I am actually very excited about the V6. At first, I wouldn't give it a chance, but when I heard it was the DI 3.6, I changed my tune. The V-6 is no "muscle-car" but it's going to be a very adequate and well-balanced sports car. It'll provide ample fun in both driving and looks, and it won't and arm and a leg. Honestly, think of another car that is rear wheel drive (with a limited slip IRS no less!), has 300+hp and a 6-speed manual for under 24g's (yes, I'm buying the 1LS because I hate automatic seats and I just don't need the other crap weighing me down). The V-6 car is the budget-minded enthusiasts dream. I'll still make fun of past gen V-6 F-bodies and any Mustang (6 or 8 cyl), but I really think the "base" V-6 Camaro is going to surprise a lot of people.
