1995 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 review from North America
"Excellent sports car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The intake gasket failed causing the check engine to come on giving a bad oxygen sensor fault code. The lock on the T-top fell out of the T-top easy fix for the do it yourself the clip worked its way out of the lock mechanism. The brake pads failed at 52,0000 miles. The only other part that failed was the ABS motor pack failed which was an expensive repair for the part alone.
General comments?
I really enjoy the vehicle it handles really well, the engine is strong very powerful. The only complaint I have about the vehicle is that it is difficult to work on for the do it yourselfer. The cabin and instrument cluster is well placed easy to see. The back seat is small good for a child, but, not for an adult. The cost of parts are a little higher than other vehicles I have owned, but, I am willing to sacrifice that for the performance of the vehicle.
