I like my v6, but..
So, I'm at a muffler shop today having my exhaust worked on. Brought in my own parts, then the mechanic comes inside with a question.
"Hey, did you know this is just a v6?" Well, yeah, I had noticed that actually. And yes, the parts I bought are for a v6, not the SS v8. FFS. This is my daily driver, looks amazing, drives anazing, and is a practical buy. Ive put 10,000 miles on in 4 months for work. So while I like the v8, people need to acknowledge that the v6 is a strong car in itself. /end rant |

You should have told that mechanic that the V6 has more hp per liter than the SS V8.

I think many here do in fact acknowledge that. But your "but" is telling...and yes, here we go again!

I would have responded back with "And it only took you how long to realize that?"

Figure the mods are starting to get tired of these threads so anyone feel free to fill this out before the lock.

Don't feel bad the reality is The mechanic probably drives a 82 ford fairmont .99% of people who ridicule a guy for having only a 323 hp v6 don't drive anything even close to the power styling or good looks of a newer camaro .

V8? Really just an unpopular option.
