This is my second Z-28, and it has been the best. With a lot of power to get from point A to point B with a smile on my face. Had the 4L60E trans rebuilt to Corvette specs. Now my wife hates to ride in it, breaks my heart she won't drive. HA HA.

Faults:

The optispark dist. went out three different times, and the price and location of the part on the car were a real drag!

General Comments:

This car is amazing. Great handling; you could make quick work out of Chicago traffic if it was moving.

Great performance. You could easily put the hammer down and the car behind you was a memory in few seconds.

This car never had a alternator, starter, or fail. Original motor, trans and rear-end. I molested this car at every chance I got and it only wanted more and more! Thanks Chevy; it is an amazing piece of work.

Faults:

Had to replace the water pump at around 80,000 miles, cost $500.

Mice chewed trough wires two years in a row, close to $100 each time.

Runs the battery dead during winter. Easily fixed by removing for the winter.

General Comments:

Other than the water pump, the car has run strong. The 6 speed manual is a must. This is great when you want to jump off the line or run @2000 rpm doing 80 on the freeway. I was able to get 23 Mpg on a regular basis.

The only modification I put on it is SLP exhaust, it looks and sounds mean. The skip shift in first gear is a pain, but you learn to work around it or you can pay for a chip to bypass.

All in all this is a great ride. It is a lot of fun crusin' with the T-tops off on a nice day.

Faults:

Transmission. Its not good when a transmission only lasts 60 thousand miles.

I also replaced the drivers side power window motor.That's a two to three hour job.

Crack in the door (600 dollars to fix if I want it done)

Windshield wipers (80 dollars at the dealer, no other ones fit)

Headlights (no biggie, but I wish you only had to replace the bulb instead of the whole headlight)

Fuel pump (they have to drop the fuel tank, that cost me 6 bills and the mechanic screwed up the fuel gauge and wanted more money to fix the problem that he caused) He's no longer my mechanic.

General Comments:

I love this car, its the best car I ever had.

I always wanted a convertible and I'm only going to live once. Too bad that I live in Vancouver where it rains 6 months of the year.

The guy I bought it from said it had every option. It doesn't have the one option I really wanted (traction control).I wanted to save money on tires for a change.

I recommend this car for anybody that likes speed.
