I got 31.5 driving 50-55. I get 23-25 city. Heavy stop and go 21 city.
Keep below 2500k best mpg. Watch the rocket starts, Z has enough torque to pull away easily.

Also, I only use ShellVPower.

TRUE!!! It has been said several times, if you have this car, you probably shouldn't be worrying about your gas. Plus, you gotta have fun.

FYI...I have tried to get over 23mpg in the city, and it is relatively hard. HWY is no problem, just throw it in cruise control and your good to go.

PRIUS vs M3 which gets better gas mileage?

IMO, it's bias. Who would drive the Prius hard while not having to stop as they tested on Top Gear. I have driven a rented Prius and it does exactly what it is suppose to do, save gas. That includes the stop and go traffic and that also means having to just let the car cruise to charge the battery so that you don't have to use the gasoline engine. Gas mileage is what I'm arguing about, not enjoyment of drivability.

Great. Give me the profit in gas!

I printed out "FREE GAS." No disclosure. That means you give it to me or false advertising!

gas money = entertainment expense

My compromise is instead of spending money to ride go carts and go to amusement parks, etc. I'd rather spend my money on gas and whip my car around somewhere.
