How many miles do you get on a full tank?
I get between 370-380ish on average. I think that's low. I don't even stomp on it besides entering the interstate. I drive mostly on the iinterstate too. Fuel leak perhaps?

I would love to see those numbers. I get 300 at best, but then I do love the loud pedal. 13 GS, 6MN.

Probably a valid question, but honestly, I rarely look and don't really care. Funny thing, I actually like pulling into the gas station and topping off because of all the attention the car brings. I find it amusing.

Not knowing what you drive, how you drive it, or how much gas you put IN makes it a tough question to answer.
My '11 GS mn6 gets as good as 28mpg when I freeway drive like an old man. I usually see 24/25 hiway and who cares city. YMMV

Sometimes I check the reading on the DIC, here in Florida I see 345-365. When I was in Colorado, Idaho and Montana last year I saw 450-500 with instant readings of 35 MPG at 80 MPH, due to the altitude I guess. Noted high test was only 90 octane in the region while 93 here in the flat-lands.

How many miles do you get on a full tank?
Can't really answer that because I never let the tank get below 1/4.
Combined city/hwy driving I average 20.8 mpg. All Interstate driving gets me an average of 26.2 mpg. (05 M6)

Since Dec, 2007, I have averaged 22.4 mpg or just short of 400 miles per tank full. All types of driving with as little as 250-300 when stuck in town or driving aggressively, to nearly 500 when on the highway and long trips. Drive 80-85 on long trips and see 30 mpg. Don't really care what mileage is as car was not purchased for that trait but it is interesting it is my economy car based on mileage driven and fuel used!!����

300 at the most. Usually average 20 mpg. As others said, didn't buy it for mileage!

I don't get it. Every time I read these threads I do not and have not got anything close to the MPG'S you guys claim to get. My 2012 base MN6 which I bought new got 10-12 MPG in city driving. My 2013 GS MN6 ( also bought new ) gets 9-11 MPG. I don't drive either cars hard and we're talking stop lights on every other corner as the description as city driving. I do get the 28 MPG as advertised on the highway though. Am I special?

I didn't buy the Vette based on mpg. I was just shocked to see 300+miles. I didn't expect it to be that low.
