niky,

corvettes have unusually good fuel consumption (compared to similar sports cars)

the previous gen corvette has an EPA rating of 19/28 (city/highway) for its 6-speed M/T model.

in comparison here are the EPA of some other cars (all have 6-speed M/t)

mazda miata 20/26
m3 16/23
acura nsx 17/24
dodge viper 12/20

this is the ultimate porsche / ferrari killer...

was that the same car they tested in top gear? or was that the outgoing model?

[ssaloon]

ah ok... panget reviews nila sa body composition and interior (cheap materials daw gamit) pero iba talaga handling and straight line speed niya.
