Chevrolet Camaro Coupe (1998 - 2004) 5.7 V8 Z28 2d Auto (1999/V) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

That I drive something different? Or that I look a plonker? Depends on POV - many people stare at the car and love it.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

All very impressed.

Would you buy this car again and why?

Not sure - unless a mint end of production example came up maybe. This one is pretty much spot on as is.

What are you likely to buy next?

Not looking to get rid of this at the moment. Too much fun. :-)

Type of dealer you bought from?

Didn't buy from a dealer

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£6,500

When did you buy the car?

June 2007

Did you get a good deal and why?

Very good - had been on ebay at a much higher price and not sold. Haggled a bit!

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Wanted a high performance American car...

What was the dealer like?

Private buyer - very friendly.

What's it like to drive?

Awesome. Acceleration from a standing start is a given but overtaking at any speed is also extremely easy.

What's it like to park?

Its a bit wider than your average car and the doors are quite large so I tend to park where there's a bit more room to get out easily without anything parking on the driver's side.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Nothing - so reliable its untrue.

What's most practical about your car?

The boot looks tiny but people are surprised at how much room there actually is - easily enough to carry home the monthly grocery shopping without folding down the rear seats (which do fold flat). And taking the T-Tops off means you can also carry trees home from the garden centre (really!).

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

The cruise control I think. And the electric seats which go every which way...
