25%-30% in-town (not exactly stop-n-go), 70%-75% between towns at 45-55 MPH. Automatic w 3.15 rear axle. Don't get on it very often.

Mine gets about 15% worse mileage than either of my C5's did in same driving conditions. The best I have seen in 100% highway driving (cruise set at 70mph) is 27.5 (the C5's would get 32 or so in the same driving). Around town I am getting about 20 (that includes a fair amount of freeway driving as well). These things can dip into to very low teens pretty easy if you drive "agressively".

PR Coupe A4, F55 = 21.3mph @ 41mph avg.
I think to get a truer indicator we should be listing our average speeds also. Obviously I do a lot of freeway/highway driving.

I just made a 600 mi trip in my Z51 6 spd and got 24.7 MPG. My buddy was with me in his '04 Z06 6 spd and he got 24.7 also. In my 99 auto that would have been about 28 - 29 MPG. Around town, I have been getting about 19 - 20 with a great deal of freeway driving.

I really don't care anymore
I used to watch and gauge the gas mileage, but I bought this car for the performance and the looks. And, it is my weekend car. So, I really don't care anymore. If I burn an entire tank in one weekend, so be it. I had fun!
