My 03 Cobra with a supercharged V8 making 450hp to the wheels gets that mileage! The best route they could go would be to put in a motor similar to the Cobalt SS's LNF turbo engine.
True but my roommate gets a little better then that but he almost never 4500 rpm. And my Z gets about 19-20 depending on how sunny it is (i hate driving in the rain)
