When I drive up to Atlanta or south Florida for work I keep it in "Normal" and get around 26-27 mpg driving 80ish. I'm incredibly impressed with the mpg in this car. I've honestly never put the car in Economy mode to see the difference in a 6+ hour drive. Around town the car typically stays in Sport mode and I don't monitor the fuel consumption. The car definitely has opened up more since the car has turned over 12k miles. I've noticed a difference and it's really making me enjoy this car more than I did a few months back. I think a few more members on here have said the same thing.

But I drive in Sport+ and paddle shift all day long around town. I think I get 11mpg.
The car has changed over the 15K miles OR I have gotten used to it. The day I drove it off the lot it had the Summer tires and it was raining and 27degrees. I drove away in ECO and SNOW mode.
Now, a year later, I beat it like it owes me money.
Lead Lap
I drive mostly in Sport+ mode and seem to average around 19 mpg.
When I first bought it, I drove it from Virginia back to RI and averaged almost 28 mpg in normal mode and the car had less than 150 miles on it, which was pretty amazing.

Some of these highway MPG numbers are really impressive for a 467hp car..What are some of you guys getting in normal to occasional "spirited" city driving?

Pole Position
Agreed - mileage is pretty impressive - it almost beats my G37 in overall city/highway mpg. I think that this is at least partially explained by 8 spd auto and the "yearning" of the RC F to shift up unless you really have your foot in it.
