NOT A MONEY ISSUE, BUT V6 6TH GEN, OR 15 2SS

I can afford either or, but save alot of money on a 15 2ss, 16 1ss, or purchase 6th gen v6 1lt Rs ? I never owned a v8 so either way I'd be happy. And for those of you with the v6 6th gen how much a difference from your v6 5th Gen is it?

You have to decide what's more important. An updated look with a nicer interior or a v8? Especially since they are so heavily discounted. I'm partial to the v8 so I'd go with the 15 2SS over a 6th gen v6. Just my opinion.

I bought a used 15 2ss rs and I really like it, however I ordered a new 16 1ss because of the LT1 and lighter weight of the new Camaro. Interior is ok on the 16, but I'm gonna love the A8 as I plan on doing a bunch of drag racing this year.

Whichever is the V8. If they are both the V8, then the 6th gen.

16 1ss would be the only choice for me. I don't care for tech and leather and the lighter platform with the 8 speed auto would be my choice.

Just thinking about a nice H/C/I/E 1ss, would be a great drag strip monster.

Bee, I've followed you since our days on the Camaro5 LFX and LLT subforums. I debated this issue myself. All my buddies that got the 2015s when they had a fire sale on them regretted not getting the 2016 SS once they saw and drove mine. Get the 2016 bro. I would have have had major regrets if I didn't. Nothing wrong with a 2015. The 2016s are just so much better in every way.

GO with the 2016, and the engine of your choice, 8 speed auto seems nice.
