Yea, I have 6300 on mine but mpg has always been 17.8-19.8 since day one.Mostly city with a freeway run on the weekend.Did 26 on freeway to San Diego but that had traffic amd city as well so would have been better. That being said I have never tried to get good mpg!
The car will definately get better with time. Mine felt stronger at 1500 and more at 2500. I think aluminum engines need about 4-6000 miles at least to breakin for best performance, I know My 98 LS1 did. One guy kept getting faster up to about 25000 miles !
