"She is fast and mean, but I love her anyway.."

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The windshield motor needs to be replaced.

The interior looks like a smoker lost control of his cherry more than a few times.

The paint is old and in the process of being replaced.

Needs new engine mounts and requires a lot of attention to minor corrections.

General comments?

I like being able to take a turn at a quick pace and have the car hold like super-glue; and that is exactly what I get from driving this car. It's acceleration will throw your head back and makes getting on the freeways of L.A. no problem.

Definitely a car that could be major pimp-mobile if the time is taken to make the inside and outside look nice.

I have recently purchased a 1987 Camaro Berlinetta and I would have to agree with your comments. I have the same engine and transmission as the car you reviewed, and I have to say, the power is nice. I am in the process of replacing the front brakes, and I noticed the tie-rod ends are shot. That may be something to look for in a Camaro of this age, although I must also note that the car had 93,000 miles upon my purchase, as opposed to 50 some-odd. Another thing to be suspicious about is the weather proofing around the T-tops. Even though it's not a big job, it's an expensive job, and just locating the correct weather stripping is a job in itself. But these are all the things you have to deal with in order to have a "cool" car. I give two thumbs up to the 1987 Camaro Berlinetta.
