Not only in base price, but slightly less for insurance and a crapton less for gas (won't need premium and the MPG is better). With the 2LT, my loan will only be 4 years (putting half down), and I'm 23 years old. I don't want to be in a crapton of debt so early in my life, and I think a 2LT/RS Camaro is a pretty kick** car for a 23 year old (or heck, for any age). I have the rest of my life to buy a V8 if I want one.

Anyone else tired of the V6 hate? :/

That's the way it has always been with these cars and will always be...

If you enjoy your car...that's all that matters. If you bought your car to gain acceptance from someone else...you've got more problems than just having a v6 in a world of v6 haters. (I'm sure this isn't you, just making a statement about some of the buyers of this car-or any other "hot" car of the moment).

I appreciate that you were bright enough to know your limits on buying a car and have done the responsible thing. This is something that is decidely lacking in the world today!
