1987 Chevrolet Camaro LT 2.8 V6 from North America
Summary:
Perfect sports car for the young buck
Faults:
Well, temperature gauge wasn't working. Had to change the sensors.
The transmission mounts are shot, I've still to replace those.
Has an exhaust leak up on the headers (I don't really mind it, it makes it sound pretty sweet).
The transmission is automatic, 3 speed with O/D. It was jumping out of O/D into third on the highway, and wouldn't shift properly. This was fixed by blocking off a sensor, which overrides it entirely.
General Comments:
Dark maroon red exterior with a black leather interior. Very comfortable, I enjoy road trips with it. And it isn't extremely hard on fuel if you don't drive it like an idiot.
Pretty peppy for a V6, and handles like a dream! Sticks to the pavement no matter the corners.
Starts in the coldest of weather and even starts better than my 05 F150 :S. It's usually parked for the winter, but it's been started in up to -25 here in Saskatchewan.
With black louvers wrapped around the back window, the car looks sleek as hell flying down the highway. I do wish it was a 5 speed though.
I'd buy an IROC-Z in a heartbeat for the right price.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
