Well we had to drive to austin last night and i had my car on cruise at 68mph, Had my mpg display on and it was doing a average of 37mpg on the freeway and i never saw it dip below 34.5mpg even on uphills. Best i saw was 42.9mpg when it was heading downhill for about 10 miles .Hmm 375hp, 37mpg average freeway sounds good to me. I think ill stick to my gtp while these people buy their ugly azz hybrids with 100hp and 45ish mpgs.

not bad. Performance mods when not performing = better mpg (I know I know, only some of them)
Everyone was like "You know.... When you get a sports car it's going to have bad MPG...." When I drove my Camaro home going 75mph (varied between 70 and 80) almost the entire way... about 400 miles on the highway (stopped for gas and some food once or twice) I got an average of 31 MPG.
This guy today brought up the bad mpg thing again... I was like "I got 31" **his eyes widen** O_O... My 4-cylinder gets like 34.......

<_< >_>.... you have a lot of mods though viper... mine is stock. When you have better intake/exhaust/cai/whatever, I would think you'd still get better mpg. Next summer or the holidays or whatever I want to do a few projects... Probably exhaust will be the first big one, followed by headers and such, followed by CAI. I expect my mpg will be roughly near 35 highway after that.Black 1997 Camaro RS<br />Mods: Headlight, Fog Lamp, Blinker, and Tail Light Blackouts<br />35% Tint Window Armor (www.windowarmorusa.com)<br />Upcoming: Replace failing driver\'s window motor and Black Power Antenna<br /> <a href=\"http://members.caComment
