Depends. What kind of mileage did the V8 version get before? It's getting 25 MPG now, which from what I understand, isn't too bad for a muscle car.

I actually retracted my statement after looking at the engines. The V6 produces 305HP, which is pretty good already, with 29mpg highway. The V8 is a 6.2litre and produces 425HP at 25mpg highway, also respectable. The problem with both engines is that they are not efficient in the city. They get the high mileage on the highway by gearing, which doesn't do much in urban settings.
