I'm really surprised this thread doesn't have at least 15 pages by now?!

I really hate the V8's when they are at stop lights, people are always wanting to race them and then there always winning... for once I just wish a V6 would...

Best regards,

Kayla L.

It's like a Dr. Seuss book. I use overkill on my way to work, I use it on the way to shop. I use it on the way to fights. I even use it at the lights. I will not use it at the stops. I will not use it around the cops. I do not like The V6 car, it will not get me very far. It will not last, it is not fast. The little motor does not roar, overkill is what I yearn for.

This needs to be a meme with a V8 Camaro being driven by Dr. Seuss.

Why didn't I get a V6, you say? It gets better gas mileage? Well I just like the the power the engine makes from the lower RPMs and love the sound of the V8. Sure, the extra ~4 MPG would be great and all but who cares.

Yea, I think that a Camaro is a Camaro even if it ever gets an electric engine instead of gas. However, I feel the need to justify my purchase to strangers such as yourself (people reading this forum).
Sooo... why didn't you get a V6 too?

sometimes I pass a big rig going up a steep incline on a two lane and it is like in a blink of an eye, then I feel guilty because I know some Camaro owners will never experience this sensation and it makes me sad. Then I smoke a v6 stang at the next straight and all is good

Overkilled as well today myself... who'da thunk that overkill could be so much fun...

An SUV tried to stay on my ass today on I15 like a fken dick... the idiot had to slam on his brakes a few time because he just didn't know what Brembo's could do I guess... had to use that 'overkill' on his ass. Next thing you know, he's gone! Poof... overkill at its finest... I think he disintegrated...

Does yours even hit 120? I hate when people look at my speedometer and ask why it doesn't say 200
