F430 average fuel consumption

[birdseye]

Bit surprised mine is running at 16mpg - I drive as someone put it like Mother Teresa. What mpg do you average?

About the same maybe 17

Surprised high or surprised low?

That sound about right. My 360 averages between 17 and 24 depending on the journey.
I would suspect when you are on it, you'll be sub 10....

Given the way that I was driving, surprised low. I cant have been using more than 200 bhp to move a 1.5 tonne car at the speeds I was doing, and fuel consumed should relate to power used. So why would I use twice as much fuel as in the family car of similar weight and at similar speed? The engine must be horrendously inefficient.

With the miles I do , it doesnt really matter, but it is a bit odd.

Averaged somewhere between 8 and 10 on a 3,000 mile Eurotrip last year. I never usually look but out of interest added up the fuel spend.

If you have to ask what the fuel consumption of a Ferrari is then you probably shouldn't buy one but I guess that your concern may be that there's something wrong and causing excessive consumption, probably best to get it hooked up to the SD2
