1983 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 review from North America
"This car is awesome, and very fast, but for experienced drivers, not recommended as a first car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My clutch went out in the mid summer and I had it replaced, and OEM clutches seem to be hard to find for these cars so an aftermarket clutch was installed.
The interior wears normal for a 22 year old vehicle, but in all is still in good condition.
I replaced the 4 barrel carburetor as well because the one on the car at the time was just worn out overtime.
General comments?
This car is awesome especially for a 22 year old vehicle and its power is awesome.
This car handles better than my 1996 grand am.
The car is especially Fast, and I have beaten quite a few imports and newer mustangs with this car with ease.
The interior of the car is great if your young, but older people seem to have a hard time getting in and out of the vehicle.
