fill-ups, getting 16-17 mpg.
I do roughly 50% hwy & 50% local. I am usually gentle on the pedal and will only gun it on occasions.
Hope I will be seeing 20+ like some of you guys soon.

Getting 21.5 to 22.0 MPG in combination 30% city/70% highway miles.
Car has 18,000 miles on it now. Took one long road trip (1700+ miles) when the car had approx. 1600 miles on it, ran 94 MPH (cruise control limit) much of the time, averaged 78 MPH including approx. 40 minutes for gas stops/refreshment - got 23+ MPG on that run, probably would be better now.
The car is really starting to run like a "scalded dawg" now, as it breaks in better.
My $0.01

2005 A/T with 4000 miles (yikes, not even two months old)....I am currently averaging 14-17 (haven't paid attention to where I drive, mostly highway, I'd say).....my foot is set for WOT at all given times (meaning, I rarely drive my car easy).

About 80% freeway, 20% surface streets (though I'm in LA so "freeway" = stop 'n go traffic)
Getting almost 19MPG (has improved slightly lately, according to my car's fuel mileage gauge)
It's a 2005 A/T w/2000 miles
