Now that that my earlier response is out out of the way I'll respond to the OP.

Some may just not understand, but I don't really have a big desire for the SS. Sure..if I could get the glorious sound from my V6 I'd be in heaven...but the car is plenty quick. People talk about these things like they are the 140 or 160 HP (whatever it was) V6s from the 80s or 90s when in reality these cars are capable of doing 0 - 60 in under 6 seconds which is still pretty respectable these days and unheard of for the working man's pony car not that long ago.

I tell them my car is making probably 340 ish HP (Oh sorry..its at the crank) and I'm perfectly fine with that from a little V6.

The only complaint I have about the car is the weight. Otherwise..I freaking love it.
