I own an SS and drove a loaner RS for about a week not too long ago. You’re fooling yourself if you think they are in any way comparable. One is a sports car, the other is a sporty car. 5.1 0-60 isn’t much nowadays. Under hard acceleration the V6 is clearly struggling. To me it was saying ‘I’m trying, I’m trying’. Under hard acceleration the V8 is in its element and is saying ‘let’s go!’ The torque is where you really see the difference. The V8 has almost double the torque. Yeah the V6 is a bit lighter, but not enough to make up for that. I’m not trying to bash your car, but get real. The V6 doesn’t even belong in a conversation including the V8. If you want a sports car buy one, don’t buy a sporty car then try to pass it off as a sports car because it isn’t. They make Khias that will outrun it.
