Pros: Durable build quality, handling, adequate power

The Bottom Line: Buy it if you want a good Camaro that will last a while and look good. Good, spirited American car.
When people speak of a 3800 Series II-powered Chevrolet Camaro, it's either Corvette or Z28 owners mocking them or teenage girls hailing them. I think those same Corvette/Z28 owners could take a cue from the girls and give one a drive before cursing it, ... read more

I've had my Z28 for almost 5 years now, and I am still extremely happy with it.

I own a 1996 Camaro, it is a V6. I bought it used in 97, and have been driving ever since. It accelerates really well, and it still gets decent gas mileage. I wish I had more room though, because you can hardly fit anyone under 10 in the back seats. ... read more

Cons: poor visability
The Bottom Line: This car not only looks good, but it handels well and is fast.
Camaros are one of the few cars we can call a 'classic' For people who havn't owned one such as myself until 12 months ago, must wonder what all the fuss is about and why Cameros are still popular to this day.

Pros: Power in it's class, comfort for two, glued to the road, and cost effective
