I got you.. Well, my recommendation is this.. don't test drive it. Because if power is something that you offer, you may start to not like your V6.

You will most likely be underwater with a trade in and you'll have to find the best deal on an SS to make up for it.

I went through it this past year.. had an EB Mustang and wanted a 2016 5.0 PP really bad (Sorry came from a Mustang family) after test driving it. Being 4-5k upside down.. I was gonna wait until my EB lease was up to upgrade.. But.. I got lucky to have someone take over my lease so I'm free to shop.

Went to Chevy to test out the new SS and was effin blown by the sheer power of the car! Test drove a 2SS auto and felt fast too but the M6 1SS I drove just felt like a freight train after every shift.

With standard 455HP/455lb/trq, 275 Good year run flat staggered tires, 8"inch Mylink screen, Brembos on all 4, 3 radiators, 3.73 gears oil/tranny/differential coolers, the lighter aluminum chassis, the Tremec TR6060 and last but not least, the badass LT1.. the SS is worth every single damn penny!

Moral of the story, if you can't afford the SS (many variables) I wouldn't test drive it! Well, that's me and yes, I hated my EB Mustang after I test drove a 5.0

V6 Camaro is a great car, always remember that. The SS honestly has way too much power for the streets and for most of us.. Good luck to you man, do what makes you smile in the smartest, financial way.
