Farewell My V6 Brothas!!!!!

So I went to the dealership today for service on my 2LT RS.....and fell in love with a Transformer Edition 2SS LS3. So, I bought it! I have learned a bunch about the V6, and it is a great car, but I decided that I'd rather have the 8. Thanks for answering all my questions. Now I get to learn about the V8!

Congrats!

Did you get any grief for changing the exhaust?
Are the deals in Orlando that Good?

You know I din't go with the SS because all the GM dealer in my area were playing games with the markup 5-8K over stiker, otherwise I would be driving one now.
For the record I don't think I would be any happier because I'm quite content with my V6 which probalbly has another 10-15 additional HP to the rear wheels with my new catback

I put the stock exhaust back on it. I'm glad I didn't cut it up. I already sold the Mach XLT. Starling Chevrolet in Kissimmee is doing 50.00 over invoice. My salesperson is Nelson Lopez. 407-933-8000. He is on this forum under BRKLYN.

Now just save up and buy a maggie!!!!
This summer is when ill make my final choice, ive already decided to let off any future mods as i had planned. I might just keep the car until 2011 or 2012 and buy a Z28.
I shouldve just bought a 1SS/RS, wouldve cost me the same thing

I guess I don't need to hear your exhaust anymore. Hopefully a bunch of us can all get together soon, at 5 Guys or something. Nelson mentioned this a while ago.
