1987 Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z review from North America
"The poor man's Ferrari!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rebuild motor.
Exhaust manifold gasket.
Main gasket.
PVC valve.
Starter.
Starts very poorly (long crank time).
Gets a lot of attention (in a bad way - ex. car thief's).
General comments?
This car has given me a lot of trouble, but I could not stand to get rid of it.
The car handles amazingly.
Lots of power when you push the pedal to the floor.
A super easy car to build up to go really really fast.
Gets lots of the right attention (ex. girls).
Extremely sharp looking car.
Very comfortable car for driving long distances in.
