I'm happy with my 14-sec hero run; if I wanted a lot of power, yeah, I'd have gotten an SS. But I couldn't justify one knowing how much I'd drive it; I've put 80k on mine in 2.5 years
I was really kidding with the "real power" part, I'm actually pretty impressed with the 300+ HP the LLT makes on it's own. I'm neither impressed by nor scared of my email tune. Though I wish I could make the time to install my wide-band AFR gauge, so I can get a real number (after all, I am an engineer). The transmission tune has certainly added to the fun factor though - catching gear while making taking a curve kicks the rear end out just enough to make my wife scream.

I'll have two years of ownership come February, and likely about 22K miles on the odometer on my DD. Love my short commute - and my beater '94 P/U when the weather gets nasty...
