1995 Chevrolet Camaro z28 convertible review from North America
"Fastest Car for the Money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission. Its not good when a transmission only lasts 60 thousand miles.
I also replaced the drivers side power window motor.That's a two to three hour job.
Crack in the door (600 dollars to fix if I want it done)
Windshield wipers (80 dollars at the dealer, no other ones fit)
Headlights (no biggie, but I wish you only had to replace the bulb instead of the whole headlight)
Fuel pump (they have to drop the fuel tank, that cost me 6 bills and the mechanic screwed up the fuel gauge and wanted more money to fix the problem that he caused) He's no longer my mechanic.
General comments?
I love this car, its the best car I ever had.
I always wanted a convertible and I'm only going to live once. Too bad that I live in Vancouver where it rains 6 months of the year.
The guy I bought it from said it had every option. It doesn't have the one option I really wanted (traction control).I wanted to save money on tires for a change.
I recommend this car for anybody that likes speed.
