I find the title of this thread offensive. Saying the V6 isn't a real Camaro is weak.

you should ask the vette guys did you get a base corvette or a real (ZR1) vette?

Ok, I will keep playing.
just to stir the pot some more... Since we are all Camaro brothers...remember this, when some idiot asks if you have a real Camaro or a V6, ask them to stand in front of your Camaro while you launch it at 5k RPM. If they refuse, then they have their answer. to our V6 brothers, be happy with your V6 and stop reading the SS threads and stop justifying to yourselves and everyone why you settled for a V6 yada yada yada to the V8 brotherhood....well, what can I say...no justification necessary I doubt of the possibility that I will ever say "I should have gotten a V6" Last edited by ffrcobra_65; 07-09-2009 at 01:38 PM. |

It could just be that people don't have a lot of options for making small talk about the car. There's "what kind did you get," "how's it feel," and "how much ya pay for that."

http://www.kbb.com/KBB/UsedCars/Spec...&Mileage=50000 So according to that info yes they had 310 hp w/ a 2.73 geared rear end. I know you have options, I wasn't born yesterday, it was the day before, so I am just using this option package as a comparison. So using your weight formula it would only have 36 more hp and the 2010 Camaro with the traction control and no wheel spin from take off and the lower rear gears, I would say yes the 2010 w/ 3.6L V6 could hang with a stock 2002 Z28. We could back and forth all day long but it won't change some peoples minds and I'm not going to try. It looks to me that in some peoples book unless you have the biggest and baddest engine available for that year model you don't have a real Camaro or what ever car you might be talking about. So I guess I will drive my little V6 Camaro around in shame and try to stay out of your way. If I wanted a 2ss I would have gotten one, money was not an issue. I don't plan on driving this car forever. It will be given to my son when he turns 16 and what a first car it will be for him. When that day comes you had better get out of my way then because I will be getting the "REAL" Chevrolet sports car, thats right I will be getting a Vette, but unless I get the biggest and baddest available at that time it will just be a poser wont it. This is my last post to this thread, so I won't reply to anything you post.

2LT/RS that has all the goodies. I’m extremely happy with my 2LT I got the looks of the SS, the power of an old school V8 and the gas savings of a 4 Cylinder all raped up with a Chevy bowtie.

Now my old LT1 (1995 Automatic 3.23) only ran 14.1 @ 97mph on a 2.1 60ft (2000+DA), probably still going to be a little quicker than the 2010 V6 but I haven't seen enough results from the strip to make that call yet. You have little man syndrome...BIG TIME (irony at its finest)... I never said anything negative about your car. I think you are misinformed about the 4th gen like most first time Camaro owners seem to be. FWIW buying a vette is no big deal (not sure why that came up)... It's not like I'm poor and own a 4th gen because I couldn't go buy a different car. Deflate the ego and take the information presented... no one here is pissing in your cereal. If you really want to educate yourself all you need to do is look a little further than the mainstream magazines... |
