mine changes dramatically depending on fuel (I only use 98), Shell makes my car go like crap, I drag race on BP at calder and get kick ass times but bad fuel economy around the streets.

I get the best out of Caltex 98, 7.2-8.2 on the freeway, and 10.5-12.0 city driving, I am on average according to the little computer currently sitting at 10.2.

well over 500Km out of every tank, except for when I use Shell, on Shell I can get max 350-400Km out of the tank.

Car is an 09 XR6T Manual with 20" wheels... it all makes a difference peeps, bigger wheels often mean heavier wheels!

I know mines not the same car,but I was on the highway today and thought I'd watch the fuel reading.... I was getting between 6.7-7.5/100 km @ 110km/h.

Pretty happy with that.

Average for me in an xr6Turbo 03 ba 4 speed is 15.7lt average with mainly city driving and it can be spirited most of the time but put her on the freeway and it drops down to 8-9lt's to the 100km.

It all depends on how you drive these beast's!

If the wife drives the car the average fuel for city driving drops to 12lt's to the 100km, so not to bad.
