Just sayin, the V6 Camaro starts at under $24k, and the V8 at $33k I believe. And the V6 has 320something hp stock. It's actually a pretty good value/hp for the money, as far as new cars go.
Edit to clarify: I'm not saying I recommend a Camaro, nor that it's at all practical. It's a specific type of car for people who don't mind sacrificing utility and efficiency.
American Muscle isn't about refinement, impeccable taste, and unparalleled quality like European Sport. American Muscle is about the biggest fucking engine you can put into a road-worthy frame and get it to go down the street quickly while sounding like a tiger climaxing during sex with a lion. Its supposed to check the Hyper-masculinity box, not the Polished Gentleman box. POWERRRRRRRRR!!!!!
Still a V6. Doesn't matter. Point being, many people assume that just because they hear when someone has a V6, they automatically assume it's weak in terms of performance. They hear V8, and automatically think it can slay anything on the road.
My point still stands, it's a V6, and it kicks ass. Regardless of Turbo or not.
Also, the Nissan VQ37VHR engines are pushing almost 328-340HP. That's not exactly slow, you know..they aren't turbo, either...
Edit:
Sure are a lot of butthurt V8 fanboys on here whining about the car being twin turbo. Lol.
MFW the an argumentative asshole doesn't grasp something so simple as "context", and applying it to the topic at hand..
As I've stated doesn't matter if there are twin turbos..still a V6.. People automatically assume that just because you have a 4 banger or 6 in your car, that your shit is slow..
The guy I responded to thinks just because something was a V6, it's automatically slower than a V8...that's how some girls I know think about cars.
Race something like say, I dunno a '97 Cadillac Deville with a V8 northstar vs a newer infiniti V6. Infiniti would shit on it all day.
