1999 Chevrolet Camaro SS review from North America
"The fastest most unreliable car produced for around $30,000"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
F-body cars come unaligned from the factory with the camber not set right so the outside of the front tires wear fast in, which the dealer refused to fix.
Rear end leaked - fixed.
Rear end bearing seized and damaged the rear end - the dealer will not fix correctly.
The car has on 7500 miles on it.
General comments?
The GM F-body cars are the fastest thing on four wheels for under $30,000; however GM can't build quality in a car for anything. Very unreliable, never know when something will give up.
