Faults:

Frequent lamp replacement, both headlamps and taillamps.

Manual transmission repeatedly popping out of 2nd gear, as well as reverse.

Engine seized up and had to be replaced at 24000 miles. Cause was found to be the intake of water by driving through a flooded parking lot (which only had 8 inches of water in it).

General Comments:

The general layout of the vehicle is that of a cockpit, and cradles the driver nicely. Regardless of your height, you will not be able to see the hood which gives the car the impression of being shorter than it actually is.

Everything is in a sensible place and not far from reach, whether it be the stereo, the power windows, cigarette lighter, or even the manual shift. This car's comfort and interior design were well thought out.

Engine is a disappointment in the V6 model. A mere 160hp feels much less in this heavy car. Sluggish is the appropriate word, which is disappointing considering the car brakes and corners as if it would love the challenge of a larger engine. Perhaps the Z-28 would have been a better choice.

Cosmetically I have found the paint (in my case, arctic white) to fade at an alarming rate. However, this car does have a beautiful chassis with beautiful lines.

Faults:

The fuel pump went out a few days ago, which would be May, 12 2002. I had to replace the whole computer in the car, but I think that was because when I first bought the car the heat didn't work. So I had the lines flushed and two hours after that the computer was messing up?!?

General Comments:

Other than those couple of things, the car is in perfect running and looking condition. I really couldn't be happier with the car I chose. If you are looking for a fast ride for the smaller buck than this is the car for you!

Very comfortable inside with the bucket seats!

Amazing power, if you have an automatic I would suggest a shift kit!

Faults:

The u-joints went bad at 78,000 miles.

The drive shaft needed to be adjusted at 79,000 miles.

I blew a rear transmission mount at 79,000 miles.

General Comments:

I love the way it handles overall. It does tend to fish tail when driving in the rain.

The Camaro has unbelievably great acceleration through all revolutions per minute. This car is the best car for anyone looking for a high performance car for a low price.

Insurance is another story though. If you are under 21 you can expect to pay quite a large sum of money for insurance on this car. There are also a lot of after market products to bolt on to make it faster. Which, I might add, the insurance company does not need to know about.
