Both. It is a fuel economy measure. If you can prevent jackrabbit starts via programming you can improve city fuel economy.

V8. Louder natural exhaust. Cooler interior and exterior. Warranty is intact. This is coming from someone with a C5 V6 Camaro

Everyone with a V6 that has buyers remorse pulls the I could twin turbo it card and only 1% actually do.
Stop the hate, get a V8. |

That said, I went with a V8 this time. Hopefully dump little $ into performance, and instead put towards cosmetics.

That's true for cars in general. The members on this site aren't reflective of the typical owner (even Camaro owner).

I guess it depends what you define "modest performance" as. If you won't be tracking the car, not even to a drag strip for a street car / test and tune night... what are you really worried about performance for? Passing on a two lane road? Getting up to speed on an on ramp?
Go with an SS. You'll have a warranty and a (subjectively) better sound, with MRC as an option for a better ride quality. The four cylinder will have more than enough power for everyday (non-track) driving performance though. |
