Not heavy traffic although still rush hour and lots of stop lights.

I don't exactly go easy on it and have averaged about 13.5L/100km thus far.

I only drive city, and I'm getting 17 to 18 L/100km on it.

I have 1700kms on mine, use 87 only.

8000km on my GT PP now. I live and work in downtown Edmonton, so commuting involves more stop than go. 18-20L/100KM is normal for me.

just got the 5.0 GT 50th anniversary pkg
120Km on her so far...the dealer put in regular gas and told me its fine to put regular gas I would feel guilty putting in regular (can't wait to empty this 1st tank of gas) what type of gas is everyone running?

Congrats on the ride!
I run 91 although running 87 is fine too. I try to run shell vpower but there's a pioneer station closest to me so that where I typically fill up.

I run only 91 in mine, now with 7600 on it in 8 weeks

Just did a day road trip out to Tofino and back. 537kms and I averaged 9.7L/100km.

That's damn fine for a 435hp car.

14 L/100km in the first 1000km, mostly city some highway, I drive it reasonably during break in period.

I've been getting better lately. 12.8L/100 in the city driving like a granny 80% of the time. Started using Hughes 91. Heard somewhere you get better mileage with their gas as they don't add any extra cleaners...not sure of that's true but I seem to be getting better mileage.

Interesting.. ill try hughes next time. I usually do shell91 or petro91. Still 14 or 15 city driving at 60kmh. Did a roadtrip to banff and got 9.2l for most of highway driving.

I have to admit that I'm having EXTREME difficulty driving it reasonably all the time. The machine begs to be stepped on.

And by "all the time", I mean "most of the time".

And by "most of the time", I mean "occasionally".

Aahah true i feel the same. Also i didn't buy a v8 to obsess about fuel economy. Still its nice to learn how everyone is doing.

I have about 600kms on my car - only 200 are mine, car got used a lot for "test drives". Anyway I got about 15L/100km today with a 150km drive this afternoon. I did notice that having it on Sport mode caused a lot more consumption than Normal. I guess that is to be expected on an automatic car since the upshift points are higher and rev-matching downshifts in Sport.

I use 94 octane Chevron which is 0% Ethanol. It's an excellent fuel - it is refined this way with no octane booster at the pump. I toured their refinery about 10 years ago as they were one of my customers at the time.
