Man I'm glad I don't care about bs like this thread! More to life then worrying about how many cars are faster then yours. If thats it then I would think your into serious racing and wouldn't have a heavy car anyway and it would be modded to the hilt as it should be.
I'v been driving along time and never worried who was faster and I dont think many on the road do , nor been in but one street race either.
from my expierence don't worry about your v6 Camaro,it's plenty quick on the street where most of us live 99.99% of the time. Granted mine's not stock but I am impressed how fast the car moves out with light to moderate gas. I feel it is no slower under any similar driving situation on the street then my 98 z28 that has 335 rwhp, m6 and roadrace suspension. Only in a 0-60/ 1/4 mile would it obviously be faster. And that is the point, you don't drive with a stop watch or an x mas tree going green and you cannot tell or know you are going a 1/2 second faster or slower I dont think. It was all of this over 28 years of driving v8 Camaros that led me to buy the v6 as a daily driver when I wanted a new car, the v8 on the street, or a faster v6, is for me a waste of a car, a good waste, but still never be able to use it the way it was intented, not in L.A. traffic. The V6 is plenty fast, responsive and plane fun!!
