Anybody with a V6 wish they got the V8?
At the time I ordered (from pictures, statistics, and no test drive) I guessed that the 304hp LT would be fine for me but now I'm wondering if I should have gone for the SS after all. The LT is a such good car it leaves me wanting more. On the plus side if I place another order I still get to drive a Camaro while I wait. Has anybody else had this happen?

Not at all. The V6 is plenty of car for me. I am mighty happy with my choice.

If you own a V-6 and have not driven a 2SS, then don't. Or if you do, make sure you drive Irqp's of ScottBjorn's.

Of course. I would have loved to have gotten the V8, but I couldn't justify it. I drive 105 miles a day in stop and go traffic and will put over 25k miles on it a year. Just didn't see the point in getting the V8 and not being able to use it.
I'll sure miss it on those weekends when I could be out running it, though. |

nope
I'm a happy camper.
Its got the looks, the status, the driveability, etc, etc, etc. I want and power I need. I guess my question is what is it that the OP is missing? And how ofter do you want or how often do you need the thing that is missing?

I ordered the v8 but the v6 runs on regular gas, puts out 304 hp, gets 29mpg, and in time will have an abundance of aftermarket performance parts available. Clearly a winner in anybody's book.

If I had bought this car as a daily driver, I would have probably went with the V-6. I bought this car as my dream car and only use it leisurely, so the 2SS was best for me.
