Test drove the T4 over a month ago - loved it. Tested the 6 and the 8 yesterday.

I wanted to like the 6 - 335 HP, almost 300 ft-lbs torque. Amazing numbers.

The 6 was really nice - lots of power in city driving. Good on the highway but didn't have that "punch" I was looking for - but a fast car!

Decided to try the 8 - because although the 6 was 95% there that highway thing was missing.

Took the 8 for a spin - within a minute I was smitten. The feel, the handling, the power was intoxicating and I didn't even begin to approach WOT.

It's was a weird feeling because I didn't want to like the 8 - thirsty, insurance, heaviest of the Camaros. However when I do get it and realistically will get a used one - it will be the 2SS. Black.

I think they are all exceptional 4, 6 or 8.
