More like about 18-19 mpg, which is still pretty good for mixed use. I thought about that 35 mpg and said "hmmm" because on of my daily drivers is a 2004 V35C Coupe, here "Infiniti G35 Coupe" or JDM or anywhere else it's sold as a Nissan, "Skyline GT350 Coupe".
It's VQ35
never sees over 20 mpg with hard driving, with 6MT, more like 17 mpg (7.2 liters/km). Highway is much better due to the tall 5th and 6th gears, 25 mpg +, I've seen low 30's.
Most of the time, esp since having installed a COBB AP and Stage2+ map, I see about 17-19 mpg. I guess you have to burn some fuel if you want to roll with 300chp. With the COBB AP my fuel cutoff is now at 7200 rpm, not 6850, so I tend to spend more time above 6000 rpm than before, that's pretty much wide open throttle level of fuel consumption in a VQ35.
