Heres the deal. If you want don't want to mod the car, get the LT. HOWEVER, if you do want to, which seems like that is your case, get the SS. The reason being because with the v6, you WILL eventually hit the barrier where there's nothing left to do anymore, and you'll only be craving more. So in your case, get the SS, otherwise, you'll experience buyer's remorse. Thank me later
