I guess I will get in on this thread too!
To the OP, yes I am satisfied with my '11 LT. For a V6 sports car, it handles well and has good performance for a 312 HP V6.
For the people that say that some of us V6'ers haven't driven a SS, I can tell you that I have driven a '11 2SS with the L99. I wasn't impressed with the auto at all. I felt as if I had to really mash down on the accelerator to get the in your face V8 acceleration. I'm sure that the LS3 would have have been a different story though. When I test drove the V6 w/ M6 tranny, it "felt" faster than the crappy auto on the SS that I test drove. Plus it is faster than my previous car, so I don't regret my decision.
But on the other hand, I like more power too! So it's only a matter of time before a SS will replace or be a welcome addition in my garage!
