So when I get to where we are going I pop the hood and what is there to my surprise...a V6 engine cover, 6 spark plugs, V6 belt routing, and even V6 engine parts sticker on the underside of the hood. The VIN is also that for a V6 car.

So, what is the deal with this "SS". I even searched the VIN and it comes up as a convertible 2LT. How can they rent this as a SS??? Am I missing something here? Im not crazy that is a V6 in there right?

Some pictures below:
Any other exterior pictures? Besides the fake SS badge, surely you would've immediately realized that it was a V6? Unless they did a SS front end conversion, etc.?
