35 mpg - for a short while
Was driving from Houston to Ellington Airfield (South of Houston) and back...hit 35 MPG - for a short period of time...I was happy my 250 is capable of such feat.

I got around 27 mpg from nyc to west DC and back considering all the hills from Delaware to DC, local driving around 20-21 it 's quiet good for an 08 IS350. only mods F Sport intake and exhaust.

In Florida (really flat), I get 32 MPG driving highway. I average 28 MPG every week driving 60% HWY and 40% city. I wondered if I have an exceptional engine or a faulty computer

Nice! I've got mine to hit 40+ for a short time, but it always drops back down really quick once I go up a hill or get back on the streets. I'm impressed with the gas mileage of the 250 too. I will break 500 miles on a tank ONE day....lol I got it up to 485 miles once on a road trip and had 17 miles to go...but had to fill gas because there was gonna be a while till the next gas stop =/

You always get the highest computer numbers after filling up and getting on the freeway. Remove those two factors or shut the car off to start over again and it all goes to hell.
