Our previous car was a Nissan Maxima 2005. It was a great car with decent power but we only got 24 mpg at best with a 3.5 ltr (265 hp) engine. Most people I've talked to get around 25-27 mpg who arent lead footed. We are getting about 26+ just after having ours tuned and with light mods. We haven't owned ours very long (about a yr) but we do hang out with other Vette owners I don't hear any abnormal stories about costly maintenance. I guess it also depends on what "up there in miles" means too. I have to admit I personally don't know any 150k mile C6 owners. But I have little doubt that, taken care of, these cars will get there easily without issue. Any mfg can spit out a lemon though.
