Do you live on an island? (Actually, I do). 2010? GM Needs to worry 2009. GM is crumbling while Korean car manufacturers are not. Want more proof? Take a look at GM’s balance sheet.
o really? I dont think so because my car gets 29mpg’s on the highway with bolt on’s.
My friends cammed C6 was getting 32.5mpg’s on the way up to lake george one day. How do I know? Because the digital over head mpg gauge told us so…and thats with 440rwhp under your right foot.
Digital over head MPG gauge? Laugh. Yea, I got one too. It says I get 28 on the highway but somehow ALL of the gas pumps are f0ked because they indicate I only get 18 highway. :lol
yeah in 6th the GTO gets like 32 at 65mph with the cruise on… but touch the pedal at all and it goes to like 7 or 8mpg. thats what the REAL TIME MPG thing says on the center display. do i beleive it, nope. 10 gallons got me like 160miles… more realistic i think. 16mpg.
its good until you touch the pedal. with the cruise on at 75 which is the average speed in a 65 zone. i was seeing “24.5” on the display. which isnt TERRIBLE by anymeans. but any movement of the pedal, or a grade change and it dipped right down. around town my “average” mpg was like 13.2.
Nice edit but I am too fast for you both on this forum and in a car.
So, what can’t I grasp? Are you really unable to grasp the concept that a meter might not be accurate? The fact is that EPA ratings changed for a reason. The 4XXRWHP isn’t averaging 32.5MPG on the highway even with Jesus driving it.
i went to quote what he said. and it changed right when i clicked it
real world mileage varies from these stupid EPA tests. will the GTO get 32mpg in the real world… maybe if you coast and do 55 and are on a flat highway or a downhill run. but mid 20s is realistic on the highway. my 1.8 GTI gets 32ish on the highway. and thats a stretch
gas mileage doesnt scare me. i burned alot in the GTO that last day it was nice and it was fun. id rather enjoy driving and pay more in gas, then drive a boring care… my GTI gets good mpg on the highway, but this year with 830cc injectors, at WOT with alot of boost its gonna be a gas guzzler, and i dotn care one bit!
