1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 review from Peru
"Muscle car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Electric windows are a little bit slow.
General comments?
For a 1.5 tons it's a very agile car. The noise and feelin when hittin' the gas can't be found on other rides, that small block sounds like heaven, and the rear traction make a whole adventure a small trip.
The design, the rear window integrated to the form of the car, that huge nose and flat body make this ride a head turne. The "hugger" fits perfectly. Stang's of those years are no match for this ride.
It has a decent aceleration for a car of 27 years without major rebuilts, good handlin and stability on highway. However, it really needs some space to brake. Wide tires recomended (255/60 rear at minimun)
And, it's a 2 passenger car, no matter what GM says.
