With the active fuel managment system, and 400HP V8, 23-26MPG on the freeway is not terrible by any means. Some of today's 4cyl. 200HP+ Turbo cars that require premium fuel don't really do that much better when you start comparing real fuel mileage and requirements for super unleaded.
Being a former owner and restorer of 12 different 68/69/70/72 Camaros, I did not care for this prototype car much when it first came out. After seeing it this last year in person, it has started to grow on me a bit but I won't conclude judgement until actually seeing one on the lot in true form.
It's actually amazing to me this project even got off the ground, and that it will be produced by GM. What an amazing time in life to be reliving new versions of Mustangs, Chargers, Camaros. Can't wait to see them on the road.
