Not too shabby, but could be better...

Here is the stats:
17/27 with the 3.6L DI VVT v6 (304HP@6400RPM/273ftlb@5200RPM) & 6-spd Auto
15/23 with the 6.2L v8 L99 (400HP@5900RPM/410ftlb@4300RPM) & 6-spd Auto (only) - SS only
14/24 with the 6.2L v8 LS3 (426HP@5900RPM/420ftlb@4600RPM) & 6-spd Manual (only) - SS only

Nice! But, do I detect a hint of Mustang in the shape (side on?)

No offense guys but we don't see many of these on our roads.

Looks like the mileage figures have been updated for the V6:

The best I've ever done with my LT1 6-speed was 28mpg (highway). LS1 6-speeds can get over 30. Of course 4th gens are much lighter and way more aerodynamic.

Not too shabby. I get low 20's on the highway with mine but I do have heads/cam/exhaust work done not to mention my 18" chrome wheels
