So what else could affect my mpg?
Thanks

Hi Sasha
You forgot to mention tyre pressures, tyre widths, and having a clean air filter would change things too. Not to mention a lot of cold starts with no warm up, stop and start driving etc.
My 2011 987 has an upshift indicator to increase mileage by telling you when to use a higher gear, in case you can't figure it out for yourself! LOL
BTW I am getting 23-24mpg right now and the car has under 500 miles on it fwiw.
Just drive it and enjoy it! It will never be a Prius.. thank God!
