I think the whole point of the OP is about respecting the car you drive, you seem to be one who does (as has been said, it's not the goal to bash V6 drivers, just the ones who badge their cars as something "high end", while it isn't).
The only thing they get, well, people who know what an SS is, will notice right away... People who think it's an SS (like let's say a V6 Mustang owner), might want to give it a try and brag later on that they "smoked an SS", which they didn't...
Personally I'm with the OP, buy a car, and stick with it, don't try to pretend it's something else. For those modding the V6 and making it perform better than a stock SS, all the better, but don't pretend you're an apple if you're a pear... You'll only end up making an idiot out of yourself some day.
