last I checked I was drivin like a grandpa, and got 14.
now, my car sees lots more rpm's and engine braking, and overall irresponsible driving, so I gotta be gettin close. maybe low 12's.
with my 3.73's and a converter comin up, 10's for sure

I can get 15-16 but I typically get 13. This last fill up I got 10 and that was with 75% throttle!!! Not bad for 450rwhp!

I live about a mile from work so I either take my bike or the street car (public transport).
That said, I usually only drive my car in the city grab something to eat. I've been averaging just over 9 mpg but that is spending just as much if not more time at red lights than actually driving.
9 mpg isn't so bad when you put it into perspective, I've only used 1/8 of a tank in the last 2 weeks
