It seems to be between 22 and22.7 mpg.

I don't' know why but there is a decidedly less mpg at the same speeds.

All jokes aside..My 2010 Nismo was running the above mentioned 24 - 24.5
mpg even 25 mpg with no wind and allot of Mother's carnauba car wax.. I
have seen a significant drop in mpg as of lately..One big change is my weight.
