I could have understood that last year, when the SS was outselling the v6, but I'm pretty sure that with the way sales has flipped, there's almost the same amount of interest, if not more to mod the v6. Of course this is just speculation on my part, but so was your statement. Heck, just today I saw a handful of new members wanting to mod their newly bought v6's.

I think the last guy hit the nail on the head about companies gearing towards v8's because that's what usually brought the money. But then again, the v6 mustang already has more going for it then the v6 camaro.

The v6 has been on sale and out on the streets for what, 2 years now? The whole "it's still a new engine" is played out. Especially since there has been no progress with any other tunes besides one.
