I did my first serious road trip in the vette last weekend. We averaged just over 27mpg over an 863 mile run in an A4 with an average speed of 64mph (and, no I didn't have the cruise control on at 65 the whole time ).

My 99 6spd FRC does really good too. I get over 30 on the highway. It is a couple of mpg better than my 94 6spd daily driver.

I am impressed by these cars. great performance and mileage too.
