That V6 is one hell of a motor best bargin out there for the money easy. There is no doubt in my mind some of the SS owners would have got the V6 over the SS as its plenty of motor but couldnt take a test ride as a lot of dealerships arent letting test drive's. I see a lot of posts for guys worried about not enough power for a heavy car like the camaro rest assured you will be happy trust me on that. My only gripe im still struggling is the sound of a V6 for a car like this. Its growing on me though very quickly. A couple other quick things that i wasnt sure about from the test ride's is the sunroof isnt happening with this car. It just wrecks the beautiful lines of the roof losing your reverse mohawk and auto just takes all the fun away for me anyways driving this car. Manual unless you have bad knee's or lots and lots of traffic only way to fly imo. Also victory red is simply amazing in person much more so then in picture's
Regarding the sunroof, the main reason why we are getting it is it allows light into the car. Otherwise, it's too dark for my taste. Everycar I've had has had a sunroof. We sat in an SS w/ no sunroof and hated it.
