@slats66 Same here, exact reason I got one as well.

Who buys a V8 with some balls and cries about MPG? Slap yourself and get a Prius- I hear theyre good this time of year.
-
Honestly, who buys a G8 for the reason of fuel economy??? Its like being upset your Toyota Prius has terrible quarter mile times. What was the reason you bought it for??
I bought the G8 because I wanted performance, size and 4 doors for under $30k. It's was a great deal.

@chiefafro9er 08 GT - pure 68 mph on a two lane highway I get 25+. Around town with too darned many stoplights, about 15. Overall about 18.
-
09 G8 GT...I get about 15.5 in mixed driving, but I drive hard...was getting 16.5 while taking it easy on the break in period.

There wasn't on my GT

Oh yeah?
My old car, a 1993 Ford Taurus with the 3.8L, would only get about 19 MPG, and that's if I'm careful with the throttle on the highway. And, the car was always maintained so that's not the problem.
My pop's old 1990 Chevrolet Suburban with the 5.7L V8 got better gas mileage on the highway than my old car by about 1 MPG, despite the fact that it's a huge, heavier truck with an engine having two more cylinders and larger displacement.
Go figure.

That sucks, but as far as I know, the tax is only on the GXP.
This may change, however, with the possible raising of fuel efficiency standards.
-
There IS a gas guzzler tax on them :( I know. Unless it's just the GXP... Mine was 1800

my g8 gt gets 16.5 , and im hell on it. and my old bmw 3L didnt get but 18.

I rented a G8 GT a few weeks ago while out of town on business. I was thoroughly impressed with this car in every aspect. And on a 60 mile easy highway drive running between 55-60, I recorded 28 with this car. On a faster 75 mph trip, I recorded 25. Nothing wrong with that.
