Btw there is a couple reasons why I didn't choose a vette.
1) I couldn't afford it (at least I have the ball to admit it)
2) I have a wife and a couple kids. I'd like to be able to bring them with me sometimes. Vette I can't
3) I didn't buy the Camaro to have the fastest car. But I dud buy a v8 because it's like buying a full size truck with a v6....I just can't do it.
4) and if I did want to buy a vette, I wouldn't settle for a regular vette, I'd have to get at least a z06....see reason #1
yes, go ahead and explain away why you settled lol. who cares?

I wouldn't be bragging about being able to beat a car that is using 41 year old technology with a brand new 2011 car. And I'd sure as heck drive a '69 SS before I drove a new V6 Camaro. Those cars are legends man.

Different strokes for diference folks. Some get the V6 Camaro as a dd or starbucks mobile because they have other muscle cars in the garage. Most are just faddish folks....saw the Camaro in the Transformers movies and they wanna be cool. Some just care about the looks of the car so the V6 fits the bill. Some wants the SS but can't afford it and are honest about why. THEN, there are those who feel they always have to justify why they bought the V6. Those are the annoying ones. Let's face it, LS or SS, it looks the part, just know what you have and be happy with it. If you are trying to fake the funk, that will make you over-sensitive and think you are always being attacked any time someone asks if you have a V6 or V8.. Just Be Happy.

The subject has been beat to death!

If you go through life caring what others think....it is going to be a long road.

It has always been that way for V6 owners. I don't think it will ever end.

Who cares! You own a Camaro and you are happy!
So pfffftt to the naysayers!

JUST KIDDING! Grats on having an awesome car bud! Just think, at least its NOT a mustang or kia rio!
Exactly I was 18 when i bought my car.It was my first new car so I mean getting to own one of the baddest cars out there is a blessing!I could always be driving a kia rio!So those v6 guys that love to wine need to stop it if it really bothers you go sell you v6 and buy yourself the v8 or suck it up.

I'm sorry. I just wanted to mess around guys. Don't be mad at me. Sometimes I wish I would have bought a 6 because my v8 drinks gas like there is no tomorrow.
