I averaged 21.9 MPG on my 60 mile drive home from pickup at the dealer in my GT3. I'm guessing right around 25 MPG once broken in and only hwy miles.

I tend not to go by mpg as much as just miles per full tank. Just got 320 miles off one tank with mixed city and highway diving, I've got the extended range tank too - not bad at all. If I drive with a heavy foot, I can get about 150 miles too

No offense but if you're averaging over 10 mpg you're driving like a grandma.....

High MPG kills these engines. Will void warranty.

Someone asked me once what kind of gas mileage my 458 got. I just looked at them.

It takes all 580HP of a Turbo S to get decent MPG.



There's no illusions (or cares) the GT3T will come close.

LOL, Did you send this from jail!? Impressive!!
BTW I had a gas n pit stop as well. But I had to really work the off throttle "coast feature" to see 31.6mph, plus we have BIG Texas-size gallons in Canada!
