Nice. My mpg during one of our hard driving meets is more like 11. 
Looks like you have one of those every day.

2006 525i
26.4 currently
25.5 on average
31+ on Highway trips
It must be paying me back for its first year of life in Germany... averaged over 100mph to and from work and I know my MPG was in the toilet.
147mph top speed on trips. (I backed off at that with just a little six banger under da hood)
So I'm guessing these things have no speed limiters???

My Ride: 2008 535xi
Platinum bronze metallic, automatic, cold weather package, fold down rear seats, iPod adapter
2008 535xi, 22.4 mpg, 91 octane, mostly city driving. I get 28-29 mpg on the highway at "normal" speeds. Still got 26.6 mpg on a long trip at, um, somewhat higher than normal speeds for a California freeway.

Yeah, I've had the car exactly one month today and I'm still giddy over how fast this thing is! I came out of a Lexus GS300 and there's absolutely no comparison.
Welcome to a car that actually handles and feels connected to the road (although it lacks a Mark Levinson sound system option)

You got a hybrid or something?
I use the Techron fuel additive 2000 miles ago. I think it works pretty good. I get good MPG and my rough idle is GONE.
