That's where you'll save more buying the V6 and that to me is what the majority of people would most consider when opting over a V6 or V8. But nonetheless, great gas modelized gas consumption comparison.
And tires.... without the RS pkg you get 4 same tires. Allows you to rotate them, and you get replacements at Costco. It costs $800-$1000 to flip the rubber on an SS. ouch!

But I digress...
