Don't let him fool you. I have friends with these cars and they get around 27mpg. There is no way you only get 22mpg. I have a 95 Z28 and I get better than 22mpg.
I got over 780 km's out of a tank when we drove to Quebec City. I get 430-460 km's mixed driving per-tank. It takes almost the identical amount of money at premium that it took me to fill the Civic LX rental I had when I got sideswiped by a 300. I only got 80 more klicks out of that tank (which is bigger than the SS's). That's pretty bad considering the Si has worse economy. 260hp, turbo, no lag, 0.92 g on the skidpad, 8.22 on the ring, nearly absent torque steer = SS Turbo ftw.
You must not have done it before. I had it optional with my tuner software on my STI and didn't use it often, but the few times I tried it out it was pretty thrilling flat-foot-shifting at 6.5k rpms
i own a 2010 ss . it is a nice car. though ive found the clutch to be a tricky s.o.b for me dunno why it can be tempermental with me at times . car hooks like crazy i try to burn the tires half the time itll spin for a second and hook . i put 93 octaine in it and ive never spent more than 20 bucks on the pump no i dont get a full tank with that but i can be on e and itll go 3 bars away from full. which that lasts me 2 weeks avrg and i hav trouble stayin off the gas and im getin use 2 stick stil
General Motors announced today that it is recalling 1.3 million cars because the steering may fail while you are driving. The recall affects the 2005 to 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt.

unless youre gunna do a little bit of racing the regular 4 door is a better car: cheaper, much better on gas, roomier in the trunk and the rear

I borrowed a friend's Cobalt SS once. It looks nice but the whole car felt cheap. And I didn't feel safe in it. Hope the new Cruze does better.

Great review! It's amazing that this car ran 104 mph in the 1/4 mile from Road & Track magazine. Nice all around car for the $
