2006 SS/SC or 2009 SS/TC

What would you choose? I have a buddy who had an '07 SS/SC and then got a '10 SS/TC he says he wishes he had kept SC. I have an '06 and am now looking at an '09 and would like some input on this please.

My '06 has Sunroof, side-curtain airbags, On star, and i know the 09's have most of that as std equip but the '09 has every option except RPD. I'm mainly wondering if it's worth selling mine to "upgrade" to '09. which one is better handling if I have TC stuts and shocks in my SC? What about all the extra stuff like Yaw sensor etc? And for power adding. Is it better to upgrade a TC or SC? My '06 is stock in that dept.

yeah that's what I was thinking anyways. I've had the '06 since new and hence the reason she's still stock lol.

u can make power out of the sc's it jus takes more money and more time and effort but the end result is worth it in my eyes since most ppl jus giv up on being sc because of the money it takes

If your car is paid for just Take the cost difference between the two and buy the features you want haha. or do a turbo build and be ahead of the game

I've rode in a couple different SS/SC with different upgrades, and none of them pull like my stock SS/TC did.. interior isn't as "nice", handling isn't that great(though we didn't go thru any crazy curves or anything, I jus felt the body roll...) but, overall, it's just a step up.. couple steps up depending on what you wanna do with the car mod-wise.. with just a tune, the SS/TC opens up, tune/intake/Downpipe is all you really need to wake the car up an keep it 'stockish'

plus you get the cool wheels

I went from a stock LSJ to a LNF. Never looked back.

but then again, I just wanted a car that's fun to mod and turbo. nothing crazy. I'm not into building my motor or ZZP Turbo swaps or anything. I always thought it would be cool to do the BNR but meh.
