2009 Nissan GT-R Road Trip: How's it on Fuel?



Just topped off the GT-R's tank for the 7th time. As you may have noticed from previous posts, we haven't exactly been feathering the throttle. It hasn't killed our overall average though as it now stands at 17.54 mpg. We did leave out the tank we used this morning while lapping at Miller Motorsports Park as it seemed to disappear at an alarming rate...
Still not bad for a supercar.

I wonder what the "fuel efficient" Corvette Z06 would get using a similar driving style?

Hmm... I get 17mpg in my Evo if I baby it around town; I generally get 15mpg. I've never seen more than 20mpg with 90% hwy driving.
 
Oh, and 6mpg on track :)

My dad's Toyota Solara with a 3.0 V6 gets around 18 in the suburbs. Although highway mileage is much better, more like 25.
