They're off on pretty much every car, but what counts is the number of miles you get to a tank, and I got 410 miles before I finally had to fill up. Granted, that was a 99% highway driving, but averaged 85+ MPH.

WOW! I plan on having this car a long time, it is amazing!! I was told by a Lexus person "they don't make them like that anymore"! Such a pleasure to own and drive!

you must have an issue - my 460 has 128K on it and has consistently gotten 28-30 on the highway and at worst 21 mpg around town. average is 25-26. your numbers should be concerning.

MPG's are highly speed variable. Slow down 5 or 10mph and see a world of difference. Oh and use Cruise Control.
I took a job 1hr away from my house and I gotta say (old man coming thru) it's soooooooooo much more relaxing to be in the slow lane going 5 over the limit vs being in the fast lane constantly speeding up and slowing down. It just seems like so much extra work for the car, brakes, tranny shifting, etc.. compared to just put-putting along at 70mph or ghast....60mph.
Time wise it's the same as stopping for a quick pee break. Conversely the faster you go, the sooner you gotta stop for gas. A double edged sword it is.
Sweet car by the way!
