I pay the $1200 premium & get automatic everytime. I'm lazy & don't have time to switch gears & deal with clutches n crap... I could use my energy & time on other things while driving, like texting.

It's sort of like growing up right, and it's like just starting to hit on chicks. Let's say you get chicks rejecting you calling you names right, other people to comfort you might say, "Oh well, she's not worth it anyway." Or, "Just be yourself." Etc. They usually will not tell you any TRUTHS such as, "Well, dude, if you lost some weight, wore some better clothes, got some confident and stop approaching chicks like a dork, you would have a better chance."

So with that being said I just want to know from you guys......with 100% HONESTY....does a guy driving a V6 Camaro really make him seem like a punk, or a bytch, etc.? And if I'm a GUY, I should be driving a V8 Camaro?

Just be honest, I just want to know the truth.

I'm calling TROLL!!! No man is this much of a wuss.

"A few girls in the office didn't like my dress... but most did. I like it, but Sally said I looked like a ho. Do you think I look like a hooker? I like this dress. I don't want to get another dress. But I want Cindy to like it... but she make choking sounds when I walk by her desk. Oh please help me help others like my dress."

I have a V6 Camaro, and what I have noticed is most of the people who have shitty things to say drive some front-wheel drive econo-shitbox (e.g., Hyundai, Geo, etc.). The V8 owners I have interacted with are mostly very respectful and humble. So I think talk like that comes from jealousy because they drive a big piece of crap, dreaming of a V8 muscle/pony car.

Wow I've been thinking about it all day now, I think I have something like sadness diarrhea of the brain. I mean this is really bad... went to take a dump and a tampon fell out of my ass! I know! That's how emo I am over this whole thing. I am thinking about selling my car and joining the Circus, but then come to find out no more elephants in the Circus!? I'm like WTF???

So I found this forum and thought I could find some other 6'ers to come over to my house and give me a big group hug... cause that's what I am really needing right now. Just some good wubbers from the men folk.

Not even getting any love from my GF right now... Every morning she wakes up and laughs hysterically for 20 minutes about my 6. Then of course her boyfriend (who has an 8 ) chimes in with all his BS, I swear I am going to kill that guy.

Oh sorry, went OT... So anyway, do you guys have some snappy come-backs for that old lady, my GF and her BF? I really need something that will make them go "WTF?".

Duderino, the winner and still undefeated heavyweight champion of the WORLD!!

He it is plain and simple. Man up, and stop buying stuff for other people to judge you. You got what you wanted so own it. Nothing wrong with a V6 car. But, you are going to hear the V6 comments from car guys... It's just how it is.

Saw two 6's blow by me today (at different intervals) while I was cruising on I-10 and I-15, and they looked and sounded great. Both had custom exhausts. Sounded a heck of a lot better than some of the modded 370z's I often see roll by during my commute. I totally dig the Camaro V6. Yeah, an 8 is an 8 and will always be on another level... but no hate at all from this one on 6's.

Dude, don't be disappointed in what you've got. Its a dream car to many. Make your car yours and forget about what others think about it.
