Cool Must be me?

Pushing the car pretty hard and ranging from 16 to 24MPG. Only drops into single digit on the track (~8MPG).

City driving kills the mileage... I could get 34 MPG on the highway at 60mph... I have a manual CS2....

Use to get 17 mpg in Miami, mostly Coral Gables area. Pretty much slow but crazy traffic, particularly on Friday and Saturday nights. Never got 10.

I've never seen single digits. I average around 18 with a lot of city driving. On the highway, the best I've seen is 29.5. That's with PDK and about 2500 total miles.

Well yeah. Redlining in every gear will tend to drive mileage down.

Had 9mpg while auto crossing. But usually average 25 mpg in mixed highway/city driving. As high as 34 mpg high speed driving (70-80 mph).

I have a manual and I always have it in sport plus. I never get more than 14-15 MPG in DD mostly on streets. I refuse to have the car in regular mode (with auto stop/start) just to save fuel. I feel that I paid a s----load of money for all those suspension features that I want to use.

I average below 20 as well, I have a 4S MT with PSE and the sport button pushed most of the time. I can't imagine a 4S getting mileage in the high 20s.
