You are also accustom to the ride. Another thing you can add to it are the roads. The roads here in Florida are much smoother than those of up north. To get a good feel of the ride, find yourself an old brick road and see how that feels.

The ride on my Sedan is even more harsh than the Camaro. It has the Zeta2 chassis, and feels like my ZL1 in track mode. I do kind of like that feel though...

It was warm today and I notice more than anything I believe the frt suspension bottoms out ALOT. This really makes the car feel nasty. The rear isn't too bad. The roads here in PA are a disaster, probably the worst in the country.

I see a V/6 owner complaining about the performance of a V/6. I also see relevant suggestions (by V/8 owners) as to what the problem may be. Besides, any of the V/8 variants is going to exhibit better performance. Sometimes the truth hurts

No your wrong, we are too stupid to understand that we need to sell our v8s so we can buy 6’s. Sure they have only a few ponies less than the ls1 4th gen cars. I have no doubt they are quick for what they are and I have nothing against v6 camaros or there owners. However, if I wanted a V6 I would have got a V6. I don’t regret the SS nor do I have any desire at all to trade it. I paid extra for what I wanted, again I have 0 regrets and NO. I’m not jealous of, or threatened by your V6. Sorry.

Aqua Blue SS/RS - Above is what I was referring to.
BTW I'm one of the stupid ones that bought a '10 2SS/RS also.

I knew what you drive based on your avatar an also what you were referring too. When I said you were wrong that was 100% sarcasm toward the op. Sorry it didn’t quite carry through in the post. Nice V8 ‘maro you’ve got there!

I aired down the tires to 34 hot frt 32hot rear, much better ride like this. These Goodyear Sports are very stiff.

I never run below 36 and find 37 more to my liking it makes the car feel a bit more responsive on turns with a little more PSI. But everyone has their preferences of course too. Car can be very comfy on a smooth road but is kind of harsh on poor pavement that's for sure.

You want stiff, I drove into a friend's driveway and my Camaro became a tripod.

Why qualify it as a nice "V8" Camaro? Are there no nice "V6" Camaros? Man, you V8 guys crack me up.

Don't be jealous of us V6er's. We might not be as fast stock, but we get to drive around in the same beautiful body style that you guys do. And, you know what? We love our cars too.

Everybody loves there cars that are here.... We say nice "SS" or "V8 Camaro" because 90% are V6 or Turbo 4. I personally dont have an ego problem and dont care who has what, but I dont think anyone else previously posted has either.

Can you do a burnout on the freeway doing 80 mph?

My sarcasm alert must be on the blink.

Thanks for the comment about the car. I'm sure you get a lot of double takes when you're out cruisin'.
