believe it or not thats what im getting on the highway...mind you the highway where i got this number doesnt really have many hills and is mostly straight and i have been able to repeat that type of gas mileage every time in the Z on the same stretch of highway from Fullerton, CA to san diego, CA. and not to be rude to anyone, but when i'm cruising on the highway i'm not trying to be one of those retarded speed racer guys that fly's by you doing 100+, im just enjoying the comfortable ride that the Z can and does offer.

Nobody is talking about doing 100mph fly by's but it is a sports car. you know this... right? No offense but i find it hysterical, guys like you buy Z's and want to drive them like civics. then civic owners want to act like they are driving Z's. you can buy what you want but imho, these cars are made for go and very little show... but to each is own. i think that the reverse car purchasing people do is retarded. if you wanna cruise? buy a car made for cruising. like v6 muscle or an accord. Again, just my opinion. but opinions are like a-holes.

What? The 370z isn't a purpose built race car. You don't have to constantly be driving it like you stole it. There's no reason to be hooning it on a long interstate when you're just trying to get somewhere. When I'm on the highway going to class or work I'm not trying to race people, nor am I trying to wind out every gear. Just driving normally nets me 27mpg as I posted in another thread -- and that's usually doing 70/80. I imagine that if you did 65 on a good road and were gentle on the throttle, you could do even better, especially if you're on a flat road or going downhill.

Unless, of course, you're one of those ******** that weaves in and out of traffic. :p

finally, somebody that actually gets what i'm talking about...dont get me wrong i do get on it every now and then, but why bother unless im going to be going all out on a track, just doesnt make sense at all to have the mentality of having to go all out and wind out every gear JUST because it's a sports car, but like a person who shall not be named said, opinions are like a-holes :D
