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. -Z

Camaro is a 'muscle' car that used to get really poor mileage. Therefore, 29 mpg is a major ungrade for a Camaro. Yeah, but what's the point of owning a Camaro with a lowly V6 in it, just to get 29mpg. They will sell a few on image and chicks, but folks who buy a Camaro for the muscle will want the bigger engine, and that will keep the car from selling in volume. This is likely to turn into another money loser for GM. The V-8 gets 25 MPG......that's not bad. No?
