Thanks.
Similar mpg. Not the same. The E70 is heavier than the E53.

Edit to add: I just traded in my 05 3.0 for an 07 4.8 last weekend. Night and day difference. The 3.0 doesn't even compare to the 4.8. However, my 3.0 got 20 mpg combined with a lot of mixed highway and city driving. The 4.8 is getting about 12-13mpg local city driving but I did get 20 mpg on the highway while driving it home last weekend from the dealer.
