Couldn't tell you, installed the skip shift the day I had the car (now it's tuned out anyway). Did the same thing in my WS6 that I had, installed it at the dealer on pickup.

Good try though

Then let's play by your rules as to the HP comparison between the manual V6 and the V8 SS. I notice you didn't mention that the ZL1 eclipses your 103 HP edge and raises the ante another 155 ponies. But hey ,who's counting?

You are correct it does, I was just stating facts just like you? And if I could have afforded a ZL1 you bet your ass I'd have one. ZL1 > SS. Not sure your point here. Worth every penny

My point was is that you were bloviating as to the HP comparison of your M6 SS over the M6 V6 and failed to acknowledge the difference between your own and the ZL1.

I don't understand why so many people have an issue with the skip shift. Mine RARELY pops up. And it only ever does if I shift at like 15 mph. So it never really bothers me

Or how about 103HP comparing M6 vs M6

Also 3.27 vs 3.45 gears

278 ft-lbs vs 420 ft-lbs ----> Every V6 vs V8 argument seems to overlook this

I could go on but being a former V6 owner and actually liking my previous car I don't want to shit on the car, just making sure the quoted poster understands it's more then "76 hp" blah blah blah
Oh, Damn! I missed all the fun! You're right! I was going to say except for the manual ! but didn't feel like it because both are a SS ! And I'd be getting a auto if it was a SS! So 76 HP stands true for the auto! Maybe the manual has more kick!

Yeah, but he keeps coming back. He might also ask why you bought an automatic.

Dude are you really serious about comparing a V6 camaro to a V8????? There is absolutely NO (ZERO) comparisons in any way, form, or farmat performance wise. Im not knocking any V6 owners on here but just get real with yourself bc thats laughable if you are for real.

I wish that I could have a auto and a manual! But California roads are almost packed like New York's! I might still get a manual ! But I love auto's too!
