Hey all,

I have had a couple of T's, am currently driving an SS-V, and am doing the sums to see if I can afford to novate an FG F6.

Can people please post some figures on their fuel consumption for standard FG F6's?

Note: I am not interested in economical drivers, freeway drivers etc. I drive hard, around local streets.

A few points:

- Using 98 Octane premium fuel.

- In my 2 XR6T's I tended to get 22-24L/100km

- in my SS-V I get 22-23L/100 (standard unleaded).

- I drive manuals so manual figures are of most use, but auto figures wont hurt either.

I am only interested in responses with >20L/100km as they will represent people who drive closer to how I drive. As I find it hard to believe the new F6 would go through less fuel than my SS-V or past XR6T's, anything less than 20L/100km is likely to mean you do more freeway k's or drive less hard than I do, so those sort of figures arent particularly useful to me in this instance.

That being said, it would also be interested to know typical consumption at 100-120kmh on freeway cruises. I dont do many, but was astounded that my hard driven T's got 7-7.2L/100km at 120kmh. My SS-V is lucky to get 12L/100k.

Any info appreciated!

come on guys I'm not here for a week or so and all apart from one, pay out on this guy,come on he owns 3 high performance cars all getting about 22-23l/100 and is worried that the f6 might use 25l/100,whats wrong with that.I love driving my car around in first gear all day to,love the dose noise when I back of.(How do I make my car make a louder dose noise again).Leave the guy alone he wants to tell us he drives faster and harder than anyone else on this site.I vote for mickq for australian of the year who seconds it.(went thought the emotions Smiley faces we need the pinky finger thing in there)Mate enjoy your car and remember your gearbox has 5/6 forward gears so use them.Cheers Nick

I love it when I put my FG trip computer on instant economy. Hit the go button and watch it go 99.9l/100!!!

I drove Sydney to Bris at 19l/100km. I wont say how long it took me to get from Sydney to Bris as I might end up with the same backlash as old mate. If you care about fuel economy, go buy a XT.
