On our way to the Porsche driving experience in Atlanta we decided to talk about some fuel economy numbers. We will post a video later about our experience in a GT3 and GT4 and the contrast between these cars and the 350. Let me know what you think and if you have any ideas for future videos. Thanks

Adam, I'm getting worse gas mileage on track and on the street in my 350 compared to my Boss. I actually got 26 mpg in my Boss, once, just as advertised. And I even hit 100 mph on that tank. :p

The gt350 is worse for highway fuel economy but I got 7 vs 6mpg on track. Basically what I'm saying is the GT350 is saving the earth with phenomenal fuel economy. Ok, not really :)

Could be car to car.............................

2012 Boss 302 22-26mpg on the highway
2013 Boss 302 19-21 mpg on the highway

Could never get top mileage out of the 13 compared to the 12, though both were at 5-6 at the track.

Interesting to see if the GT 350 gets any better when it gets here?!

Not sure I'm proud that I'm saving the environment since I have a '12 or bummed because perhaps I'm sacrificing performance for fuel milage. Which begs the question - which is heavier, the 12 or 13?
