E500 Gas Mileage?

Can anyone report on city and highway gas mileage? I thought there was a thread discussing this, but I don't see it any more.

Thanks.

I have about 5000 miles on my E-500 and have averaged 19.6 overall since I purchased the car. On a recent trip of ~ 1700 miles I averaged 23.9 mpg for the entire trip and got as high as 26 mpg for certain segments. Most of this was interstate driving at 80-84 mph.

Overall, I am very pleased with the mileage and performance of my car. (I just wish it had the NAV system which I ordered last November)

I have been getting almost identical numbers as Double Eagle. If you keep your foot in it around town, though, look out! That gauge drops pretty fast. I'm getting about the same mileage as I had on my 2001 S4.
