Default Gas Milage
Just curious - what kind of gas milage are you guys getting. My computer says I am in the 14 mpg range. I know this will vary with how much the car is pushed but I would like to get a general consensus. thanks

Thanks paul, Obviously our cars do much better on the open road. I got about 20 on my trip to Orlando. Wonder what the gas milage is at 600hp.

Mike, I'm staying in the mid 12s unless I hit the freeway for any distance. A long trip and it's easily over 20.

I'm about 15 mpg... Unless I really get on the car...

At the track, it's pretty bad.. Probably only about 5 mpg.

For trips I can get 26 mpg, but like Jeff it goes to 5 if I really get on it. Not bad for 480hp though.

My best hiway mileage is about 22mpg. That seems a little on the low side... I think Bill's 26 mpg sounds like where it should be (reasonably steady 75mph or so). Bill... any tips?

I seem to average around 12.5, but most of my driving is "spirited" driving on windy isolated backroads here in the great Northwest.

What is that cruise control thingy for?

"Wonder what the gas milage is at 600hp."

Between 4-7 mpg on the track. But its worth it.
