I'd like to know what kind of gas mileage you getting? I know it's irrelevant driving a big block 7.0, but I'm looking to buy a C6Z. I don't want to be so broke I can't buy gas. Thanks!

 

I'm at 20K miles on my 07' Z. I average 25 mpg back and forth to work, (80% freeway driving). It will do better than that on trips, (26.5-27). Stay out of it and it does very well. It is explosive if you need it to be. You will love it.

You've seen mine. 21 city and 28 hwy

Nice sig! Too bad I can't spell "Buy".

 

WHAT...!!! That's so good for a 7.0L! That info push me even more on buying that rolling chassis.

 

I've only had mine a couple of days but it isn't looking too good around the city. I can almost see the gauge go down as I drive. The C5 Z is much better.

 

I average about 16 and I drive rather aggressively.

 

18mpg city and not babying it
25mpg hwy


Not bad for a 610hp NA car.

 

that wheel hp or crank? What do you have on your car?

 

The LS7 is one efficient monster big block! The performance golden era is here!

 

If you are buying a C6 Z, you should be able to afford $4 gas.

 

Wow

It is a small block, not a big block.

Dusty, you should have caught that...... LOL

 

i could have sworn the c6z was still a small block?!???

 

John do you think it might have something to do with the weight of your right foot.....

Very true!! But it never hurts to be money conscience in todays economy. We all wish gas was cheaper!

Most individuals don't realize how fuel efficient these new Z's really are. "Small block 427ci" and "fuel efficient" are two phrases that are typically not used in the same sentence.

 

Can't put a price on a WOT run in the Z!

 

When I had mine I would see between 24-25, and that was a pretty good mix of both city and highway. It could have been better, but better = less fun....and the Z is FUN!!!

 

I can't seem to keep it above 13 I reset it today, had it going good at 22mpg, then I got the need for speed. 5 minutes later it was down to 12.8.

Same here

 

Sure you can. About $55-60K and getting cheaper each week.

Oh, even cheaper than that. $48-49K near me. Some 06's will be very affordable in another year, around $43-46K.
