If you look at how many horsepower & torque you car delivers, it is more than normal to get those figures!! I think I have less than yours. This is one of the price that you're expected to pay when getting a 350hp car!!!

230 miles is definetly pretty bad . My 43 gets at least 300 miles to tank. But what size tank do u have? Mine might be little bigger who knows

I get 256miles per tank
Since purchase, I haven't reset my After Reset - Trip computer and I get average 20.3mpg after 5500miles. There was one time I drove from Santa Monica to Palm Spring and back with average 28mpg @75mph average speed. You can get really good milage on the freeway speed with our car.

28 MILE PER GALLON?? geez... well... i don't think the FSS is accurate on the reading anyway. sometimes it will say that i have 25MPG on my drive from LA to SB (110 miles). but... it will still take up 1/4 of a tank. and... after that, from SB to santa ynes (40 Miles) took me another 1/4 tank. same style of driving...

i'm only averaging 16-18mpg on my car. but my foots pretty heavy though. my rear tires probably only have a couple thousand miles left. my car only has 7000 miles so far and no problems except for that 1500rpm jerk.
