I cant pull 270+ a tank like Jon94Z can, but if I take it easy, it'll get well over 200.

With the few mods in my sig, my 6-spd gets ~28ish mpg on the hwy (usually going around 80) and about 15 around town. That all depends on my driving style though.

On the 2001 Hot Rod Power Tour, I averaged 27mpg over 2400 miles in my M6 car with a stock motor and 4.10 gears.

There were long stretches where a train of us were doing 80-90mph for long periods of time.
