HAHAHAHAHAHA sorry to say but the V8s get the same gas mileage
That's what I get in the GT with 4.10s
This is a V6 shouldnt I be around 25 MPG stock?
Mines an 04, 5 spd. and gets 17.5 city if I keep my foot out of it.
It may not be flaming but it's not positive either.

My mileage depends... I took mine up to VT this past weekend and a combined city/highway was 23 mpg, but the top was up. The first tank I got 18mpg combined but the top was mostly down then. We may only have V6's but if you want a sports car we really can't complain about how much we spend in gas or on insurance.

you should probably say stock or near stock GTs.

RE: V6 MILES PER GALLON???
yeah, I got screwed on mileage too. The guy I bought it from was like "I easily get 19mpg in the city".
BS. My average so far, is about 13mpg. Its a 98 5mt, but I do like to rev it up quite often, which is probably the route of my problems, but I've put new plugs, air filter, fuel filter, and used seafoam to clean the entire engine out, and after all that, I think it oculd have gone up, butnow I'm getting a bit more power than when I bought it, so its even more tempting to open it up. Although when I'm really trying to save gas, I can get about 18mpg, but the econo driving never lasts me more than a few days before I get the need to blow past a ricer, even with my super slow sixer.
