Well it is safe to say we all have the same problem. We love driving the IS500!
To date, I am averaging a 1000 miles per month. It is slowing down a little now as during those first six months I had the 250 mile drive from the purchasing dealership and another 200 mile trip a few months ago. I was hoping to have half this mileage by this time, but it is that much fun to drive.

Same... about 1,000 miles a month if I exclude the time it was at the body shop (which was exactly one month). I'm up to 4,500 and change now.
3 months of ownership and sitting at 2,400 miles. Crossed the city today from one end to the other cruising at 100 kph for about an hour and was averaging 32 mpg. Not bad at all.
Then, I had enough of the cruise, and went hard at it for 15 min or so and mpg plunged like a rock in a pond. why.
Currently sitting at 1500 miles since taking delivery on 5/9/2023. Minus 10 days for PPF/Ceramic coating. This is my daily but I mostly WFH and only commute to the office (10 mile round trip) once or twice a week. Everything is pretty close together in Chicago.
Very important milestone of 5,000 miles reached. Got my oil changed at about 4,900 after the initial oil change at 2,900. Feeling great about the ownership experience so far.

I gotta remember to take a mileage photo tomorrow in eco mode to troll Tony 🤣
9K km - that's not much at all after a year and half. I'm assuming the beast is hibernating during the harsh Quebecois winters?
It's my daily driver, even during winter, but since I'm teleworking since covid it doesn't go up quickly! (And I'm often borrowing the GF Mazda during snow storms!)
