My Z is netting me 18-19mpg because I drive 85% city.

If it makes you feel any better, my co-worker's 5.0 Mustang is netting him around 16MPG for 65/35 city/hwy.

I normally get around 12 MPG all city, hills, etc., and that means I enjoyed the fuel. Pay to play.

I just got 15 MPG and I am unhappy since this reflects driving slowly, being stuck behind tourists.

That is why 8 MPG at the track is so much fun.
