I'd keep one if it happened to be in the driveway too!
Yup, common knowledge that cruising on the highway in any of the more recent Vettes you can get a bit over 30mpg. That's different from EPA highway rating though. Honda Civic Si (with the K20, not the K24 POS they switched to) is rated what, 29mpg highway? What people actually got is more like 40mpg cruising.
