Number 3 · 02-13-2009, 10:10 AM

Just had 30 minutes in a Black 2SS RS and all I can say is HOLY &)(:/($@"/. Awesome car people. But my first thought getting out of the car was how nice Number 3 is.

All hail the 6.2 liter V8.

Most fortunate man I know,

So, please give up the goods. How do you compare the two?

Was the V8 a manual or auto?

rolnslo · 02-13-2009, 10:12 AM

What, no pictures or video this time?

So, which would you choose as a daily driver?

Scott@Bjorn3D · 02-13-2009, 10:12 AM

Stick or Auto?

What do you mean by this? Was the ride not as nice as the LT?

Lucky Bastard "), was it the manual or auto as others have asked?

PQ · 02-13-2009, 10:28 AM

Talk about stick & move.

Number 3 · 02-13-2009, 10:42 AM

Sorry should have included that it was an automatic.

Yes I got to open it up with and without traction control. Seat of the pants slower than a Corvette faster than G8 GXP.

Compared to Number 3, ride is firmer but not harsh. Quiet like Number 3 except for the exhaust when you open it up. V8 sounds great.

Would be a very easy carfpr daily driving and it has all the good things that made Number 3 such a great trip car.
