MPG - real life numbers
Hi. I have noticing that I run about 17mpg on an average, I do drive a lot, mixed highway and city. Just curios if it's within normal limits. Seems like I'm filling up almost every 3-4 days

Yeah. If I'm doing good I make about 17mpg. 997 GTS, for reference.

That sounds right. To achieve higher mileage you need long freeway runs at reasonably constant speed (below 80MPH).

My cars computer says I'm getting 19-19.5...
My math says its more 17-18. (Miles on trip-odo / gallons of gas purchased)

I have a 2006 C2S with 36k miles...
1. I average 12mpg driving strictly in SF city traffic
2. If I drive primarily on the highway I'll get ~22mpg
2. Mix of city/hwy driving gets me ~17mpg

Same here. I've been tracking it with the Fuel Buddy app. In the time I've been tracking, I have done 27 fill-ups, and averaged 17.24 mpg. The car is a daily driver and I do mostly city, with some highway mixed in.
Car is a 09 Targa 4S, and I'm in California, which limits me to 91 octane gas. I believe I would probably have slightly better gas mileage if I were allowed to run 93 octane.

I make frequent trips from Huntsville to Atlanta (250 miles) each way. It is the only time I really track my milage. It is a mix of two lane roads and highway. In my 86 911 I get 24-26 Mpg and in my 997.2 C2S I get 26-27.5 Mpg.

I'm about 15mpg US (15.4L /100km) or 18mpg UK.
Lots of stop-and-go...

Mid 20s on long road trips in normal mode. How outrageous is that for such a great sports car!
20 mpg mixed usage. Extensive use of the Sport Plus mode, MPGs go down, smiles go up.
