OK, well you know what. It is 11 pm and I am tired. Can't a guy make a mistake? Either or I wasn't trying to start a debate about a 10 second V6. I was simply trying to make a point to V8 guys not to bash on V6ers

I got the V6 because of price. Couldn't have a $500-$600 a month car payment.

I guess I don't consider my 'non' ss to be basic. It has everything I wanted (and more actually).

i bought the v6 (RS) cus i don't need the v8 for my daily use. Think it would be great to keep the v6 for many years to come.

I had a 2LT/RS before my 1SS now. I regretted getting the leather, and I wanted more power and modding options. Hence my 1SS now. I need cloth seats in FL! I could care less about gas mileage. I hate the v6 bashing that happens...I have a few friends with the v6. It's a great looking car (way better than a Rustang) and I wave at every Camaro I drive by. It's very seldom that I don't get a wave or a headlight flash back. There's a reason for everyones purchase, and I'm not going to judge it. A camaro is a camaro.

No problem man. If you do run into it again please post something up on the Dragstrip thread. A bunch of us are interested.

I bought my car for the color and affordability. When I found out that I could not order Synergy Green after feb. I decided to just get the car. I could not afford the V8 payment so I got a V6 LS. As I have posted before, it may not have much but its mine and I love her. I have gotten so many complements on the color. Only one person asked if it had a V8, I laughed and said No. I think what most people dont get is how much fun this car is. No matter V6 or V8, would you rather have a V6 turbo charged Hyundai Sonata or a new Ford Mustang? No becuase most people buy a car for looks, affordability then performance. If someone said you should just save your money and purchase a V8. Tell those people to save thier money and buy a real performance car called the WRX STI. See its looks isnt it... (laugh)
