You made the best decision... Congrats

Congrats - I hope you have as much(or more) trouble free fun in the V8.

I can't afford the gas for a V8, it's about $5.50/ gal here for premium. This car is my daily driver.

OMG you have a V6 what a bummer that's too bad. Oh I have one too, what a bummer. But I have a 4200 sq ft house with 4 other cars so I guess I can sleep every night even though I have a V6. The shame of it all............

Oh ya and congrats on moving up 2 cylinders. Now what's my favorite color again?

Whatever, Jack! You don't have to lie to kick it. You know we're all poor or we'd be rolling in SS's!

I hope I will still get the same permagrin that my old friend used to give me. Let the mods begin again.....

Good luck and congratulations. IMO you did it right. That is, spent your money as you see fit...You got good use and enjoyment out of your first car, (nothing lasts forever)...now something new! Excellent!

All depends on what "poor" means. SS or RS they are all Camaro's to me, like the Z-28's or Iroc's I have owned. Just in here it's blatant what is thought of the V6. It has more power than all those older cars I've had and it suits me fine. If this is what someone likes and enjoys why make such a big deal out of it or belittle everyone that owns one?
Anyway I'm done with my soapbox carry on..........
