Slow-V6, if she wasn't about running her car, why would she bother dynoing it and taking it to the track? people don't do that to show cars. also, i seriously doubt you get 33 MPG with your mods. I owned a '98 Camaro V6, and even with some mild modifications, it barely saw 28-30 MPG on the highway.

as for the 4th gen V6's running faster than 2nd and 3rd gen V8's, that may be true depending on which V8 you're talking about. An LG4 (4-bbl 305) will definitely lose to a 3.8L 4th gen, but an L98 will definitely lay the smack down on an L36. hell, even a decent-condition LB9 will take out a V6 4th gen.

I'm all for V6 performance. I loved my car when I had it, and had big plans for it. Don't get me wrong on that.

the topic of discussion here is the ugliness of the car. It is probably one of the top 5 worst-looking F-bodies ever. Redraif, not to diminish the time and effort you put into the car, but you could have had better taste when it came to the appearance. Â*It is unique and all, but that doesn't make it good-looking. Â*Lord knows how you won trophies with the thing.

However, I will say this: It is your car, and you will do with it as you see fit. If it looks good to you, that's fine. Don't get offended if someone (or in this case, nearly everyone) doesn't like it. Just accept it and move on. There's no need to go around and make a whole big scene because someone said something negative.

and to the other members of this club:

Let's chill out, OK? We should try to be a little more mature, and represent the club respectably. Don't degenerate into mindless internet flamers over something stupid.

I didnt say that 06-02 V6 3rd gens would beat all 3rd gen V8's... An L98 car is a bad ass car, so are the 91-92 305 TPI 5 speeds.. I have owned 3 3rdgens .. 1989 Formula with a 305 TPI auto that ran a 15.8@87mph stock, a 1988 GTA T/A with a 305 TPI 5speed that had shorties, full exaust, and a filter that ran a 15.6@91mph and a 86 camaro 2.8 5speed... I also owned a 1979 Formula with a pontiac 400 4 speed.. That thing ran a 16.34@84mph.. My 1998 ran a 15.4@91 bone stock.. I started all of this **** talking and I apologized.. can we just move on??

Was you V6 a 5 speed or auto?? Was it stock??
