However, Unless you're tracking or street racing your 5th Gen. coupe, you're not "upgrading" by trading an LS / LT for an SS unless you're getting into a convertible (either an LT or an SS).
Driving a 5th Gen. Chevrolet Camaro Convertible is not just "driving a Camaro" (aka; "priceless"). It's a way of life. That's the bottom line (at least for me).

You do not have to be on a race track or be street racing to enjoy improved performance, both handling and horsepower. I am sure your convertible is a lot of fun, no doubt, but understand how disappointed I would be the very first corner I threw it into. It all just depends what you want out of your driving experience. To each his own!
