Oxygen sensor is often the culprit.

Does it have the stock ECU?

if it's all cold start city driving, with liberal use of the throttle once warmed up a bit- then it doesn't sound too weird

first port of call would be to make sure the motor was well serviced and the timing was set right (ignition and cam)

Just has a stock ECU...

Yeah needs a service pretty bad was think that could have something to do with that,

its been manly city driving though only twice been though the hills. thanks guys!!

A few things could be cause the poor fuel consumption..

O2 sensor, ecu coolant temp sensor, blocked cat, dirty injectors, seized viscous clutch fan (I've had one not lock at all and I've had one lock up completely) and as the car is new most likely has something to do with your right foot.

O2 sensors are easy to diagnose also
