Is it running OK? Could be just some bad gas or something. Do any mods in the last week?

Notice he said LITERS PER 100KMs?

He is actually getting better mileage. Probably due to driving style changers, or he was just trying to fool everyone from the start.

The computer can vary alot. One day I will get 14L/100km, the next its 18L/100km. And it can screw up alot, like once It was telling me I was getting ~37L/100km.

Default 13l/100k

I get about 13L/100 Km (or 18 mpg) with my setup. I think thats pritty good driving 100 km/h or 62 mph.

If I step it up to 120 km/h or 74 mph, then i get around 15-16 l/100K.. which works out to be around 15 mpg.

I just drove back into Ottawa with the soft top down, doors on and windows up. I had the cruise control set for just over 100km/h and I was getting about 9.5.

Weather has been great down here in Florida...
But around 6200 miles on the od, and I went from 18.5 mpg to 19.8 mpg. So for the last three tanks of gas I have averaged a little over 300 miles per tank, where I was getting about 275 miles per tank.

I think your mileage has a lot to due with the ambient air temperature. The warmer the weather the better the mileage I get. That's how some people on here can get so much better mileage in the winter than they rest. Those in the south or California where its warmer. I get about 2-3 MPG better when its warmer.
