Got some pretty impressive MPG!!!

I normally get 19-24 around town, it's hilly here and I do alot of short trips.

I went to see my sister at her college last night, 2 hour 140 mile trip on the GS parkway, 75-80 MPH and pulled merged hard onto ramps a few times...

29.3

I was thrilled! it purred like a kitten the whole time

Back when I had my 3.4, I drove from NJ-FL a few times and was getting better than 35. If there is one thing I almost miss about that engine, that's it.

Re: Got some pretty impressive MPG!!!

I think if I were driving a little slower (65-70) I could of pulled over 30+

I wonder how much better the M5 transmition would of been since my car already has the highway loving 3:08 gears for an A4

Either way, I'm pleased, My mom's 01 Jetta 2.0 A4 gets 29 and my sisters 03 Jetta 1.8T A5 gets 31 so I'd say the camaro isnt so bad!

Not too shabby. With my 4.10s I usually get about 28 city and 22 highway but every once in a while I'll get 32-36 . Guess those times I sat in traffic less and didn't get on it as much.
