I'm thinking he was clueless that YEAH Its a V6, But its a 300+HP Direct Injected V6 that can give a 2009 Mustang GT(V8) a Run for its money.

you are right i wish too it could stop, but its normal. i bet challengers, mustangs, vettes. all have this on there forums.

think about how all of these threads get started. its not like a v8 owner makes a thread and starts a bash fest. it is ALWAYS a v6 owner making a thread how some body either made fun, disrespects, ask if its a v8 etc. and then people like me and others are just trying to explain why some people act that way towards there car. we mean zero disrespect when we try to explain. but then they feel the need to defend themselves. when nobody is talking down to them.


yes both cars are a beauty, and thats why everyone wants them. and why we are seeing more and more of them on the road. and a camaro is a camaro!

but to be 100% honest, it does matter what engine is under the hood. why would anybody buy a v8? hell, i could have saved thousands getting a loaded v6. maybe on forum talk it doesn't matter because we try to keep a friendly environment. but in reality it simply is not as candy coded. its a harsh world out there, and people will be disrespectful. thats life. no need to get all mad over it. and come here and need people to make you feel better for buying what you bought.

it is very hard to take the reality of the world, and turn it into friendly forum talk. when somebody ask why they get crap for a v6, the real answer is thats reality, you can post on the forums, but be ware it will be candy coded.

That's "candy coated."

You really don't think you talk down to folks here with v6s?

There's lots of talk on Vette forums about stick vs auto and such, but no v6 vs v8, of course.

You should start your own car show or meeting. Make up a rule like any old school hot rods/cars are not allowed if it's not a V6 lol Also that old dude who kicked you out is.. BANNED for life!
