What's your average MPG for your 370z?

I get 20's on the highway 17-19 on local streets. Although I'm still breaking in so maybe I'll see some improvements later on, probably not because I'll really open up

Mine's a TT daily driver. It doesn't get in boost as often in city street driving, and is more likely to get in boost when getting on the onramp.

The worse is a little over 19 MPG, average around 21-22, and highest (highway) is 24 MPG. I'm pretty sure the car has the capability to get in the 15 MPG range on a "non-daily" driving basis.

Normal driving i got 19 on average w a heavy foot.

I tried seeing what was possible in around town driving. no long trips or long hwy runs. i averaged 25 driving like a grandma.

took a drive up to conn once, about 4 hours away, and stopped twice (looking at trucks for my dad) and got 27 and that was using 2/3 of a tank.

Here is what I found with my Z. Driving at 65 for a little more than an hour I averaged 32mpg. Doing 75-80 I was getting about 25 or so.

haha, you beat me there. At the race track i get about 8-9 mpg. I need to push it harder. j/k

Great for you folks that can get over 20 mpg. I can't get 18 mpg when I drive it to work on a few occasions - which is why my Z isn't my daily driver. Sitting in traffic, stop and go easily reduces the MPG to 17 or less as I keep my S-Mode on in my MT.

If I drive freeway with no traffic then i can easily get 22 mpg. But I like to shift at 4K to hear the exhaust open up. Fun car, but def a great price to pay if used as a daily driver.
