Why does the V6 look better than the SS??

DDustiNN · 05-16-2015, 04:02 PM

I know it's just personal preference, but I really like the small lip spoiler on the V6 model. I've never liked wing spoilers like the SS has.

Same goes for the front. I kinda prefer the cleaner look of vertical lights on the V6 rather than the horizontal ones on the SS.

Do you think these set in stone like before, based on the model? Because I'm getting an SS for sure, but you know, just curious

EDIT:
Well that was quick! As expected, I've changed my mind.

It was that PDF sales guide that did it. The SS just looks so good.

All about perspective. I, for one, think the SS looks better. I hate the fake chrome.

Well, back when the 2010 was revealed I felt the exact same way. I didn't like the SS front face, and liked the RS because it was cleaner and more like the concept. But that changed pretty quickly, haha. I'm sure the same thing will happen here.

We don't know for sure.

Could be PVD, but could also be chrome. Not many good ways to get bright on the front of a car other than chrome.

Also, I'm not sure, but I think the difference may be the front is just different between the V8 and V6/I4.

i think we are many the site is slow to respond...

yes it looks better. but still i would choose the SS.

I also like the non ss front. It looks more corvette-ish. SS version looks more 5th gen.

I think the SS looks way better than the RS, but I want an RS spoiler on an SS.

I understand that the wing is there for performance reasons, but I will never go fast enough for it to matter.

I like the SS front better. Looks more aggressive.

Don't think so as I read "halogen projectors" were standard. Was hoping hid headlights would be on all models. Does that mean dual headlights on non RS models? So many things to find out!!!
