135i Average MPG Poll V2 - Let's get serious!

[Matticus91]

Alright after messing around recently with this post MGM135is made the suggestion:

THE 135i MEGA-MPG THREAD!!

I can't get too crazy with this or the poll would have unlimited options depending on mods, climates, elevations, etc. So I'll keep it as reasonable as possible to see what kind of real world measurements these cars are getting.

This poll is for 135i's only, no 128's here since they get very different numbers, if someone wants to see that, feel free to make a thread!

So here are the rules, vote for your highest average MPG in the city, and your highest average MPG on the highway. For example, I managed a best of ~21MPG city recently over the course of a few days. The best I've done on the highway was around 30mpg on a long roadtrip. Combining the averages will show us some interesting insight to the capabilities of these cars.

A few hours of hypermiling, starting your counter while already traveling, does not count

Extra credit to those who vote and also make a post including the details of their car (year, mods, miles, etc.) as well as some insight on their location (hot/cold/temperate, sea level/high altitude) and the mpg ratings they voted for.

Make your mark!

To start us off:
My car is a 2013 with around 60k on the clock. Potentially relevant mods are a CP-E Charge Pipe, Berk Street Axle-Back, and a JB4 always on Map 5 (autotuning). I live at sea level in a temperate climate.

Managed ~21mpg city REALLY milking it after putting in a new trans and 30mpg doing my best on a 700 mile road trip of 99% completely flat highway.

I have a 2013 135is with DCT. I am currently 100% OEM and have 20,000 miles on the odo. I get 21.5 city if I leave the car in drive and 29mpg on the highway (70-75mph). I typically get around 20mpg city if I put the car in sport mode. I am the second owner so don't have a lot of data points yet.

Thank you by the way.

My personal experience, 30s for both in best case, single digits for both in worse case.

Hard to vote in these categories separately. I drive about 50-50 city and highway and my overall mpg is 24.5.

Peace

30mpg average in the city???? I find that hard to believe

2008 E88 w/Dinan S3.

City 22, Hwy 27 mpg, but again, using the power has more reward for me than achieving top rung mileage. Course that was with 17" square tire setup. Have not measured over any time/distance since 313s went on.

agreed

I haven't driven the car purely in the city for an extended period of time, but i should be right around the 15-18 mpg mark based on my highway/mixed driving. I get 24ish mpg highway cruising at 75mph despite the 3.46 gearing. With mixed driving i averaged 20.5 mpg this summer.

You have to hypermile and not really need to stop the car so it's only valid for shorter trips at night and stuff like that.

Ah I wouldn't call that city driving then, I think most would define city driving as constant stop and go. The EPA test involves 23 stops in 11 miles.
