I was lucky when I found my SS loaded with everything (but GFX) and decided to use my divorce settlement on her.

Even for the LT though, I would have done whatever I could to get it and pay for her....
I had no trouble knowing I wanted this car and being determined to get it

I'm lucky to have found (and been able to afford) my loaded SS but, I would still have an awesome car even if I'd gotten the LT. I think you should go for what you want if you can afford it - if there are options you can live without then consider nixing them to save a little.

[QUOTE=Rob_63;2016629].... I couldn't justify spending 8 - 10K more for the SS (although they are a SWEET car).

The V-6 has plenty of nuts for me and not having the higher insurance and the added expense of premium fuel is more cost efficient.

Now I will say I wish I would have at least gotten the lt or 2lt package, my wifes leather interior, connectivity package, remote starter, heated seats, etc... sure would be great in the Camaro. QUOTE]

Imo, just test drive both, and see which you like =p Obviously I think there are lots of Biased opinions. SS owners would recommend SS, lol... I own 1LT, but that doesn't mean I'd recommend you the V6 instead. If I had the cash, I would get SS i think lol.

But few things to keep in mind, V8 is more gas money, more insurance. In return you get an SS! Power, and a true Muscle Car

Really depends what you are going for. Goodluck =D

The ss for me every 6 months would be little over 500 bucks. I have been working with a dealer for a base ss and a lt with the manual and ba sound system. I def have to have the ba sound system . So I won't have to mess with it in that area
