Except the fuel economy isn't the same. I guess we should be talking about the Cayman S, with its 3.4L engine, to make things slightly more fair, but it's rated higher on the EPA than the Corvette.
But yes the fuel economy is surprisingly good on the Vette, but I wouldn't want to be caught in stop and go traffic with that 6.2L V8 :P Even in 4 cylinder mode I imagine that thing drinks more than its fair share of gasoline while idling.
