45th anniversary SS any better than the 1SS or 2SS?

I was wondering if the 45th anniversary edition SS was any more powerful than a regular SS? I have a 2011 Synergy Green, SS and didn't know if swapping rides would be any more than a waste of money. Would an anniversary edition be anymore valuable than having the limited synergy green color later in years? Thoughts, opinions? Thanks.

nope, same engine. Just pretty paint and a couple of emblems.

I think value will depend on how many 45ths are made. HTH

WOW! That picture of your car is amazing! I assume a little retouching was done to make it shine like that?

Yes! A little touched up. LOL Here is the actual picture. The only thing done to this one is Mother's Wax and a full days work.

45ths are faster because of the stripes' pattern.

Negative. Same engine. Think the color combo makes it heavier.
