BA F6, 410rwhp, manual. Average is around 330km per tank. If I've got Ms Daisy in the car on the highway then 450km from a tank is a good effort. If yours is very new then expect milage will improve as the motor beds in. The real problem is its new and your into it because you love the 'feeling' so much, so just enjoy for now.

Yeah I get around the same, just a bit over 400 when I give it to it and around 500 if I take it easy (that's with a bit of both hwy and city driving), currently got 2600km on it.

Mine's a manual and I just pulled into the driveway then with 2490kms on it.

It was on 16.6 for ages. I reset it and drove 'normally' up the monash to Stud Rd and it was saying around 13l/100km which should get you just over 500ks per tank, however in my first 2 weeks I never got to 400kms.

I'm sure it'll get better when I get over the extra 90kw this thing has over my old NA XR6...

During "normal" driving I get around 400 km's per tank. Around 14.5 on the computer.

19.1l/100km is normal for city driving

If I mix some freeways it drops to 14's

Its a small tank to keep it in front of the rear axle, its crash safety thing.

But I agree its a pain in the butt.
