How many miles can you drive your Z with full tank of gas?
I got 367 miles out of my last full tank of gas. Drove it until I had about 10 miles worth of gas left.

On my last trip from DC to Florida I got almost 485 on each full tank. I was averaging about 27 mpg most of the way. Not bad for a sports car!

i get 400 miles and with 40 miles to empty but i don't like taking that risk of running it down all the way.

Hmmm, 370 is the best so far. But I've only got around 1200 miles or so on it so far...

^ i get higher than 406 when i fill the tank full.. from mixed driving, well mostly city driving, i get about 380 miles.. I've never driven my Z on the highway to go from full to empty so i wouldn't know what my max would be.. plus on the highway, i'd be too tempted to floor it too many times to find out anyway..
