I've been reading these "V6 vs. V8" threads for years and have kept my thoughts about this topic to myself as these quickly descend into belittling owners for what they value and or can or cannot afford. Plus, there are MANY C5 members (owners of V6's and V8's, alike) who are just plain mean when sounding off on this topic.

However, unless you're tracking or street racing your 5th Gen. Coupe, you're not "upgrading to an SS" unless you're getting into a convertible (either an LT or an SS).

Driving a 5th Gen. Chevrolet Camaro may be "priceless", but owning a 5th Gen. Chevrolet Camaro Convertible is not just "driving a Camaro". It's a way of life.
