And you MOSTLY Driving in Traffic, will cut down on your MPGs as well.. With no traffic i'd bet you'd be at 25-26 mpgs.

Also, tuning has a big impact in how much MPGs your getting, so does your timing.. are you tuned?

plus those corvettes run on 4 cyl to achieve 32mpg so that is obviously not a 6.2 when it pushes out 32mpg...and i dont know where you got 32mpg i highly doubt that everywhere online only says 16 city 26 highway....

my friends sr16ve b13 se-r (complete swap including trans, ecu, maf)

mods:
xtd 13lb flywheel
gspec pulleys
ssac header 2.5
2.5 mandrel exhaust with high flow cat
warm air intake with velocity stack and k&n filter
walbro 255

car freakin runs like clock work, like it Came that way factory an has been stored and maintained for years..

my friend gets NEARLY 40mpg hwy!! depending on how fast he's goes, i think he gets like 30-35 mixed driving not exactly sure.. he did a tests to and from las vegas and was all hwy.

these mpg's are the Only reason he hasn't gone 2.0 yet.

Stock VZ-R with 180K km on it. Get about 24MPG daily driving to work 20 minutes each way through hilly suburbs, 2 cold starts a day. Has brand new Nissan O2 sensor, cleaned MAF and new 82degC thermostat. Best I ever got was about 30-31MPG highway years ago but never do that kind of driving in it any more. The 1600 works pretty hard to get anywhere and from what I've seen they always get worse economy.
