what kind of gas mileage I am thinking of buying an automatic 2001-02 Camaro Z28-SS for a daily driver and was wondering what kind of gas mileage you guys are getting. I know my LS1 vette gets good gas but it is 93 octane and the camaro is 87 octane. thank you for the help.

I have been running 93 in my stock (with catback) 2002 SS LE M6 and have been getting nearly 20mpg in the city (usually about 18-19mpg but it seems to differ a bit). I haven't driven it much on the highway yet.
I have never put 87 in my car, but does it make that big of difference?

Oh, and if the cost of premium gas is a problem for anyone then there's a cute little Civic with your name on it...

I love how my friends tell me that my car doesn't need premium and I'm just wasting my money. Even my friend who has a Mustang GT and is like all gas is the same. Maybe for your 4.6 V8 but my 5.7 ls1 Formula deserves the best of the best 93 octane only. These cars aren't being made anymore man and I'm gonna make mine last hopefully have another F-body some day too. Always did want a camaro
