I loved driving my V6 but............
but now I know what love really is, I LOVE driving my new SS! I'm excited to get up in the mornings again for my ride to work.
My daily driver has been benched since getting the SS, sorry Elantra And please people don't make the a V6 bashing thread, that's not what this thread is about! That's all, carry on |

If you didn't want the thread to be about bashing the V6 you should of just said that you love driving your SS and left your old V6 out of it. When it starts remember, you opened the door.
Glad you enjoy your new toy. Who wouldn't love more power in a better sounding package. |

When anyone gives me shit about a V6, I just ask them what engine they have in their Camaro, and usually that ends that conversation.

I just taunt the V8 guys with the fact that they may pass me on the road, but I will pass them while they are getting gas, since I am getting over 30 mpg in my V6.

How come they can't make a V-8 that drops to 4 cylinders get the mileage of a V-6. It would seem to me that they could be doing so much more with that technology. |

Didn't figure it would take long..........Never ever , ever fails. You mention v6 and v8 in the same thread around here and the defense mechanism's are automatically deployed. Laughable really.........

I Love my v6.I went that route as I wanted the convertible only alloted
x amount of dollars for the camaro.With gas approaching $5. a gallon here for regular(which the v6 uses) I am happy with my choice.The extra power of the v8 would be nice, but honestly where I live,it's impossible to use the power of the v8 to it's fullest potential unless you go to the track. The main thing is, choose your car with the options you want and enjoy your ride.The camaros are nice no matter what model. OP-congrats on your new ride...ENJOY!!!!! |
