It makes total sense that the V6 will make up 2/3 of the sales. That also means that the pricing of the V6 and base V8 will be set rather far appart, 5K or more. As for the fuel economy, it fits with what the CTS DI is making. Actually a little higher which leads me to believe its tuned for economy not power, making it the 280 hp version. But it also practically rules out the non-DI 3.6. The 'economy Camaro' isn't going to pull 2 mpg more out of the engine in the 'economy CTS'. Just my take on things.

Believe it. I didn't change anything else. With the price of gas, I've been somewhat gentler in my driving before the switch to nitrogen and I've done nothing else but that and it has improved. In my area the local car dealer charged me $46 for four tires. I'll recoupe that price by the end of this month.

Wonder why it gives such an improvement. Were your tires underinflated before?
