I did a 1000 mile trip on it and it was averaging 26mpg.. for a 400+ whp and 440+tq car it wasn't bad.
I don't believe my friend's M2 was tuned, so it was running stock hp, which isn't a ton more than my tuned 135i. Why is the car so much harder on consumption on the track?
It's thirsty is all I can think of. Might be it's tuned from factory safely so it's loaded on fuel under load to protect it.

The 135i is yielding me about 22 mpg. When I am pushing it around it is actually more thirsty than the M2!
