I get it. These things do suck the gas down for sure. But it’s nothing like a big 8 cylinder pick up truck or a Humvee. Considering how powerful these cars are they get pretty decent gas mileage. I know a lot of people are commenting on this thread that who buys a car like this and cares about gas mileage but I can tell you this I’d rather get 19 miles to the gallon beating on this thing then 9 miles to the gallon. I do care a little bit. Sometimes I take this car on business trips. Lots of people here daily drive this thing. It’s bad enough we have to put 93 octane in so getting 25 miles per gallon driving like grandma seems pretty awesome to me.

It would be interesting to see how much of that $11.30 per gallon is the actual gas price, taxes, profit, etc.

I track gas mileage not only for a fuel cost perspective, but also for an engine health perspective (and because I’m a numbers/stats nerd).
But just as an example, my Nissan Titan is direct injected and my highway fuel economy is a good indicator of when I need to walnut blast the valves. I’ve done it twice so far and it’s very apparent when the need is there. So I’m a proponent of this thread, despite the haters. Lol |

No idea on gas mileage. I take it easy while the car is getting up to operating temp and then enjoy the manual. 🙂
As for the different modes there are definitely throttle mapping differences between them and likely wastegate DC settings between modes as well. (This is why folks with JB4s are seeing more throttle closures in sport and sports plus versus comfort. The car overshoots boost targets quicker and results in more throttle closures)
