CAMARO6 - View Single Post - Car and Driver Instrumented Test: 2016 Camaro V6 Manual

Way back when, even before reveal, I had it in my mind that if I liked the 6th gen and wanted one, I'd just get another V6. I liked my 5th gen, and I knew the 6th gen would be lighter and faster. I didn't "need" the V8. But I also had more money to spend, and I wanted the 2LT this time around with some options.

Then it dawned on me that a mostly loaded V6 would cost very near the same as a 1SS with a few options. When I found out the 1SS got the 8" driver's screen (REALLY wanted that), AND I could get supplier pricing...it was all over. Went with the SS.

But I would've had no regrets getting the V6 either if I didn't want to spend what I did. Great car.
