03/04 cobra highway mpg

winterftbl · November 2nd, 2008, 07:08 PM

What kind of mpg are you seeing on the highway? Just curious. Thanks Winter

1StockGT · November 2nd, 2008, 08:08 PM

I've never sat down and averaged out my mpg, but I usually get around 200-240 on a full tank. I never run mine down much past a quarter tank either.

half of my driving is city and half is highway, but im averaging about 18 mpg and about 230-250 a tank. i'm sure it would be over 20 if all my driving was highway though...

Lefty · November 3rd, 2008, 09:31 AM

I'm assuming with stock gears? i voted 21

Wheres the "WIsh I had a Terminator" button?

rk_2000_Z/28 · November 3rd, 2008, 10:29 AM

I haven't technically had a full tank of nothing but highway driving, but I've gotten it close. I averaged 22-23 and that is with the mods I have (smaller pulley)

thats what i wanna know. my 96 gt is getting 24.xx with 70% highway and i think i could do better after i get my fuel issue figured out

Mustang RacR94 · November 3rd, 2008, 10:50 AM

ive heard of them getting over 25 mpg on the highway, ive gotten 24 with my mach 1, driving it like a grandma

BoostFiend · November 4th, 2008, 04:41 AM

I recently took about an 800 mile trip in my Cobra and saw 22-24 mpg so I voted 23. I have only put 2500 miles on my car this year so when I do I am generally on the throttle quite a bit so around town I see about 12-15. lol

1StockGT · November 4th, 2008, 09:54 AM

I just realized this was for highway miles and what I listed above was for city driving. I haven't driven mine for a full tank on the highway yet.

LSWONGTO · November 8th, 2008, 10:14 AM

H/C/I LS2 GTO and at 70 in 6th it gets 25.5. and it has 453 rwhp to

NA FTW!!

Jim03SVT · November 20th, 2008, 01:52 PM

thanks to a 6 speed I'm still getting over 21 on the highway w/ 4:30's

Mystic Venom · November 20th, 2008, 02:14 PM

it depends. on a good tank i get 250 but its usually not that good lol 220 is about average.

HBK_2007 · November 20th, 2008, 02:51 PM

jamiehatch · February 27th, 2011, 09:51 AM

^then why post in this thread its for 03/04 cobras, durrrr

va boy · March 3rd, 2011, 12:19 AM

22mpg last time I checked. It's hard to run out a full tank and check mileage without getting into the boost MANY times over!
