it gets better fuel economy than the M coupe, but still out performs the 2.5i and 3.0i models. see full BMW Z4 review

Fuel economy is great. Getting 30 to 33 mpg on trips on 2 lane rural highways at 65 to 70 mph. see full BMW Z4 review
2006 2dr Convertible 215-horsepower 3.0L I6

Around town I get about 23 mpg but on the open highway, get 30 to 32 mpg which is huge since the Z only uses premium grade gas. see full BMW Z4 review

Average 26-27mpg combined city/highway in daily commuter driving (no expressway)...even with some spirited driving. see full BMW Z4 review

Sure wish I could get 30 MPG in this thing instead of 20 (though I have gotten 26 on long trips as long as I don't let my wife drive) see full Honda Element review

This is my only major gripe with the vehicle... I seem to get a consistent 22mpg, whether it is city driving, long flat highways, or mountains. If I go out of my way to drive conservatively, or use a medium-to-heavy foot with the aid conditioner, the difference is completely negligible... it's pretty much always 22mpg. see full Honda Element review

It stinks! The EX is a bit heavy which drags the MPG to 21/25. see full Honda Element review
