Yep, except I'd have to go with the SRT8 Challenger (my wife has an SRT8 Charger).

And I could have gotten a V6 last year since I could not have reasonably afforded a V8 at the time. I figured it was better to wait a bit and get exactly what I wanted. Funny thing, I got a 2SS with literally every option plus the head up display for less than some people paid for a 2010 1SS.

Again, I could care less what people do with their money, but I'd rather wait until I can get exactly what I want rather than settle for something else.

The V6 is just soooooo far more inferior and everyone knows it. Just stop trying to justify it as a REAL engine. It makes your car go....... very slowly

This statement makes you sound either uneducated or on a different planet.

Hahah. I was gonna say... Is this guy cruising for a bruising? Thank you I love non-V6 haters. I personally think people that are all NOTHING IS BETTER THAN A V8 AND IF ITS NOT A V8 ITS A PRIUS are not car enthusiasts, they are car snobs and are not worthy of their awesome machines. People should be happy for everyone else and glad that they got what THEY WANTED regardless of reason. I wanted a v6. One day I want a v8 for a weekend car. But I love mine and thats that.

Ok, I didn't bother reading the thread because it's all the same haha...

SO, here is the ultimate end-all of "v6 vs v8" question.

V6 owners, would you buy a v8 if you paid the same for insurance and gas?

Explain your answer.

No. I tell myself that I won't get the car I really want (V8 Camaro) until I'm completely finished with school. It'll be my reward for fulfilling the goal that I've had since I can remember. As of now, I'll be finished with school spring 2013!!!
