On average, ~10mpg for my local driving habits...now for some perspective though, I dont drive much during biz days as I work in the city and take mass transit each day, so all of my driving is for pleasure i suppose, and in that i get on it as much as possible for the road available to me...so for me, its a non-issue, and in most cases I only fill up once a week, so in my case, my monthly fuel tab is approx $200...now yes, I do see others that note those crazy costs, but I just dont get it, they must use the beast as a salesmans car and drive it stop and go 10 hours a day to get to a $50/day tab.

For longer runs, straight highway driving, it gets much better, can get as much as 20mpg if you are driving for hours straight, and for mixed local and highway, can get 16 or so, it really depends on how you drive the beast. The only thing I'll say is that the more u drive it, the less you begin to care about the mpgs!!!!!

I just bought a CPO MB e63. Pick it up monday. After driving 2 CPO M3 cars (DCT and 6MT) as well as 2 M5 cars (SMG and 6MT), I found myself drawn more to the MB e63. Just my opinion.
