Well, given that your Camaro SS is slower than a X1 with a $400 JB4 and lacks trunk space, AWD, ground clearance, etc, I'm okay with equivalent mileage! Not to mention the handling is just as good as (or better) than the SS based on slalom and skidpad numbers.

For reference, the non M-sport X1 pulled a 65.9 on all season runflat tires in the slalom at edmunds with the editors specifically saying better tires would make it go faster - the Camaro SS is at 67mph on summer performance tires.

The ZL1 is in another league entirely, of course.
