Used to average around 15-16mpg mixed highway / street.

Then I got my RPI exhaust system and I'm probably down to 10mpg from revving high

I average 14-16 mpg, mix of hwy and city, mixed with easy and spirited, etc. If I reaaally behave, i can break 20+ mpg on the hwy no problem.

Why you would ever drive not in M mode (P500 Sport) is beyond me, but I get around 7 miles to the gallon and love it.
