Saw a few threads about guys going from V6 to V8. Now that it might go downhill fast has me more interested.

I'll say my piece... it is $7000 more for an equally equipped SS over an LT... For that $7000 you get 114 horsepower and 147 foot-lbs, Brembo brakes, better rear end gear and a tigher suspension... you be the judge why people do it. You could never boost a V6 up to those numbers including brakes, gears and suspension for $7000... NEVER. |

Had my v6 for 7 mths, had her customized and beautiful. Showed her in car shows and she won top 10 in her firsy show!! Traded her in for my 1ss/rs this past Friday. Hated losing most of my mods but the ss is awesome and worth it

Shouldn't go down hill. I see it as a natural progression for those who got the V6 early on like me. It suited me then and still does.
I tend to lose interest in a vehicle after 4-5 years ( i bought in may of 09) So, it doesn't surprise me at all that people are moving on and may do so myself although my dream car is a Z06 and pursuing that goal.
