Worst mpg in your e30

[Stu]

Less than 150 miles out of a full tank. All those miles during a track day at Thunderhill. The late model E30s tank is just under 15 gallons IIRC so this would equate to less than 10mpg under HDPE conditions.

Worst was 12mpg spending the day at a track, would have been lower but 60 miles were highway getting there.

8ish at the track.

I get zero everyday. Everytime I stop pull up to a stop sign or traffic light.

haha.. I never get under 20 even when the car is having problems, running on 3 cylinders, running in open loop, anything.

18mpg, not sure why, wasn't driving the car especially hard.. i think it was crappy winter gas. anyway, I usually average 21, no matter how hard I drive, but I do a lot of freeway miles.

I got 16 city on my s14.... youd think a 4 cyl would do better :)

[Brew]

9 mpg while cruising at 100 mph for a little over 2.5 hours between Oneonta, NY and Braintree, MA. (~260 miles)

No lectures please.

Seems like my worst mpg is when I'm going 90 for 7 hours up the I-5. I think I got like 20 mpg. I feel like running the car at 4k for that long isn't good for it. But I'm impatient.

People track MPG in an E30? HAH.

I DRINK Fuel like a carbed V8 with a broken fuel line.

I do pay attention to MPG on my V6 4Runner though...I average around 14 - 15MPG in that thing, highway/city.

Down to 13-14mpg around town flogging the shit out of it with bigger injectors and m30 afm (88 325is). With the diesel i try to get below 10km/100 (23mpg) and i have a very very hard time acheiving anything worse. the car is rated at getting 8l/100 km (29 mpg) diesel ftw.

Im lucky if I get below 14-16l per 100km ever= about 14 miles per gallon. thge autobahn will do that to you though. just filled up yesterday. in the euro sence it got 245km and took 35 liters. i drive hard about 80 percent of the time i drive the Edirty though.

[2002maniac]

I got 13mpg at the track once. On the way to vegas I got 23mpg averaging 115mph :)

[BMWguy]

i think about 16mpg on a trip from chicago to west lafayette, IN and back... balls hot summer, AC blowing hard, 95mph cruising with awesome box aerodynamics :p

Whats AC?

[James Crivellone]

Well not the worst, but going down to the portland meet yesterday, doing around 70 - 80mph I got 22mpg.

Thats just highway, with light passing mind you.

Mine 13 to 15 mpg.. Its sucks! Need major tune up.
