Arrow Have a 3rd gen? I have questions

Ok I im debating on getting a 3rd gen camaro again, (last one was an 1986 z28 I owned 10 years ago) my questions are with real world driving heavy foot and all what kind of mpgs are you getting? Ideally I would like to get an 88-92 V8/a4 and this would be something I would drive every day roughly at least 80 miles a day (round trip mostly highway) what mods do you have for those mpgs?
any additional input is appreciated.

Im getting pretty good mpg out of mine when i keep my foot out of it. I never really checked but my mpg is not far off my womans cavalier on the highway. Iv got a stock lq4 with headers, duals, cold air intake, and a th350. Everything else other than the tune is factory gm truck junk

Is it even possible to find a stock one? The newest one is 21 years old.

It is still possible to get a stock one , the best way to get it to become reliable is throwing an lsx
And good gas mileage ....

I have an 87 iroc with heads cam intake and ton of other stuff done
