Depends when was the last time you reset it 
. On a spirited 300-mile trip, with plenty of triple-digit fun, and hauling a$$ on the mountains, 21.5, which is not bad at all. My M3 returned 17 mpg on the same trip. A big improvement to me

I'd forgotten how much fun these cars are in the 5 years it had been since I had my C5. Seems like every kid in all kinds of cars wants to see me punch it. I've been able to withstand the temptation so far. Mostly.

DIC Now: 23.1
I have a minimum of 15 miles one way on county roads to get ANYWHERE - which is largely why I bought it. Don't understand why but my MPG went up .5 - .8 after my first oil change at 1 year and 4000 miles (64% life remaining.)
