Something you'll never see in an M3...

Krueger///M3 · 07-11-2008, 07:39 PM

I saw this when I was on a trip down to Bend on Wednesday in my E90.

Krueger///M3 · 07-11-2008, 07:56 PM

The tank holds 15.9 and it took about 5/8s-3/4 of a tank round trip for around 7 hours of driving, it was pretty good.

EDIT: That trip mileage (the 413/464 miles) reading wasn't reset before the trip or after filling up, it is incorrect.

Nice, so when are you going to tell us how you actually accomplished that?

Neema · 07-11-2008, 08:43 PM

I'm assuming that was your average fuel consumption display, and not your real-time display, because I've got mine to say 99mpg before

SlammedR8 · 07-11-2008, 08:57 PM

It was in my E90 325i. Check out the edge of the speedometer, it only shows 160.

Yeah it was the average over a few hundred miles.

In the M3, this would be accomplished with a strong wind from behind while going down a hill.

Sorry, I'm bad at multi-quotes.

That was funny!

I can think of some things you won't see in your 325... starting with 8400 RPM on your tach
