I have a 16 350 F sport and drive a balance of 60% city and 40% highway. Never really sit in heavy traffic. I consistently average about 19 mpg overall. Absolutely sucks! And i don't drive the car hard. My last vehicle was a Grand Cherokee Limited with tow package and I averaged just under 18. This is one area Toyota needs to address. Should average 21-22. Looked at the Infiniti Q50 Red Sport with 400 hp and would've averaged 22.

2014 IS250, on average I get 20mpg in the city. Last summer I did a 2900 mile road trip over 8 days, and averaged 29-30mpg during my trip. Those numbers were about the same with my 2011 IS250 too.

Fun fact, I recently have been moved to a different office with the company I work for, and my commute no longer involves a highway. Even so, my MPG has improved because - there are fewer traffic lights! There are all sorts of variables to consider - technically it's a city-driving commute, but I have since been averaging 19.5 or so MPG compared to the low 18 range before. A slight increase, but an increase nonetheless. 
Just wanted to underscore that "your mileage may vary" is true and very unpredictable.

2014 IS350 AWD F Sport AWD with 47k Miles on it. I've had the car since july with 39k on it.
I am currently getting about 16 miles per gallon. 70/30 city/highway. I usually leave the car in eco mode. When I am on the highway, I am always passing cars and merge when I want to, meaning I drive the car more spiritedly than average. When I merge on the highway ramps, I open the car up to comfortable get in the flow of traffic.
My best was 23 miles per gallon on a road trip from Toronto to DC. I was going about 75 MPH.
It's winter and freezing here, I used to get about 14 mpg earlier on in the fall/winter overall, but I recently changed my oil, engine filter and dumped a bottle of fuel system cleaner and I think it helped. I am doing the spark plugs shortly in hopes of getting better mileage.
My previous car was a '10 Honda Civic LX Sedan Automatic which sipped gas. I am easily spending 50% more at the pump, but it is so worth it.
