Gas mileage... NO BS!
All highway driving i'll avg 380-400 or a little more before fill up. Usually calcs to around 28-30mpg. In town/highway (most my driving) gets around 300+ to a tank. All in town i get around 18-20mpg. Unfortunately it's been running a little bad lately (bad 02 i need to replace) so my last tank was only 260 miles on a full tank of hwy/city

I just got my brand new '02 SOM Z28 M6, all stock and i drove it back from Florida and got 27.8 mpg(the only time I checked it), with the cruise on 76 and the AC on low, so I was pretty damn impressed to say the least

Mods in sig:
I get between 22-25 depending on my right foot. Mostly highway driving, 45 of my 50 miles a day is all highway.
Next is Cam and Stall...there it goes!

Maybe i should have inquired as to heavily modded H/C cars... I know you M6 guysget killer mileage regardless... Us A4, H/C stalled guys do good to get 15-16 mpg... I thought i was special... 
The f-bod's are great none the less...IMO..

I'm hoping to make my C5 A4 a 10 second daily driver that still pulls 25mpg on the highway. I haven't quite figured it all out yet, but I think I'll get darn close.
Even if I fail @ the mpg, it's still amazing how efficient our motors are at making 350+ HP and 30 mpg with the right setup. We get better power and mileage than most semi-similar cars - S2000, Mustang, etc.
Everyone that I bump into that scoffs at my "sports car" is pleasantly surprised to find out that my little toy gets better mileage than their eco-sedans...haha
