After 2 months, I'm getting 17.6 MPG...
Average MPG in my 07 XKR...at least that is what the computer says. Mainly city driving - I have been on the nearby interstates a few times.
What is everybody else getting? Is there any way to get this up? I keep the tires inflated and I run 5W30 synthetic oil.

Excellent highway mileage.
In just a little over 2000 miles since I have the car my average MPG is sitting on 27.2. Most of my driving is freeway. On my regular trip the first 18 miles is tightly winding and hilly, then about 100 miles freeway, followed by 5 days of city driving of about 1.5 miles each way between the hotel and work. Then back home.
On the freeway I usually set the cruise to 71-72, given the heavy police presence.

I'm getting 18.x in my 09 XKR. Average speed is around 30 MPH according to the computer...Basically some stop and go freeway traffic + surface streets + some faster freeway on the way home. I found that I was getting 25.x when my average speed was around 55 on a 60 mile trip I did on the way home from the dealer. Driving around suburbia seems to get me 17.x.
My 09 Mini Cooper auto gave me 29 vs. 18.x on the same drive. So I'm getting 2/3 of the MPG with 3.5x the HP. is it worh it??? Hell yeah!!!
