Hi Steven. I bought my `08 G37 last Christmas. It currently has approximately 8700 miles on it. Most of my driving is around town and I get 20+ mpg. We just returned from a 600 mile trip (averaging 80mph), and recorded 23+ mpg.
 
Granted, I don't drive aggressively, but I don't just cruise either. Unless you are driving it at or near its full potential, I don't know why your mileage is so poor.
 
Maybe the retailer's service department can give it a once over and find something for you.
 
Good luck.

Hi,thanks for the reply. This 20-mpg that your getting, do you know this information because of the "Status Botton" on the center dash, or is this calculated? I know that the window sticker said 17-22. Thanks.

Sorry for the lag in reply. On the road again.
 
Anyway, these numbers are the pencil and paper real deal. Surprisingly close to the trip computer calculations.

My g37 ipod adapter is not charging my new 3g iphone, it used to charge last years' iphone. Anybody with similar problem and how do i solve it?, external car charger will not do,since it beats the purpose of the intregrated ipod system.

Thanks for the reply, I'm going to try a different brand of gas. I was told that a better quality of fuel might help to increase my mileage. I didn't know this, I've been using WAWA Gas. I'm hoping that after I switch to Sunoco or Shell, I'll do better. What brand of gas do you use in your G? Thanks Again.

Here in metro Atlanta/North Georgia, I use Racetrac premium (93 octane). While not a "major" brand, it is offered all over our area, and it gets the job done. My retailer told me as long as I use a premium w/detergents, everything will be fine.
 
When traveling, I usually look for Exxon/Mobil.
 
Don't know much about the tires. I am not at that point yet. However, I probably will look toward Michelins when that time comes.

MORE TORQUE... by steven48
Jul 21, 2008 (4:42 pm)

I wish my G37S had a little less horsepower and more torque. I would probably get better gas mileage. More torque would be nicer "off the line". I have to get to 4000rpm before a nice kick, I can appreciate it's a luxury brand, but more torque!!! The horsepower 315 would be fine, that's still very fast, and increase the torque to 300 foot lbs. up from 270. Just a thought, thanks.

I've used Pirelli PZero Nero A/S's as well as summer's on my BMW (530SP). Also Dunlop SP Sport2000 A/S's. I have found the Pirelli's to provide a good balance of grip in all conditions with decent wear/noise characteristics - having switched to the A/S's to squeeze some additional mileage out of a set of tires. Believe there is a price/performance ratio to be considered, so look into doing some research on Tire Rack and using that info to negotiate with your local performance wheel/tire retailer. My guys in Atlanta are superb.
 
BTW, totally agree that Michelin builds a superb tire, but will cost you more. Only you can determine if they provide the value & performance you need. Again, Tire Rack can provide excellent insight.
