I totally agree! I ended up buying a 06 loaded gt after about 6 mths of shopping around and driving the v6 and v8 versions back to back and one thing that i will vouch for is the less than "wow" feeling of the ss camaro in all honesty i was more impressed with the v6 rs camaro due to how great the 6 is! now driving the mustang back to back the new 5.0 is an amazing leap ahead of 6 and that is no slouch itself. congrats on the new ride!

I too looked at the SS and the RS several times and just never felt the WOW factor. I have my sights on the 5.0 myself -- However, I'm waiting for the 2012.

Thanks for all the welcomes - I haven't taken very many pictures of the new GT yet (too busy driving, waxing and polishing, lol) but here are a few I took with the phone. Btw, I know the front plate look hideous but, unfortunately, I have to have one in Texas although if it wasn't already on when I found the car at the dealer, I wouldn't have put it on myself. I drove the SS for a year and never had a front plate on it but, oh well. It's not the looks so much as knowing you have two holes drilled in your front bumper - why can't they use double-sided tape!?!

Congrats on the new ride.

When the transformer movie came out and I saw that new Camaro I was excited. When the local Chevy dealer called me to tell me they had one that came in.... I rushed down there to see and drive it!!!

That is as far as the wow factor went.... exterior brings you in to see and that is about it.
