Yes, the V8 will make more horsepower when you wring every last pony out of it than the V6. But we're not talking about 1600 hp drag cars here, we're talking about getting a 426 horsepower car for 31,000. And its quite possible to get the V6 for 24000 and add 122 horses to it for under 7000. - X P.S. - And well under 7000, for that matter.

I am going to put SS and RS badges all over my 1LT, just so I can piss off some of those V8 owners... I CAN'T WAIT ...

Or make your exterior a mix of LT and SS parts. Who was the one here who did that on his V8 because he didn't like the mail slot? Was that Hylton?

Yup, Hylton. Though I think upgrading a V6 facia to an SS may be less acceptable... imho anyway.

I'd be surprised if that mail slot remains for the entire SS production of 5th gens. I could have thrown a V6 front on my car but I would have been disappointed with losing the SS front spoiler.

Thanks. I'm looking forward to seeing more custom stuff. Let's see is some after market company makes a front fascia from the latest Bumblebee.

Mostly because if that fascia ends up being the Z28 fascia, I don't want people thinking I'm trying to make my V6 look like a Z28. - X

Call me nuts but I'd even consider slapping the V6 fascia to the SS if I had one. For the same reason I don't prefer stripes. I like a clean, solid, even slightly understated look.
