White,
Same. I think with steeper gears the car would be truly surprising. I re-read my post....it does come off as V6-comp-cocky, but hey....not a day goes by around this forum where I don't read, in reference to any/all V6's:
"not a real engine"
"when I drive the V6, feels like an Aveo"
"after driving the SS, the V6 feels like the e-brake is on"
...yada, yada. I say phooey. I have owned over 20 V8 pony cars. This power plant is righteous! It will never trounce an SS, but the way the V6's are treated pisses me off. It ain't 1991. In reality, the LFX is more sophisticated, and puts out more power/ sq inch than the LS. 87 octane, great mileage, decent power, great response, usable torque curve, lighter weight......what's not to dig? Ask the guy in the GTO.....he sure made a ton of racket.....I'll give him that!
