Performance for performance I think the Camaro will offer good gas mileage, its just that if we do get to European levels of gas cost I’ll probably have to go to two vehicles. One fun but fuel efficient like a Cooper Clubman S ($202 less per month at $7/gal) and something just fun like a used Z4, Boxster, Elise or Corvette.

Gotcha
Yes, if you have a decent commute, a commuter car is or may be called for. My brother drives a Camry Hybrid for a rather long commute. I work from home.
