#23 of 25 '09 Auto Coupe by dwarfl0rd Jun 01, 2009 (5:50 pm)
I have a '09 Auto Coupe C6 Vette with 5,xxx miles on it. I just took a 1,3xx mile trip from Va. to TN and back and I averaged 31MPG for the entire trip. Wait till this car is broken in! I also averaged 70.4MPH. This car gets great Hwy fuel economy because its revs are so low. My car has 430+HP and is the most efficient Hwy car I own. City driving is not so good. Im in Stop/Go traffic the whole 12 miles of my commute to work and get about 18MPG, which is not bad at all for that kind of driving.
#24 of 25 2008 MPG by gearup72 Jun 16, 2009 (7:00 pm)
I have a 2008 corvette base with Auto, F55, and dual mode exhaust. I get 25 to 27 MPG on the highway at speeds of 70-80. I get 20 to 22 MPG in mixed driving.
#25 of 25 93 Ruby she get's about the same by gmscam Sep 02, 2009 (4:05 am)
My baby averages 17-19 city and log hauls 29 give or take a a mile. Don't really watch it that often or notice changes with speed but that's pretty consistant for her when I do check. Glad to know I'm not crazy when I tell people what I'm getting they say can't be.
