I'm sure that's what a lot of Porsche 911 and Ferrari guys say too. "You have no idea what you're missing". lol!
I'm still trying to figure out the "V8" guys. The reason why a lot of us have the V6 or I4 is because they are LESS EXPENSIVE overall than the V8. Yes, they are cheaper, option for option, and get better MPG. Uh oh, I can already hear the mythical 30+mpg V8 guys rattling their sabres now. lol!
Now, before you write a paragraph on how you can option up the V6 past the cost of a needle in the haystack invoice only never going to find one on the lot 1SS, this was not the case with me. The base 1SS V8 cars were at least $10k to $12k more than the V6.
So, I chose the V6 because it fit within my budget at the time. Since I like my car and don't plan on selling it anytime soon, I plan to do a few mods when time and budget allows. However, right now being stock, I have no regrets about performance. I have no problem keeping up with traffic and the occasional foot stomp on the accelerator to get past slower vehicles.
