My car has about 32,000 miles on it. I got it with just under 14,000. It is a 2013 Premium Convertible, MT-82, stock 2,73 rear end (soon to be changed to either 3.31 or 3.55).
Mileage has not been great but is consistent. I get 19-20 average but most of my mileage is a short commute (about 4 miles) in crappy Atlanta traffic and other driving in crappy Atlanta traffic. I get about 29 on the road with cruise at about 70-73. If I take it up to +/-80 it falls to about 25 or maybe a little better. By the way - I hate the crappy Atlanta traffic...

Also it's important to look at the real MPG computed the old fashioned way.
e.g Miles driven divided by gallons pumped in the tank,
The computer petty consistently under reports MPG by 1MPG
On my last trip, mostly 75-80MPH highway, I got 30 with my 2013 V6 Auto, stock.
It has 22,000 Miles on it, and the life time average is 23.8 MPG 40% Highway.
Short trips, Stop and Go, heavy A/C use are big MPG killers
But then at $2 per gallon for gas WHO CARES
