Pauly Posted 15December, 2016 Report Share Posted 15December, 2016 C'mon you didn't buy a P car to measure the MPGs did you?Is this MPG or L/100ks ? I get about 18L per 100ks in my 944 but that's irrelevant hahah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted 15December, 2016 Report Share Posted 15December, 2016 I have had my 997 for over 2 years and would not have a clue what MPG it gets ,,,I will have a look out of curiosity next time ,,,,but I wouldn,t expect it to be polar bear friendly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whytar Posted 15December, 2016 Report Share Posted 15December, 2016 On the combined cycle I'd say 'm averaging about 13L/100 but I live in Sydney so not a lot of WOT opportunities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redracn Posted 15December, 2016 Report Share Posted 15December, 2016 Anywhere from 10L/100 to 50L/100 (130km/tank) depends on the circumstances. Tyres and brakes cost me a lot more than fuel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB Posted 15December, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 15December, 2016 Wow, was just a question purely based on interest not the monetary equation, thought that was what these forums were about.just interested me in terms of avg's as these engines have a massive variance dependent on how you drive. Not a lot of mass produced engines have that capability these days.ill leave it at that then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleazius Posted 15December, 2016 Report Share Posted 15December, 2016 I'm 13l / 100km on the combined. When I get up it though its probably up near 30. When I first bought it it was around 10.07 S with PSE and Chrono. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OZ930 Posted 16December, 2016 Report Share Posted 16December, 2016 Wow, was just a question purely based on interest not the monetary equation, thought that was what these forums were about.just interested me in terms of avg's as these engines have a massive variance dependent on how you drive. Not a lot of mass produced engines have that capability these days.ill leave it at that then.I thought it was a valid question. It is nice to know how far you can go on a tank at various speeds,i.e.,100,110,120 etc, when planning a trip/fuel stops. If the fuel gauge stops for some unknown reason then you can work out a safe fuel range. I know that in cruise, at about 110kph, I can do 700+km on a single tank. Handy info, when I have gone out for some fun and the tank gets down to 1/4, I can safely cruise another 160km. Bound to be a servo in that distance.There is always a bit of "pucker" factor comes in when the tank level gets low....so I carry 10 ltrs reserve on long trips.Car racing, also, is not just outright speed.

911 Snake Posted 18December, 2016 Report Share Posted 18December, 2016 250kms - 350kms per tank with X51 and PSE off200kms-250kms with disconnected PSE, just running AWE 200 cell cats. (might have something to do with my right foot though..) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB Posted 19December, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 19December, 2016 So the qld to vic run I did saw me sitting avg 120kmph with a few spirited sprints 200+. This saw approx 600k out of a tank. Pure city driving with exhaust on and a couple of blasts see's 300-350 tops. Combined 400 off k's per tank. Track day in feb tipping 200ks per tank?

bumble Posted 20December, 2016 Report Share Posted 20December, 2016 I have no intention of leaving any liquid energy for the millennials to leave to the buttercups who will have no idea what to do with it. I agree - if it's going to run out sometime, what difference does it make under whose watch it runs out?Interestingly, in the latest Classic Porsche mag, a bunch of guys went on a European road trip of about 3000km. A '70 911S 2.2, a 3.2 Carrera, a 996 C4 and a new Boxster. Some freeway, some city driving and some track driving. At the end they compared notes and found they'd consumed almost exactly the same amount of fuel. Makes ya think dunnit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
