How often you guys fill up?

Ever since I got my 2011 M3 coupe a couple months ago, I use it as my daily driver. I fill up about once a week. All city driving. Get about 235 miles a tank. Anyone here gas up more often?

Same here. Usually above a quarter so cavitation doesn't happen on track.

Probably once a week but I've had times where I've filled her up twice. I work in NYC so I usually use public transportation during weekdays and driver her on the weekends.

I have a pretty short commute to work. Maybe a distance of 5 miles on city streets, still takes me 20 minutes tho. I probably average 15-16 mpg daily. That makes me fill up every 8-10 days, sometimes longer
