Default 2002 SS -- Radagast the White

Hi all,

Recently I bought a 2002 SS in pure white. A friend of mine had a 6th gen MC LS in college and the thing had 230k+ miles on it and ran beautifully. He wasn't one get it repaired so the thing really left an impression on me. A recent move meant that I needed a new car and figure that the MC would be a good choice given my history with my friend's. His car was brown and he's about to get rid of it so when I bought my white Monte I decided to name it Radagast the White. Kinda like his car got reborn to service me.

What kinda gas mileage do y'all 6th generation SS's get? I'm getting just under 20mpg, I live in the city and commute 20 miles one way in not-quite-gridlock traffic.

I'd post a picture of my car here but I can't figure out how to do it directly from my hard drive. Click this sentence for a picture of it I put on Imgur (large photograph).

Are you missing the front and rear ground effects?

Yeah it doesn't have the ground effects, not sure why. I don't mind it though I like the rounded out shape of the car better, actually. I saw on the forum someone took the spoiler off their trunk exposing the hump. I thought that looked really good.
