yeah it has nothing to do with the car, it was more of a humorous joke for everyone but i see its went the other direction kind of lol

[Wakemaker89]

Gotta say I loved the corvette and dare I say it the mustang best in that video. I do love me a good Italian raspy growl but they got nothing on some good ol' american V8 rumble. That being said the sounds coming out of the new V6's is pretty incredible considering they are putting out 300+ HP and the original 69 V8 camaros had less than that! gotta respect that!

Nah, I had a V8 (Mk VIII) and love my V6 much more.

Also love not having to worry about whether or not I can afford to fill up the tank. xD

You know how guys are... "yeah it's a 6.2 man!" A REAL MUSCLE CAR
it's just bragging rights...

You said it: BRAGGING. Not 'all' of us are into that. Plus, my smile NEVER goes away...I LOVE MY CAR! Its the PEOPLE that think it is fun to BELITTLE other people to make THEMSELVES feel better who make my smile go away.

How this thread started: Hey V6 guys, aren't you mad because you have 2 less cylinders?
Then: But really, it sucks for you *puffs on cigar* ha ha ha
To conclude: Uh yeah, no disrespect intended.
Thread Prediction:........ CLOSED. lol.
I'm just glad i get to leave my sig here before it is closed!

Edit: Oh man! i just read all the OP's post!!! hahahaha! he was trying to rile up the V6 guys! The story gets better! Duh nuh nuh nuh!!!!

Nope...I love my 6. Yeah the SS is very attractive for that low end torque, and a part of me wants it. However, the 6 is better on gas, cheaper on insurance, cheaper on tires, better in bad weather (especially snow), and less tickets. Overall I'm very happy with the 6. I'm not street racing and I don't go to the drag track. I have fun a little with some quick accelerations now and then, and just cruise and enjoy looking at it when I walk up to it every time.

It's these kind of things that are just not true. It could be said that the only place you get to claim 6.2 is your car engine, so that's why you guys bought the SS...but it's not supposed to be a bashing thread.

Really truly it is a dumb question. We all love our cars...we wouldn't read forums if we didn't. Not sure how active the Toyota Sienna (or other run of the mill car) forums are...but I would guess they don't love their cars as much as ANY Camaro owner.

Oh, I dunno, that Audio R8 in that video sounding pretty damn amazing.

I love my v6 camaro no regrets getting it. i am happy since it's my daily driver to work and to pick up my kids from school. and if i want to hear a v8 i will just open my garage door and take out my v8 camaro.

[Shuffler]

Usually they ask if it is a V8 because it runs so good. People are shocked that the V6s run so well.

[DAVID12691]

Not really. In a perfect world yes I would have got the V8 but for being only 20 it fits my life right now. Its good on gas, has good power, and has the looks to match. As many have said there will always be something bigger, faster, louder, but its what works for you and your life and the V6 fits at the moment.

I will upgrade to a V8 at some point but not until I can keep up with it, besides looking at what my friends drive (dodge neon, 99 mustang gt, honda cvics, and the like) I feel very blessed to have what I have. Also 312 hp out of the box is alot, maybe not by todays standards, but rewind the clocks 10-15 years and it was a lot more impressive.

Hell, these V6's make more HP than my friends GT I mentioned above, over 40 more in fact.

I love my high tech v6 engine,271ci. v6 w/312 hp...the v8 is 376 ci. w/400hp..thats pathetic! FORD has a 5.0 302ci. engine w/418hp...now thats impressive. Chevy needs to go back to drawing board I think, their big SS is getting smoked by a little 5.0. I think I'll stick with my v6 thank you.
