1985 Chevrolet Camaro Sport Coupe review from North America
"Wished I had it longer"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I didn't have the car long enough for anything to really "go wrong".
Although, I did notice oil leaking from one of the valve covers, and dripping down onto the manifold, which would begin to smoke once the engine got warm.
Aside from the smell though, it wasn't too big of a deal.
General comments?
Okay, so here's the deal. It was sort of a love/hate thing with this car.
I only had it for two weeks because of two reasons:
One - I am one of those people who buys things they can't afford, and then gets all annoyed when they can't keep said things.
Two - After my landlord noticed that I was parking it more than I was driving it, he made it known that if I didn't move it within a certain period of time, he would have it towed.
So, I sold it. Mostly because of the money trouble I was having at the time.
Anyway, back to the love/hate part.
I loved this car because it was a blast to drive. That little 2.8 Multi-Port is one good little engine, and the manual transmission made it all the more fun.
I hated it because of the money problems I was having, and buying it made said problems even worse, but as we all know, that's my fault.
