  • Bullet Proof!!! - 2001 Chevrolet Camaro
    By -

    My car (2001 Z28) has been very reliable from day one. Bought it new fully loaded and now has about 92k miles, I hope I didnt jinx it. I think as long as it continues to receive proper maintainance, this beauty will continue to run strong for eons. Its truly a looker and Ive been asked many times if I want to sell it and the answer is always no. Too bad I cant post a pic here to show her off.

  • Super fun gas saver - 2001 Chevrolet Camaro
    By -

    I bought this Camaro with 100K on it. It runs and looks new. It was owned by a preachers daughter (really) and she babied it. I wanted a car that was better on gas than my 4x4 F150. This Camaro has been turning in mpg between 28 and 31 in mixed town and interstate driving. I had in mind of buying some boring old guy car like a Buick Century. This lil Camaro is so much more better looking, more fun and better mpg to boot. I love this car.

  • My "01SLP SS - 2001 Chevrolet Camaro
    By -

    I got the car a few months ago from a guy that had barely decided to sell it. I jumped on it and got the car for $6k. It is T-Top, 6 speed standard, LS1 engine, and all stock, (which I highly recommend people get, A stock car). Once I got the car, the clutch went out. I just decided to park the car and mod it. I barely got done working car and its great! I love it to death! I put 3" flowmaster super 44 american thunders, 3" slashed tips,a SLP cold air set up, Edelbrock headers,(which dropped the 0-60 time by 1 FULL SECOND!),pistol grip Hurst shifter and short throw, Eiback springs,Moroso shocks and oil pan,Vette injectors, and 18" Z06 black vette rims. I blacked the car out!

    This is my first car its a basic V6 hatchback and so far its been better than anything out there I could afford. It handles windy roads like its on rails and puts the power down when you want it. The monsoon sound system blows my friends systems away. This one is going to be around for a long time.

  • Been a Good Car - 2001 Chevrolet Camaro

    I bought the car new in 2001 and with the exception of a broken mirror control, and defective battery terminal has never had a problem. Has a lot of high end features.

  • Great fun car - 2001 Chevrolet Camaro
    By -

    Bought this car in June of 2006. Has the base 3.8 features including no power windows or locks but has the ttops and the awesome monsoon stereo. Such a fun car to drive tho and always get compliments on it. Rear wheel drive is a ton of fun too but its a bit difficult to drive in the snow. Love the styling of this gen Camaro. Fuel economy isnt great but not terrible. Very reliable for me as I have yet to have something major breakdown. This car loves to hug the road at high speeds and on big curves. Driving with the windows down and ttops off, its just an amazing car to cruise in. With the rear seats folded down you can fit quite a fair amount of cargo in the car if needed. Awesome car!

  • Fun car to have/drive - 2001 Chevrolet Camaro
    By -

    Its a fun car to drive. The power is exceptional and it seems to never end. The handling is also very superb, as well is the braking. Like they say, its a cheap mans Corvette. I have had good gas-mileage with the car, mostly on the highway. In the city it can eat up some gas. The seats are so-so for long trips. Needs more lumbar support and better, softer bottom cushions. The exterior styling takes some getting used to as well as the interior could have gotten a bit more attetion. However, your mind is completely taken away from those slight flaws once you roll into acceleration. Its amazing that GM outpowers and out handles its competitors with "aged" technology.

  • Finally got it. - 2001 Chevrolet Camaro
    By -

    To be completely honest, Ive allways been an F-body fan. I dreamt of having this car in high school and I got it. Now thats out of the way, this truly is a great car. With $123 invested in a simple lid, the car runs 12.9 1/4 on street tires and puts down 310 hp to the rear wheels with an automatic. Just impressive. I have had the car up to very extra legal speeds and its rock solid. On the corners, it could use a better wieght ditribution, but itll still outhandle 90% of the cars out there. There is a leak on the drivers side window. I average 19 city and 28 highway. With this much power on tap, thats awesome. For my money, this car is everything I was expecting.

  • Z28 - 2001 Chevrolet Camaro
    By -

    This vehicle is a sports car designed to go fast. With this you lose some fuel economy (although 18-20 mpg is not bad for a V8) and some interior luxury but the trade off is worth it. It hugs the road very nicely. It is very fast and it sounds good with an aftermarket exhaust system (I recommend Borla but to each his/her own) since Chevy did a poor job on these stock systems.

  • Gas Milage On Actual Usage - 2001 Chevrolet Camaro
    By -

    Yes, Ive noticed that in town stop and go driving kills the mpg, but once on the highway its much better. I have the V-6. The only thing Ive noticed is that tiny rust marks like tiny pin hole drops are all over the paint. Im not sure what happened there since I bought the car used back in Nov. 03.
