I get about 250 when i have no bars left. I have no bars and the light is on and when i fill up its only 11 gallons and i beleive the tank is 13.2. Kinda sucks havin to fill up every week. With my 2000 gts i only had to fill about once every two weeks and i drove that car pretty hard.

I've gotten a max of 320-ish all highway. I literally thought I was going to run out of gas though. I was in the middle of north carolina traveling on Christmas Day and had to travel quite a few exits before finding a station that was open.

I usually average like 270-280 or so, but this last tank full I only got 220. =( I suppose the high speed runs and the race with the porsche (not in public populated area) didn't help this last tankfull,e lol oh well it was fun.

I agree! My commute is only about 8 miles each way and I'm doing > 70% freeway driving, but I only get about 200 miles a tank. That equates to something like 16mpg.

Oh well, I still love driving it!

Freeways in LA and Orange County is the same as city streets, mostly stop and very little go.
