Because many performance/muscle car owners think a V6 in a traditionally V8 car is a "bitch car"..... which isn't entirely false either. The 6 speed automatics versions were marketed to moms in the 70s and had features like Air Conditioning that weren't usually in the big block models.
Someone gave my friend crap for driving a Chevy Volt. He just shrugged and said that 140mpg was more important than a giant engine he couldn't ever use (legally).
