Default This is gonna seem like a funny question, but...

In these times we need to think about saving on gas and such.

Where I live, unleaded is about 3.72 a gallon at the cheap station. So, I was wondering what you Camaro owners that have the auto transmission get for gas mileage city/highway.

If your car is modded so that the mileage may have fluctuated from what it would have when the car was stock, please say something so I wont assume that a stock camaro would get some kind of unbelieveable gas mileage.

My car gets around 13 MPG in stop and go traffic with all the mods in sig. I hardly ever take it on the highway.

Drove my 2002 Camaro with headers, dual exhaust and a lid, 90 miles straight highway going 58mph cruise, filed it up with 3.101 gallons. Equals out to 29.something mpg. not bad. Then while i was in town working (insurance sales) i got 18mpg, but this was the first time i got to drive it since it was put away for winter, so my foot was hard on it maybe a bit too much
