I average currently 11.3 with all city driving. Average speed of 43 km/h. this is based on about 1500 km's.(Lets see those V6 guys get economy like that and make the same power :D)

When im doing hwy + city average is well below 10, I am able to do 4 return trips to Melbourne quite easily and i live on the wrong side of geelong when it comes to going to melb. If you buy any LSx make sure you have it tuned, else you are just pouring money down the drain.

thats awesome, wish i was able to tune to that kinda economy

I just got a cat back sports system on my SS. I haven't done measure but I notice that power and torque are lots better and fuel economy is also better.
My SS is better on the juice than my 4WD.
