Seriously, though, was that an old 3.5L V6, or the new Pentastar engine?
Pentastar, it actually made a world of difference how that car responds. The old 3.5L was a total dog in that big ole car.

Feels like stiffer Charger, still way more floaty than the Camaro. That photo was in Aguirre Springs just outside of the White Sands Missle Range, it actually absorbed most of the bumps well.

Yea I hear they ride really well. Great cruising car with awesome looks but still lacks a bit with performance. Have you ever driven the Camaro V6? Was wondering your pov on the differences if there are any.
