I just filled up and checked the odometer on my 08 Solara 4 cyl. 478.5 miles and used 16.2 gal of fuel=29.54 mpg. The computer reported 31.2 mpg. This is at mostly hwy speeds 60-80 mph and 70% hwy driving with the defroster on for my 35 mile morning commute. Car now has 5,862 miles. I hope to get higher MPG as it breaks in further.

I drove to the Jersey Shore last week from West by god Virginia in the 08 Solara. Speeds were pretty much 70-80 mph on the highway until I hit NJ, then stop and go and boardwalk traffic for the remainder of the tank. I filled up with 513 miles on the odo and took 16.6 gal. of fuel for a 30.9 mpg on that tank. Computer read 31.8 mpg and is the closest reading to actual mpg that I've had since owning the car. Sunroof open most of the time on highway and A/C on during stop and go traffic. 7800 miles on car so far. I was hoping the 4cyl would get more mpg and hope it does as it breaks in further.

You can expect about 20-22 MPG in a V6 Camry in city driving.

Depends on how you define "city." I'd recommend renting a Camry V6 first to see how you do before shelling out money for a new car.
My wife is getting only about 20 mpg in a 4-cylinder 2005 Camry in our small town. But her average one-way drive is only about 5-7 miles, and there are several traffic lights along the way.

My commute is exactly the same, sometimes waiting times at the lights are long also. Acutally I'd probably only be buying this car if I can get a steal on 2009 with less 10k miles. There's one where I live with 3000 miles totally loaded with nav.

So I'd conclude you'd see little improvement (if any) in gas mileage by switching from the G35 to the Camry V6. You'd have to make the trade based on other grounds (like getting top dollar for your G35 and getting the slightly used '09 Camry for a steal).

Came back from another jaunt to NJ beaches tonight with improved MPG. I changed the oil last week with 5W/20 Quaker State full synthetic and a Bosch filter. The oil was on sale at Wally World for $18 and with a $3 off coupon from Auto Zone the filter was $3. So for $21 I did a full synthetic change in about 10 minutes in my driveway. Anyway, I topped my tires to 35 PSI and took off. 518 total miles and filled 15.7 gal (topping off too) for an MPG of 32.99. Trip computer read 34.1. This is the best mpg thus far and I'm pleased. Solara now has just under 10k miles.
