2008 2dr Hatch 295-horsepower 3.4L H6
6-speed manual RWD
It is better than I expected. I average roughly 23 miles with city and highway commuting on days I choose to take it to the office. On trips I can get 26 mpg, not stellar but not awful. see full Porsche Cayman review

Fuel economy is reasonable relative to the car's performance - 20 mpg, plus or minus a couple depending on the balance of city versus highway driving. see full Porsche Cayman review
Porsche Cayman Real Gas Mileage: Cons

Low teens in town, and 24mpg tops on the highway make this a less than ideal economy car. see full Pontiac G8 review

The most MPGs I ever had was 25 and that was all highway driving at about 70. see full Pontiac G8 review

Not bad mileage figures given the size of the car and the beast of an engine, but this is not a car for the hybrid set. see full Pontiac G8 review
