I drive mostly city now and get about 240 miles per tank.
All highway, usually is about 320.
Best ever I think I got 380 out of a tank. Driving 70 miles with the low fuel light on. And it took around 13.5 gallons to fill it up that time.
I live in Detroit, I couldn't give a **** how good my car is in the "twisties."

My best was 400 running on fumes! 405 at the yellow warning light is fantastic.
Typical mileage is 340mile per tank or around 27mpg. This is on V6 MTX.

My gas mileage is finally going up, I broke 200 miles on this tank and I got quarter tank left, BTW I do pretty much city driving. I'm close to 220 miles right now, not bad for city driving really, it should go up more here soon.

I have modified my engine to run on interstellar hydrogen with a Bussard Ramjet. As soon as I finish my space suit, I am leaving this rock.
Seriously though, 250-300 miles per tank, usualy fill at 270, just over 10 gallons.

I used to get about that last year, mostly highway driving to school.
I hated putting the miles on my car, but I couldn't complain about the mileage I was getting.
