altho he may be right, i was seriously looking into straight up tradeing this guy for his formula, for my sixxer. He wanted mine so he can still cruse around town without dumping cash in the tank. When i went to test drive it ( granted it had 130000 miles and no exhast from the cat back) i was not impressed at all with it. maybe it was just the way the car was treated idk but i kept my lil v6 instead of trading. but like ive been saying for a while- to each, his own.
im glad you have a new respect for your car, thats awsome.

If he only has a can on it a Z28 should take him no problem! As long as the driver knows how to drive decently.

I can get 30MPG cruising at 90MPH in my 99 Z28 6 Speed. I did 200 miles(from Austin, TX to Rockwall, TX) in 2 hours and only used 6.5 gallons of gas. I was cruising between 80-90MPH the whole way down I-35 and 635 and I stopped at the Rockwall TA Truck stop to and fill back up(I wish I could've had a picture taken of my face after I calculated my gas mileage Lol). I filled up in Austin before I hit I-35. I was really shocked! If I am cruising under 75MPH my gas mileage goes down a little bit. I would guess around 24-26MPG(somewhere in there), but it I can stay on or between 80-90MPH I get 30MPG. I love my Z!

Awesome dude! I would be pumped to! I love Camaros!

And yeah tell me about it! I was surprised as hell when I read my calculator. I re-calculated it 3 times, and re-check my trip odometer each time! I do alot of Highway driving for college because I live 40 miles from my college so I was really happy with that. I just couldn't believe that I was getting the same gas mileage as my civic, with a/c, radio, faster speed, better sound, and more fun! My civic gets 30 MPG, but it has no a/c, is slower, very loud(obnoxious), and isn't even close to as fun as my camaro! The civic was my first lil "sports" car. It has a full motor/tranny swap and stuff. I thought I was some hot **** in that car. When I drove my camaro home, I realized how bad it really was Lol! I drove the civic a couple days ago(after a month straight of just driving the camaro), and all I could do was laugh! But yeah know, ya live and you learn right lol! But yeah I'm glad you showed that dude what a real car is! If you wanted my opinion on what to get, I would suggest a Z dude. I love the rumble and just the drivability of the V8! It's a blast to drive!
