driven 659,20 km's with 63,36 Liter makes 9,6 L/100km = 24,5 MPG
or 410 miles for 115 USD
even 'C can do that in his M5 
unless he is really coming to the european meet, then it's 200USD for 1 tank of fuel.

You have to check it manually. The computer calc on mine reads the same, when I am actually getting around 21-22. On a trip, driving 80mph, I get about 25.5 - 26.5 (computer reads 30-31).
I am very impressed with the mileage, but the computer is way off.

Never have I been anywhere near low 20's on a HWY trip. I get a solid 400 miles everytime on an extended trip usually fill up and its about 16 gallons give or take about 3/10ths of a gallon or so when I fill it up. That comes out to a solid 25MPG. Many times I'm more in that 430ish area.

REPOST!
I have always believed that the #2 thing guys lie about is their gas (oline) mileage. The #1 thing is the size of certain body parts.

Not all diesels, filled mine up today:
driven 659,20 km's with 63,36 Liter makes 9,6 L/100km = 24,5 MPG
or 410 miles for 115 USD even 'C can do that in his M5 unless he is really coming to the european meet, then it's 200USD for 1 tank of fuel.

I've got the computer to read 37 mpg before, granted the computer is probably a little off and I may have been driving with a bit of a tail wind but thats still pretty good.
My computer is bang-on for calculation, btw. Just verified.

I don't know how you put it there in english....
but i'll try to explain the best as i can...
As i drive long distances.... Reykjavik - Keflav?k that's 43km [26 miles]... almost straight road, with almost no elevations....
there i'm going as low as 3,9 l/100km [60mpg] and as high as 4,6 l/100km [51mpg]...
average is 4,2 l/100km [56mpg] calculated after topping up fuel in Reykjav?k, driving the 43km [26 miles] and then topping up again in Keflav?k...
Inside town, it has been as low as 7,8 [30] [ and highest is around 8,4 [28]....but... that's with my GF at the wheel... normal driving...
it's always around 9,4-10,1 [23-25] when i drive...
Dyno said 323hp... and the response is at a very good level.... only downfall is the smoke cloud that appears when you get on it...
but i find it a good revenge to put black smoke on some of those road raging assholes in traffic
