fuel economy???

Yeah, I was discussing the gas prices with my family and I told them I was thinking of maybe getting camaro with a V8 and they just laughed. But my 4 cylinder nissan only gets about 17 city and 26 highway, so I would'nt think the camaro would be too far off those numbers if you keep your foot out of it most of the time. Time will tell. I'd be surprised if the other cars I'm interested in (gen coupe and mits ralliart) will get any better mileage considering the gen coupe will have a tuned to the max 6 and weigh around 3500 and the ralliart will have awd and also weigh about the same...
