:>Oh please, that's nothing to brag about. 

You're a slow learner, Sal.   I've already told you no one here is
bragging.    We're merely comparing gas mileage on the Corvettes.

:>The 2006 Honda Insight is rated @[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 45 City and 48 Highway, but with
proper driving it gets 121.7
:>MPG. http://corporate.honda.com/press/article.aspx?id=281

I don't care about any Honda.  That's why I'm reading this in
alt.autos.corvette.  You're the thread's OP and so far you've taken this
lie/troll to alt.autos.nissan,and alt.autos.porsche as well.   

:>With a few inexpensive mods, it gets 180+ MPG.
:>Corvettes require $3.75 premium gas while other cars can use $3.53 gas
:>so FUEL CENTS PER MILE is a far better way to judge economy. 

If you had a clue you'd know Corvette owner rarely if ever worry about
fuel
economy.  For the same reason we're not going to flinch at the cost of
replacement tires.   It goes with the territory.  

Whatever you drive I hope you're happy.   I'm happy for you.  Do me the
courtesy of the same, Sal.
