While the V8 SS does pack one hell of a punch, the V6 still has 312 frikin horse power, but apparently the SS performs better by a large margin but the price difference is around 10 grand between the two models...in terms of all your experiences with Camaros and cars in general, Is it more wise to just go with the V6 or might as well go all out with the V8 and have more fun and not care about how it eats up the gas? Thanks everyone.
