Really depends on your driving style... if your pedal always meet the metal... then it wont be good.

For myself, 8-10L/100km pure city driving. A city driving whereby i can hardly reach 80km/hr even if i want to LOL.

So the skyactiv thingie nothing to shout about. FC seems very normal. If can get 5-6L /100km city drive then its great

Yea you are probably right. If you looking for 5-6L/100km. Mazda 3 is not the car you are looking for.
Probably a hybrid may serve you better, like Prius or Pirus C ?

Yes you are right. You should go get the Toyota Camry Hybrid. As I said only a hybrid will meet your expectation.

You have to look into overall bro. It's best if you check your MZD fuel consumption data analyze. Look at the picture which I've took. The avg FC is hard for you to judge.

Basically, you need to know how you want to control your speed on the highway. Well, basically in city, you can hardly control due to the jam. Your speed have to be constant in order m3 system to show you the accurate display. If you 10 mins step 90 kph then the next 110 kph, then next 50kph, and so on, how can m3 system show you an accurate display, if you get what i mean. It's best if you observe the current FC instead of the average. For my guess, m3 system will take 90kph + 110 kph + 50kph + so on / the time running = average FC.
So far, if at constant speed, yes, i find it 80% accurate. The other 20% base on approximity / roughly (example, m3 shows 780km and u can roughly estimate 750km @ 90kph.)

Here are the pictures of the km I've been travelling from Damansara to Penang with just 1 fuel tank.

Above is the total km which i m about to refill

Above refilled. The km updated shows 797km which I'm able to drive at 110kph constantly.

Above is the price I've pump. 34.41 liter @ RM67.10 - RM1.95 per liter
Note that M3 is a 51 liter car. That gives me remaining of 16.59 liter.
Hope this give an overall that m3 is a fuel saving car depends on the speed you are going. Above is 90kph and 110kph day trip.

Well, enjoy your ride with M3 guys. =)

That is really close to what i get

90kmh gets around ~4.5l/100km
100kmh gets around ~5.0l/100km
110kmh gets around ~5.5l/100km

Mine is GL spec...don't have cruise control to ensure constant speed...tried my best to have constant speed for as long as possible with my foot.
