Default First Report - 2012 911 GTS

I have been following various threads related to fuel and oil consumption on the DFI models. Yesterday, I changed the oil and put my 2012 GTS away for the winter. Here are a few points from my experience to date.

Total miles driven since new: 4040
Oil consumption: Down 1 bar
Average fuel consumption: 19.61 MPG City/Hwy
Best Hwy fuel consumption: 25.06 MPG
On track fuel consumption: 10.79 MPG
Track day at 500 miles - Short shifted at 5000 rpm and used full throttle in Sport+ Mode
Problems to date: NONE

Jealous about the MPGs! I primarily drive short commutes to and from work and errands, but my old-timer is getting about 16mpg around town. Oh well, the sound is worth it.

That's just sad. But, I'm glad you're liking the GTS.
It IS an amazing car.
