On a good day in the Aristo V300 I'm getting 14.74 mpg, and that's driving it gently!
If I have a spirited drive it drops to 9.5mpg!!!!
Maybe I should have just bought a GS430, but then again, this is more fun

GS300, roughly 23-25mpg highway. Lately there was some emissions issues so it was dropping down to around 21mpg, but now that everything is solved it should be up around 25+ or so.

I notice that my mpg went down when I added 17 inch wheels with 245/45/17 tires several years ago. Must be the additional contact on the road. On the plus side, it looks way better.

right now with pure city driving (average 20-40mph) and it being ~15-25 degrees out side, been getting 16mpg. Before in the summer ~17.5mpg with same pure city driving. With city driving, most trips are less than 4mi in length. On my recent 1300mi thanksgiving roadtrip, I averaged 25.1mpg.
Oh yeah, got a 01 430 with the factory chrome 17s and a L-tuned exhaust.

I have 87K miles on my GS400. If I fill up about 17 gallons of gas (93) I will always get just 230 miles out of it. That's about 13.5 mpg almost all city driving (crazy traffic in NY - Long Island). I drive kind of aggressive and have my stock wheels on for the winter. Besides the air filter what can be some of the other causes of low gas mileage. (BTW I cleaned my throtle body already)

'99 GS4
Nashville to Cincinnati, cruise set at 80, 87 octane chevron: 25.0mpg (not verified by hand calculation). Work Commuting, 70% highway 75-80mph 21.5mpg.
I just got this car 2 weeks ago and have not verified the mpg with hand calculations. I hope that the computer is accurate

I am currently at 16-17 MPG. My 2005 Tundra V8 gets similar gas mileage to the GS4
