Just upgraded to V8!

So i have to gloat for a sec... I just sold my 2011 V6 Camaro, and an hour later bought a 2013 2SS. Best. Decision. Ever. (not including the financial prospective)

The add ons i got are the Hurst short throw shifter and the overpriced exhaust package with the 4 tips coming out. (the add on was 900 bucks and i know i could've gotten a better aftermarket one for less, but i liked the 4 tips coming out so i went for it)

Anyways, i feel like i kind of did out all the popular upgrades for the v6, (mufflers, headers, long tube CAI, catch can, IM insulator, tune, and all that Jazz) so now it's time to start dumping money into this guy...

E.T. It is the best thing that has ever happened to me.... It's ridiculous how much better the V8 is than the V6. I Thought i was happy with my new sports car a year ago. i was wrong.

Just be careful...once the mods begin, it's hard to stop!
