Strength:
Reliability, Acceleration, Good gas milage for the amount of power it makes, looks, amount of aftermarket parts
Weakness:
Not the best in rainy conditions, interior feels cheap.. although I''ve taken care of mine and nothing is broken yet. My car has 121k miles and I drive it daily about 100 miles back and forth to school. I have the k&n filter and a cold air, and a flowmaster exhaust added to the car, and it will move real well for the 20mpg+ average I get with this car. It will beat any non modified mustang gt, and I''ve managed to beat an earlier 90''s model cobra in it with ease. I dog my car out daily and it loves the abuse. The great part is, I get better gas milage than my dad''s v6 dodge dakota, and my friends 2000 mustang gt, and that''s for a motor that has 120,000 miles on it, not quite the most efficient point for any motor. Handling is so-so in stock condition, but I added subframe connectors and dropped it an inch and a half, and it really livens the car up.. with lots of room for improvement.. For a muscle car it really holds it own, I''ve raced a Bmw z3 before through some turns, and even though during the hard twistes he was gaining on me slightly, this things acceleration is balls to the wall. As noted before in other reviews, the car is very loud (especially with my exhaust), but I don''t mind that at all. My only real problem with the car is in rain, if I''m taking a turn, I must go very slow. The transmission has shifted on me hard enough before to kick me around sideways unexpectedly.. making me feel very lucky I managed to keep it inline! Also must be very feathery with gas pedal from take off. I''ve put about 30-40k miles on my car since I''ve bought it and only had to spend about 50 bucks on it. I''ve replaced the thermostat, which was about 4 dollars.. and was a 3 minute install.. It also ran alot cooler when I put a 160 degree thermostat in it. I also broke a transmission mount power braking it (my own damn fault), which was a 30 minute install and 20 bucks for a new one! This thing is also a looker.. It''s black, and I got the windows tinted black and put some black tail light covers on it, with my chrome rims.. it is sharp as anything... I''ve had a few cars over the years, and I do not like any of them as much as I like this one. From BMW''s to Honda Civic''s, none of them are as fun as this car. Great overall car! Don''t miss out on the value. Similar Products Used: Iroc Z (ate it alive) 94 Trans Am BMW 328i |

Berlinetta
Strength:
Comfortable Effortless acceleration Snappy acceleration Digital Dash Funky twising tape deck
Weakness:
Sounded like a wasking machine Reliability problems Not a performance car Rattles As car for a college boy, this was good for a while. Decent power from the 5.0 v8, decent looks. Handling was mediocre. At the time, this was a great car but as I got closer to 100,000 miles things started falling apart - alternator, radiator, A/C, fuel lines, carb etc. It got to the point where I was spending more per month to keep it running than it would cost to buy a new car, so I bought a new car (1993 Dodge Shadow).

Camaro SS
Strength:
Acceleration, comfortable, back seats (room for baby seat). Engine noise.
Weakness:
View from cockpit. Engine noise. Used Caamros are a bargain. The classic phrase is "best bang for the buck". Add some modifications, you have a very cheap vette. I have ZO6 power, but not quite the handling and braking, yet. Any car can be made that much better. Similar Products Used: 1993, 1999 vette |

Camaro V6 3.8 series II
Strength:
Nice V6 ,good torque. Cosmeticlly pleasing ,good stereo
Weakness:
Crappy interior, poor build quality Steering is too light,no real fell that you are in control of wheels.Wanders on bumpy roads, Go easy on Icy or Wet roads. The chevrolet Camaro ,In the UK you have got more chance of seeing Islami bin laden, running from the scuds ,than seeing another camaro on the other side of the road, an quite rare car to see in the britain ,due to the left Hand Drive format . A Stunning to look at car, scares the S*it out of any other Euroboxes on the road, due overall size of the vechile .(this Car is BIG for our Roads-Streets) Similar Products Used: Fiat x19, Ford sierra,Dodge Ram |

Craig
Strength:
Torque, HP, and grip on dry surfaces.
Weakness:
Mediocre handling and no traction on wet roads. Goes fast in a straight line very well. Turns less well, especially at speed. Bumps make the rear end hop around like you''d expect on a solid rear-axle car. Interior is nicely designed but of poor quality -- lots of little things break all the time. Similar Products Used: Porsche 944 (no comparison...944 is much better handler while Camaro is much better at throwing you back into your seat). |

Pretty car.
Weakness:
Overall build of the car. The trunk LEAKS!!! The right side mirror has broken several times. Overall a decent experience. I use this as a commuter car and it has kept up O-Kay. I have had to replace the catalytic converter and my right side mirror tends to break very easily. My trunk leaks. Similar Products Used: None |
