1990 Chevrolet Camaro Rally Sport review from North America
"A true testament to American engineering and ingenuity."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The dashboard cracks easily.
My torque converter let go and took the transmission and transmission pump with it.
The trunk lid motor is somewhat unreliable and fragile. I have replaced it twice.
General comments?
This is a very reliable and affordable powerhouse that is easily upgraded with plenty of room in the engine bay.
Fast enough to do something stupid in, but controllable enough to save it.
My car has 165,000 original miles on the odometer and yet it still runs like it just came off of the assembly line. That's after putting it through it's paces for five years.
Very few major problems.
