If you honestly don't care about "go" and you are really only in it for the "show" of the new camaro and don't need the price tag that comes with the "go" then the V6 is for you. If you are so worried about other people then this probably isn't the car for you. The camaro will be popular as a rarity for 6 months tops. Then they will be a dime a dozon and unless you are comfy with my first point you will kick yourself forever for not getting the SS.
Now on the other hand if you are like me, there is only one camaro being offered. The SS. There is NO reason to even look at this car unless I am getting the SS. Period end of story. I am here for the engine, rumble, and everything else that goes with owning a muscle car. Had a Z28 in 1997 and my buddy bought the 1998 V6 Firebird. Hated himself for 8 years that he didn't spend the extra cash to get what he REALLY wanted.
I understand why people want the V6 and I am thankful for them b/c they are the majority of the sales and keep the costs down for people like me  I just wouldn't bother looking at this car for a 300 HP V6 to me that isn't what a camaro is all about.
So my long point is get what YOU want. If you are regretting it now then you want the SS. In the market that it is in the V6 will be mostly all "show" and no "go" and when the "show" fades you will only be left with "oh you got the v6?" and be kicking yourself. (again unless you can be happy with that, most all the people I know aren't ever happy with the v6 stang or Fbody they bought. Only one daddy's girl that has a v6 stang was happy with it lol) |
He said it best, do it for yourself and nobody else. At the end of every month you will be making the car payment, not the person on the other side of the street.
