If your getting a V6 and not putting in any work just go with a Challenger so you seem accepted.
OR just get a GTR for a V6

you guys kill me w/ the bashing of a V6...
hate to sound lame... but who's really putting all that power to use.
minus whale cop the v6 and save a couple bucks.
birds wont eem know the difference..
Honestly when i had my Mustang i put the power to use. I had a GT and getting on the gas when i got the chance with the exhaust setup i had, was a lot of fun. Freeway on-ramps and light to light accelerations were a blast.

I drive both these cars at work on a regular 2013-2014 models. Im not impressed with either one. If you are forcing me to pick between the two the camaro is better. If I was you Id say If you are going to buy a muscle car buy a proper muscle car when it mattered, go oldschool. If not dont bother. If you are talking oldschool Mustang.

Fam having a muscle car is all about that experience.. The sound of the engine roaring especially with aftermarket exhaust, the power on tap, that tailhappyness from the suspension... I could go on for days.
Buying a v6 voids everything the car is known for imo.. Would you buy a GTR without the twin turbo v6, without awd? Would u buy a car thatz known for the hemi without the HEMI? A car guy wouldn't cop a v6 stang, challenger, or camaro before the V8 model it just doesn't make sense in our minds...

Trust me, I wouldn't get a V6 either
I'm just saying in his case, he should go with one. He ain't ready for the V8 yet.

No one with any knowledge or hell just appreciation for muscle cars would get a V6 camaro stang or challenger. People that do usually do just for the name or so they can tell the birds they have a camaro, mustang, or challenger. Or they are females themselves.you guys kill me w/ the bashing of a V6...

Sounds like you'd get one of those cars to impress birds and not for yourself.
Go to a Chevy dealership and test drive a LT or LS. Then test drive a SS. Or vice versa. You will most definitely notice the difference.
Or Ford.
Or Dodge.
Do that and then you will know why true car fanatics bash V6 muscle cars.

Would you guys buy an R/T Challenger? I want an SRT badly but no way am I dropping 45K for one 
The R/T Challenger has a V8 but the performance of a V6 though |I I like Mustangs and Camaros a lot too, and I know that you can get a GT or SS for the same price as the R/T, but I really want a muscle car that's practical too. I frequently have visitors/family over and can't be cramming them and their luggage into a 4 seater with no trunk space. @#$@$@ Dodge needs to do a price drop on the SRT

The R/T is my favorite one... I damn near bought one for a GREAT price ($20k, 40k miles)
But later that night the dealer called me and said a guy came in a half hour later and got it
Been looking for that deal ever since

you just said it famb...
a car guy.
a good majority of the people aint copping for the performance. they're just copping b/c it looks nice to them. what's wrong w/ that?
why spend 45K on a srt8 when you sit in traffic on the way to work? or if you dont eem drive to work.
all i'm saying is, folks in here just laugh at a v6 when i'm pretty confident (no numbers) that those sell well... folks aint trying to have all that horse power while going pick their kid up from soccer practice.
or maybe they just like the car and dont want the extra stuff...?
i'm more than certain that there are more people NOT concerned with horse power, engine size and torque.... than there are that ARE concerned withit...
so, them copping b/c they like the car seems logical.
I havent compared the two. i'm sure an SS just blows LT out the water...
i do know that those cameros and challenger base models get PLENTY fast, though... and have more kick than a camry or a kia optima...
and its more than enough kick for the average person.

Neither get the challenger. that's the sexiest car I've seen in many years.
I'm not joking when I say I think it's sexier then a Lamborghini or a Bugatti. Hopefully one day after I graduate and get a job I'll get one

i drive an impala on 22s and a gsxr 1000...
the last thing on my mind in my whip is speeding.
i know a thing or two about motorcycles... and the v6 to v8 is kind of like a 600 to a 1000...
the most experienced riders down to the people that been on for a couple years will drive a 600 no problem b/c its plenty of power and speed, just like a base model muscle car.
my 1000 is overkill for what i do daily... i can get up to 160 with an extra gear left to shift into and no red line....
but i get to do that MAYBE once a week... and can barely find time to get to a track to really let it loose.
600 is perfect for the about 80 percent of riders on speed bikes b/c it's enough to have fun... still looks nice... and cheaper than big bikes.. just like a base model muscle car.
its prolly different in the motorcycle world... but cats that are BIKE GUYS dont look down on people that cop smaller bikes. we respect that people go after what suits their needs and wants the best. i NEVER heard a bike buy say "brah... what's the point of riding if you're just going to get a wimpy 600"
people will say that about a 250, but a 250 is also a safety issue... you cant take 250s on the highway, and you cant accelerate to get away from danager.... i would never compare a base model muscle car to a 250... 250s are like toyota corrolas.
can someone cop just to SEE how the power works, then move up? since its so much of a difference, you wouldnt want to throw an inexperienced driver behind othe wheel of something that can do so much so quickly...
and again... if someone is copping a whip to pull birds, then also, what's wrong with that? PLENTY of people do things to impress the opposite sex.. this aint nothing new.
another question... what if someone wants to put some rims on the whip? i wouldnt cop an srt if i know i'm trying to put 24s on it and drive slow.
there are all things yall should ask yourself before judging someone who wants to cop a v6.

Neither. I'm not in high school anymore. You guys are talking about impressing girls with these whips?
Maybe in the trailer park or the hood.

bingo.....
Im one of the biggest gearheads on this site and I totally understand the purpose behind 6cyl pony cars. Plain and simple... different options for different demographics.
If it weren't for the droves of 6cyls being manufactured and sold, a v8 would run nearly 100k. By producing the common mans daily driver on the same platforms as their performance spec vehicles it allows companys to offset their production costs and overall sell more vehicles. This keeps the prices of the v8s down and makes top of the line models much more cost effective to produce.
Not to mention.... most inexperienced drivers dont need 400+ hp on a daily.... insurance rates reflect this. 6cyls allow younger people who cant afford to insure a v8 or handle that kind of power a great starting point to get into the game.
