What miles per gallon do people get in their Porsches? (I am particularly interested in 964s on the motorway!)

Is there a website giving the factory figures of the cars?

My old 944 S2 did 30 mpg on the motorway!

Thanks

Tom

23 993 4s

it was in the low teens when it had the supercharger on and I pressed hard. But still 22 when I didn't

968 around 26
944t high teens - same car on track about 7
944t with injector problem abut 10
964 about 20

nah, youre in denial, we all know youve been sniffing the stuff - hence the strange sticky up hair, glazed expression and almost psychotic urge to change cars all the time

in answer to the thread, dunno. £50-55 per tank, 250 miles round town, 350-400 on motorway. so long as I retain the moral highground as running the eco-friendly car in the family (wife's 4.0 petrol jeep does 15 mpg round town) then I care not

no, you're right. that extra 3.5 miles round town you're getting easily awards you an economical psychological edge.
