Thumbs up Had to buy another one...

My 2014 SS now has some company. A new, 2015 2LS. This is the first time I've driven a V6 and I am thoroughly impressed. The V6 gets down the road a lot quicker than I ever thought it would. A comfortable, easy driving, great handling cruiser. Now tell me about some turbo charging options.....

Maybe V8 for occasional cruising and a V6 for daily driver? You can never have too many Camaros

Honestly....

I love my 5th Gen LFX but I would have waited a bit and gotten a 6th Gen V6 or even a 4 cylinder turbo.

This second car must be gas mileage....

I like my Camaro and all but would never get 2 at once.

Lol....Camaro and gas mileage???? Never a thought. If that was a factor I would have a Cruze diesel. Fortunately, mpg is not something I need to think about.

I like the gen5 a lot, I stumbled onto a great deal while i was out on a cruise in my SS, I have room in my garage.... So why not?

Nice purchase. Direct injection, continuously variable valve timing, double overhead cams, 4 valves per cylinder, 11.5:1 compression, 7500rpm rev limit, integrated exhaust manifolds. There's a lot of high tech going on in that engine. And the best of all, it sounds like an exotic when you romp on it.

After trading in my V6 for a V8 I was expecting to be blown away by the difference. But in the end I'm even more impressed with what a modded V6 can do. No shame at all in those cars.

Well congrats then.

I love my V6 when I had it. It has more performance then most here give it credit for.
