Its a BMW. Drive it like one, if your short shifting your fouling plugs with fuel or carbon You should see 5K rpm just about every time you drive it.
Mine gets mid 30's at 75 to 80 on the freeway... 24 around town.
Wide tires suck fuel.... Skinny hard tires save fuel.
I run premium when the outside air is over 65 under that I run 89.
E10 fuel Sucks the big one..... (10% Ethanol) 15% is worse...
I find that name brand fuel does a little better than the cut rate stuff in Oregon YMMV.
