[C5ORGTO]

Yes, and how many people actually get 29mpg. I know some do, but I get 14.5mpg

Do you have a manual or an auto. also that is 29 highway.

 

[LS2 - Light SpeedX2]

The best I averaged was about 26 to 27. Now with my mods and my foot operation. (I had a five pound weight surgically sewn into the bottom of my throttle foot) :lol: I am averaging about 12 to 14.

 

[The_Goat]

On a recent trip where I was not in a hurry and kept it at 55mph.. I actually got 31 mpg avg. The road was flat and straight with no stops for about 50 miles. That was on 92 octane. Regular driving... 21 - 18mpg

I have not gotten over 12.5 miles per gallon 06 m6

 

[Kamau]

New here...

question, aren't all of the 06s the same? What would make the sudden change in gas mileage?

 

[hardball75006]

These threads make me jealous. I have an A4 and do only city driving, I have yet to get out of the teens. The M6 gets ridiculously good gas mileage.

 

[ShoddyHog]

I have not gotten over 12.5 miles per gallon 06 m6

I was amazed this morning. Usually, I try to lower the mileage by standing on it and keeping the RPMs up. This morning I got off to work very early, was listening to Sirius, and for the first time in weeks just put her in 6th and moseyed to work. I was doing an average of 80-85 with no cruise, AC off, about 60 degrees and average humidity. When I hit my exit 40 miles later, it read 24.5 MPG. That's the best I've gotten so far.

And for those folks who have followed my efforts to decrease my mileage, don't worry...I kept her out of 6th on the way home and took care of that problem :rofl:

If you have an 06 M6 and can't get at least 20 MPG on the highway with the cruise set, I'd take it in to have it looked at.

What would make the sudden change in gas mileage?

my guess would be "a desire to sell more cars"

 

[ChristianCoach]

The first thing to remember in this discussion is that the EPA mileage numbers are for COMPARISON! It is a standard simulated drive (on a dyno) developed some 20 years ago simulating a drive in Souther California. It clearly states on any window sticker, although it may be in very small print, that you may not get this type of mileage.

[CPO's GTO]

Yep, I saw the "new mileage" numbers also, during my virtual window shopping
for deals on GTO's around here. Don't know what's behind the change.
Same cars same engines!

 

[BBlackGoat05]

I got 29.5 mpg today on my '05 M6 keeping it under 70 on my way to cleveland (about 45 miles)... of course I was babying it, but not on the way home!!!

 

[socal gto]

On my a4 I got 28.5 mpg for a good 30 miles on my way to palm springs, which is a long flat straight away.

 

[shelbytwpgoat]

I have a 90 mile one way trip to the office each day, mostly highway and my 06/M6 routinely averages 28mpg. That is typical cruising at 75-85mph. At the track, after 11 runs, my average is 4.2mpg. Which do you think is more fun??? arty:

I am going to go out on a limb here and guess that the 4.2mpg would be a lot more fun.
