but ok, you win this bench racing game. Your V6 Camaro is fasssssssssttt. Just dont find yourself lined up against a SS or a GT or even a 2011 Mustang V6....or a certain Alpine White M3. coulda woulda shoulda

Dude, are you a woman? You seriously remind me of my ex. All I was asking was if the 95 m3 ran mid 14's. You said yes. You also said the m3 would spank the v6 camaro. Which you are 100% wrong. There would be no spanking from the m3. It looks like it would be a close race. Nowhere did I say any car was fast. Nothing I hate more then people putting words in other people mouths and thinking they are badass for doing it.

What is your deal? Seriously?

Wow, ok, this the last time I direct any post towards you.

95 m3 runs mid 14's. V6 Camaro runs mid 14's. I called you out when you said a 95 M3 would "SPANK" the v6 camaro. That is all I am saying.

Best time I've run in my car so far is 14.1. That was NOT with all my mods. Waiting for cooler weather to run with my mods. Not bad for 23k car...

Lets not forget that this guy at Morano Racing got this whole thing going, but we cant read his original comments becuase they were DELETED (wonder why). Like when he said all of us V6 owners somehow deep down "regretted" getting the V6 instead of the V8. That it wasn't our firm choice.

Now he says:


I don't give a crap whether someone has a V6 or V8 or if they are faster in the 1/4 mile. There will always be someone faster!!!

As long as its my money I'll get what I want for whatever reason I want. For me it did not make sense to spend the extra 10k on an SS for my daily driver. If it works for someone else then go for it and enjoy.

I love Camaros period.

And to the OP I had no problems whatsoever with your original post. You are fortunate for having the opportunity to own both and offer your opinion.

If you have to have a V8 to feel like more of a man you have some serious issues. Just pure ignorance. Do you even have a Camaro???

Who drives "a few" anyway???

Low post count.....Check

Take the insults somewhere else.

My whole point is that fuel efficiency isn't much different, certainly 4 mpg isn't the reason someone would pick a 6 over an 8, especially when you get roughly 35% more HP for that 4 mpg difference.

And you're not comparing apples/apples in terms of trim options if you're comparing the LS to the SS.

ETA - you drive a 1LT, so compare that price to a 1SS. It's not a 10K difference.

Dude your obviously blind or just being stupid as the site clearly says 29mpgs which I pasted directly from the site so that topic there is dead no matter what you say. 29mpg's is as big a difference then 24mpgs as 312hp is to 400hp, and yes you will void your warrantee and hurt your engine putting in 87 into an SS. I think you need to read more
Finally I have a 2LT/RS w Sunroof , So I would have to compare that to a 2SS/RS with sunroof

I'm sorry guys -- this thread looks awful to anyone passing by the site: Nothing but infantile arguing over something stupid like this.

Let me take a leaf out of Fbodfather's quote book and remind you all that the word "Camaro" means friend, comrade, or pal. I would hope we'd all attempt to live up to that, being enthusiasts and all...
