What's your best gas milage?
 
Best I've gotten in the city is 19.8. On the highway 24.7. When am I going to get the reported 24 or 28...lol. What about the rest of you? I try to drive in non-PDK in big traffic and streets with frequent lights and stop signs. But the freeway and long streets are PDK.

two "P" cars....
 
I've got two "P" cars...

the first "P" car got 59.8 MPG
and
the second "P" car got 25.5 MPG

one of them was a Prius:rolleyes: and the other a 911

Best so far in mine was 26.5mpg on a long road trip. Flat ground and running 75-80. It is a 6 speed

I am getting 18 with my 2009 C4S/PDK. Unfortunately, mostly city driving in Seattle area. I would love to open this up on a long trip

28 on hwy (best / usually 27)
20 average
12 worst - "sporting" around town :D

Best: 22.5, all highway, light as possible on throttle
Worst: 9.2, full revs in each gear, fast suburban driving

Best 28 highway. Worst 8.7 track.

Average, right around 14...every time I burn through a tank going out for a quick joy ride I stop and fill it back up before getting home with a smile on my face and think to myself that was the best fifty bucks I've spent!

Never figured out aggressive driving...3 tanks a day for a track event 60-70 miles each way to LS or Infineon, plus two and half hours of track time.

17.1 combined city/highway (with a "sprited" right foot).

neuneleven Feb 11, 2011 03:57 PM

30.5 mpg, on a 2 hour trip from gas station to a chicago hotel. Nearly all flat, no real hills. Travelled mostly between 55 and 60mph in PDK 7th till I hit the city....and before your tell me it's too slow for a 911, I'll mention it was raining cats and dogs. Not ashamed to admit I was scared of hydroplaning.:cool:

stockid Feb 11, 2011 05:06 PM

So far the worst is 9.2 ugh! The best is 28..hard to belive must have been going like 40 on the freeway.

EJ-997 Feb 11, 2011 05:06 PM

I got 30 once on flat road after about 20 miles of driving about 60-70. I have not been able to match that one. Usually get 27-28 on long drive.

stockid Feb 11, 2011 05:09 PM

Correction best 30.2 probably downhill without foot on gas...lol

tourbillon001 Feb 11, 2011 05:27 PM
