greido Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Hi, Thought I'd say hello. I bought a Dec'06 350Z GT on Sunday. It's black with black leather with Rays Alloys. I've driven it around 400 miles so far and really enjoyed it. I've been pleasantly surprised by the average of 27mpg, admitedly this has been on the motorway the majority of the time but I have been booting it at every opportunity, so it's a nice surprise (Best achieved was 32mpg, Edinburgh to Glasgow in Rush hour yesterday) . How does that compare with the rest of you guys? - The reason I've made a point of this is simply because I knew I'd enjoy driving it but I had no idea that fuel economy would be so good, I'd expected 22-24mpg. Enough of the boring stuff, I've found the car to be excellent in every way; very well put together, quick, comfortable and with the Bose cranked up is like being in a nightclub. Sweet. The more I look at the car the more I like the look of it; all in all I'm delighted with my new toy. Thanks to everyone who replied about the servicing in Glasgow/Edinburgh.

Jon350z Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Black on black with Rays, nice choice. I searched for weeks finding one for me Ive managed to get around those numbers on motorway drives, 6th is a really fuel saver. Bit different when you nail it about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 I too am still surprised, even booting it up it still returns fairly healthy numbers. After two years you'd think I'd know what I get MPG wise! Anyway welcome and good choice on colour! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digsy Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Hi and welcome! A few trips around town or some of those tasty Scottish B-roads should send those figures tumbling! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gtphwoar Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Welcome! I'm forever sitting on 19-20mpg through town to work, It does have a Nismo cat back so I don't that helps the situation, I have seen it on 29/30 mpg but not for long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
