A bit much for me, but still a very nice looking car. Gotta love the twin turbo setup.

Wow. How many miles are on that!? Have you had to have it worked on at all or anything go wrong!? Nice car!

35,000 miles and not a single issue!! Normal maintenance and that's it. And yes, at night, you think you are in a space shuttle, crazy, even to me but so neat! A really fast car and you can drive it anywhere. It's my daily driver!

Just over 30k on my 12 and still love it.

Also, nice mods! I want to start modding mine, but I don't want to ruin my warranty because I have had it in the shop multiple times for a number of things so far unfortunately. How well does the car handle all the performance upgrades?

Do you drive a manual or auto? Mine is a manual and I am curious if I should upgrade my transmission? Do you think the V6 trannys are good enough? Or maybe it is my clutch that needs upgraded. I can barely shift at high RPMs without really throwing it in hard. The clutch pedal seems to go weightless at times as well.

What would you recommend for me to upgrade first? CAI is probably the easiest to start with. Next, maybe a throttle control and new exhaust? I want it to pull faster if I can!

There are currently no transmission upgrades for our Aisin-Warner AY6 manual transmission aside from the clutch/flywheel and shifter upgrades, but I am trying to get something brewing regarding conversions for those of us who are pursuing builds of over 500 HP.

Oh, and I love my v6. Wholeheartedly.

I love my car, learned alot of things and grateful to have it as my first car. I test drove a 2016 2ss Camaro with NPP and man, It really left me feeling like something was missing after I got in my car. I just turned 18 so a v8 is not necessary right now, or so I tell myself lol but yea Ive had my car for more than 2 years and have been satisfied for the most part. Their is somethimes I wish I had 2 more cylinders under the hood. Soon though, I will be in a 6th gen SS

I'd love to twin turbo my 6. My only concern is blowing my engine. Would've done nitrous but...same story...don't want to blow my engine or risk it....

Throttle response increase would be just fine...

I've had mine for just 6 days, 2014 LS. I have been grinning ever since. I'm even happy driving TO work lol. Very fun car, fast, and best yet it's affordable. I'm going to mod it a bit, but not quite like that green monster posted above.

jimbow · 04-01-2016, 01:10 PM

Lets see, my 2012 2ls gets me where I want to go and its not an econobox
Cost about the same as an econobox but is much cooler
Can rip and fing tear around the road course and stay with everyone but prepared cars in the corners!
Wife can drive it
Wife loves to drive it

Yea, I'm satisfied

LOVE my v6 1LT. I still smoke everyone off the light and I LOVE when people give me the thumbs up as I blow them away! White was not my first choice, but she was there at the right time, and for the right price! I'm loving the add-ons I get to choose from and totally make her my own! Stripes, exhaust, dash mods, lighting, etc...

Looks just like mine did when I got her last year! doing similar mods as the green, just not as much either!

Unfortunately the stock rims were't the rs 20"s they were only the 19" "premiums" I still have them but they were pretty beat up by the previous owner

I wanted a 3.6 when I went Camaro hunting, even after driving my son's SS. I have never regretted buying a V6. And since it gets the same gas mileage as the Grand Prix GT I was driving, with a hell of a lot more power, I never will
