Gas mileage

dP3NGU1N · 11-16-2012, 12:35 PM

I don't know how gas mileage is affected in HI (due to elevation?), however, I'm not broken in yet and pushing 23mi/g. I heard gas mileage goes up after the engine is properly broken in.

About 80% of my driving so far has been on highway.

Our city blocks in Honolulu is very short (filled with stops and stoplights) compared to many cities in the continental 48.

OP, please keep in mind, I'm in break in period and 90% of my driving is from Kaimuki to downtown area, it's 15.5 mpg, real tracking of gallons filled and miles driven. On my trip computer it is showing 15.3, very close. For a comparison 04 G35 Coupe (auto) was getting approx 16.

Omg, I'm going to love this car!!

So from what I'm getting... I should expect 16-19mpg in mixed driving?.. I'm stoked! I get like 15mpg on avg with my m35 ><!

I'm in the process of selling my car, and purchasing a Z. Hopefully all goes through smoothly.

Hopefully it all goes well for you, the 370Z community in Hawaii is growing quite fast!
