No time to read the threads

But a lot goes into satisfaction with any vehicle. There are small, niggling things about my 2010 that irk me. But overall? I Love my CAMARO! If Pontiac came back and rocked me with a kickass Firebird, I'd bail. But I'm a GM girl, and love my 'maro. This is the badass steel right now.

I am completely happy with my V6. 312 horsepower stock is more than enough for most people. I added an Injen CAI and Flowmaster exhaust not because I wanted a V8 but because I wanted to make my car unique. I will admit that if I could have afforded a V8 I probably would have gotten it. But for what I use it for she does just fine. I love my SIX BNGR

I love my V6. This car is awesome, and I love driving it. As it's my daily driver, it's exactly what I was looking for in performance and comfort...

Could not love my V6 more. Someone on here mentioned "perma-grin". Love that term now. I definately have that diagnosis. Someone else also said they'd get in trouble with a V8. I'm with you. V8's are made for race tracks & garage warmers for most. For daily driving V6 is amazing! Every one looks. More than enough get-up-N-go. Too many want to race (on the street). If someone gave me a V8 I might keep it a while, but likely would sell it & use some of the money to play with my V6. Believe it or not!

I love the V6. I especially loved it this winter through the snow w/Blizzaks.

I will say, though, that for the spring and summer, I find my mind drifting off to 100 more horse or so. My other car is a convertible '68 Camaro with a slightly modded 327 and a 4-speed. So I guess I'm saying I miss the torque down low!

Then I get rational and remember why I bought the LT:

-Under 6 seconds zero to sixty
-Low to mid 14's in the quarter
-Great mileage
-Driveable year 'round
-Kid will be driving in a couple years

I have an ABM 2 LT and it is perfect as a daily driver. I didn't want to spend ALL my money on gas and this car has plenty of get up and go. Who could complain about 304 horses?

Love my V6. Horsepower and great gas mileage, who could ask for more.However I am planing to install aftermarket exhaust and a cold air intake system. Does anybody have suggestions on which ones sound best and add the most horsepower?

Lovin the 6 as well. Down the road I'll get the V8. But for my daily use now I'm loving the 6. It's all you could ask for in a car.

I owned a 75 Trans Am and a 93 z28. My LS would absolutely kick their butts. Oh, and there was a '68 Hurst/Olds...but, well...that's a different story...

But I drive the LS every day and if I had it to do all over again, I'd buy exactly the same car.
