Ive always thought I was in love with it... but today my stepdad brought a rally yellow 2ss manual for the night from the dealership and it was amazing. This was the first time that I was able to ride in one and later drive it and the acceleration is crazy. The fastest we went in it was 90 and the car is so smooth it feels like so much less. Now that ive been in a v8 I dont want to be disappointed in the v6's power. To those that have driven the v6, does it have enough power to jerk your head back?

When I drove a 6, no... but it was a dealership's demo unit, with only 500 miles on it in rush hour traffic. I did get a few opportunities to mash it, and it did not jerk my head back, but was certainly quick... though not as quick as I had expected. Just my .02, everyone's impressions are going to be different.

Thanks for your input, hopefully it will have enough though for me. Im positive that it will be and I can always upgrade it in the future and get almost 400 horses out of it. Anyone else who was able to gun it?

My friend came over (in his 1996 Cobra Mustang) to check out my car, after we got back from a little drive he let me in on a little something I didn't know. His car was 305HP and that he was super impressed with this V6. Jerk your head back..... It won't give you whiplash but it'll be doing 90 much faster than you ever expected! Its great car, no second guessing needed.
