we say something like this

you car is nice, and you shouldn't care what people think. they are probably just jealous. ..... every week the same thing.
And this is true it does get old like I said before everybody has there own reasons for getting the car they got.

Exactly Mike, I mean it's kinda like they regret getting a V6. It's all in the past, if you wanted the power you should have gotten the V8 but that isn't to say the V6 isn't remarkable. You made the choice, you should have known most people passing by won't show respect for a V6 Camaro. It's all in the past, be happy with what you have because you know what? Not every car is as nice as the Camaro. So get over the fact that you bought a V6 and be happy you have a Camaro or trade up if you are that insecure about your purchase.

All respect to everyone on this forum but choices have been made and you got the V6 if your not happy with your choice then you have no one to blame but yourself. There is a stigma that goes along with V6 Pony cars and you have to be able to deal with it, it's the same with us with the L99 being bashed for getting an automatic.

Why is kind of stupid because it has a diffrent motor? Appearence wise it doesnt have any diffrences but now if someone does a couple of cosmetic mods on there 2lt and make it look unique and nice is it not fair to say that a 2lt can look better then an SS?
=========
we never bought the v6 to keep up with the v8, or simply i would of bought the v8!

Im more than happy with my LLT and wouldnt wanna trade / sell/ or look down on it!

F what other think or say, end of the day.. its one sexy muscle car.

I think you misunderstood what i ment by "keep up with the v8" I didnt mean litterly keep up with a v8 in a race.What I ment was that it takes more $ to keep up with a v8 maintainance wise
