Personally I dont understand the continued hate against V6 Camaros and Mustangs. I mean do you guys not remember the early 2000s of V8 versions of these cars? Literally the V6s Mustangs and Camaros of today are faster and have more HP than the V8 versions 15 years ago. They are both 13 second cars, which IMO any car hitting 13s from the factory is respectable.
Literally the 2002 Camaro SS was a 5.7L V8 with 325 HP, the V6 Camaros of today are 335HP! Stock for Stock a 2017 V6 camaro is faster than a 2017 fusion sport.
The 2017 Chevrolet Camaro 1LE is a Game Changer ? Speed Society
"While the last generation 1LE was only an option for V-8 SS models, this generation includes the little brother; the V6. A V6 Camaro sounds like a rental car or a car that somebody would buy their spoiled teenage daughter, but let’s look at some numbers. In 2002, everybody thought Chevy was selling the last Camaro and ran out to buy the big bad SS. The outgoing SS model was one bad ride in 2002 with a 325-hp, 5.7-liter LS1 under the hood. Sending that power through a 6-speed manual transmission, these rides could go 0-60mph in a swift 5.2 seconds. They could do a 1/4 mile in 13.5 @ 107mph completely stock. Let us compare this to the new V6 Camaro. The sixth-generation rental car with the new 8-speed automatic can do 0-60 in 5.1 second and run the 1/4 mile in 13.5 @ 103 mph. So, the old baddest Camaro hardly matches up to the new Camaro rental car. The new V6 is no joke, especially in 1LE trim."
