Average MPG for DD RCF?
Hey guys so I got my RCF about 2 weeks ago and am currently averaging about 13-14 MPG and roughly 200 miles/tank. Now obviously this is a performance car and I'm not expecting to average 20 MPG or anything but just curious to see what other members in here are averaging with their RCF as a daily driven vehicle.
I drive about 30 miles round trip every day, 60% highway 40% city driving. I've been mostly driving in normal about 70% of the time but I have been riding it hard in S+ every so often lol. I've only got about 500 miles on the ODO but have also already taken it to the track to do some 1/8th mile runs so that obviously didn't help .
Just for reference I was averaging about 21 MPG in my '13 GS350 F-Sport so I don't have a particularly light foot and am not expecting to get anywhere near this number in the RCF.
So for you guys who have had the car for some time I'm curious to see what kind of numbers you're getting.

So one factor here is how is MPG calculated. If I write down or save in my phone the mileage and gallons at fillup, I get a pretty good calculation. if counting on the car to tell me, I'm pretty sure that will be less accurate. I tracked it the manual method while driving cross country recently, and found I got as high as I think it was 27, interstate freeway and eco mode. My normal around town driving is low because I almost exclusively drive in S+ and I like the chirp of the tires, but that is mixed 50/50 city/highway and I slide into 8th gear on the highway, so I'm still averaging about 16 - 17 overall, which seems really good, better than I expected. Of course I didn't buy this car to save gas...

I'm getting 17.8 in my driving around town and short trips. Normal mode and non aggressive driving style...only occasional pedal to the metal. I took one long trip with my car..about 250 miles round trip and got 28.2...driven in normal mode that day. I have about 3500 miles on my car

I mostly drive in normal mode and step on it when feasible and I'm getting 21.5 in combined daily driving.
Much better than I thought I would be getting. I've had the car for 4 months now.
