I didn't edit it either.. so a little confused here

Thank you very much for the information, very interesting advices, my friends. I am also interested in cars, and often find different information about each brand, and recently came across one car site fuelson.com . I found information about every favorite car brand! What consumption it has, and so on. I just want to buy a new car and think about my choice, I just buy a premium car and I would not like to buy a bad car for a lot of money, I think you understand me And so thank you so much for showing me how to improve fuel economy!

Track days are interesting. Somewhere under 1/2 tank ...near 1/4 tank, the "you need to refuel" warning pops up, with the red light. It's pretty annoying because it pops up over the Sport Chrono screen! Once you start driving 'normally' there is at least 100 miles left in the tank.
I know with my RX-7 you can get fuel starvation with sustained left hand corners. Nothing worse than the engine cutting out completely, and then coming back at 100% as you get off the gas mid corner I never let it get below 1/2 tank on track/autocross.

Not sure .2 would be better
Worse ptw ratio off turbo and on boost burning more fuel. Im lucky if i get 19 mpg in my golf r 2.0l. The boost is fun but I find i wind it out more than an na motor
I have never seen 30mpg on my 991.1s typically average 13-15mpg. 18-21 if I try, thought maybe fresh plugs and filters would help but they can't fix your foot.
Really want to tell myself better mileage is why I need a .2 but I love the sound and paid for part of mine.
Until I got my wife a diesel X5, my 996 turbo got the best, easily 20mpg even having fun.
They should have extended range tank options on all versions, convenient to go to gas stations less often.

Is fuel starvation an issue with the 991.2 when cornering hard and less than 1/2 tank of fuel?
I know with my RX-7 you can get fuel starvation with sustained left hand corners. Nothing worse than the engine cutting out completely, and then coming back at 100% as you get off the gas mid corner I never let it get below 1/2 tank on track/autocross.

I keep track of ending odometer reading, miles driven, and MPG every month for business tax purposes, but I usually average 19-20MPG in my ~14 mile daily commute.
I can definitely hit mid/high 20s when I pay attention doing highway driving.
Also I don't think the OP is bitching/complaining about MPG... more to say, these cars are fast, awesome and badass, AND can get decent MPG in various driving conditions. Hardly something to complain about, now under the JoBama administration and premium almost doubling in the last 2 months around here.
Hell, my 991.1 N/A engine can match or outperform my 2011 Audi A4 2.0T on highway driving MPG. Not too shabby.

I'm getting like 25 from mixed highway and back roads driving on weekends, so I'm happy. Even if I were to get only say 15-20 mpg, it wouldn't worry me as this is not my daily use vehicle anyway. I have much less enjoyable vehicles which have worse fuel efficiency, and others that have better than expected. So, it's a mixed bag of cars...

After driving 23,167 Km the average fuel consumption was 10.50 l. per 100 Km.
Maximum was 13.77 and minimum was 8.92.
No tracking; only driving on "normal" roads and highways.....
..... in the Swiss and French Alps (the roads, not the highways)
This is for a 991.2 Turbo S, mind you.
