I wanted one of these back when I was 16 in 2002. My dad wouldn't let me buy one cause of insurance cost. This was easily my #1 car back in the day & still looks great today in 2023.
I got me a 97 now. That was my car I wanted when I was 17 when it came out. Couldn't be happier with it. ruclips.net/video/ItJ4kFxdWIo/видео.html ruclips.net/video/C2gFCcXRhUA/видео.html
It would have been great for the time if the rpo code "L99" 265/4.3L small V8 (base engine for the Caprice) would have been offered as V8 option on the base Camaro. Maybe 215-220hp and 255-260 lbs-ft of torque with the dual exhaust. Kind of an intermediate range performer and a less pricey V8 Camaro than the full on Z28.
I could get down with that. It would've made for a cool Rally Sport package option. Or a Berlinetta where you get all the nice interior options, standard trim and the entry level V8.
Had a 96 3.8 5 speed and raced a couple (stock) lt1 z28's. I didn't feel too bad about the performance. Of course I lost but the lt1 wasn't as dominant as I thought it'd be. The ls1? Yeah no comparison lol
@@chemicalspore bullshit lol that 3.8 isn't touching a 2v 4.6 '99+....might run close a 94-98 4.6 but 99+ is a whole different animal lol my 99 5sp GT would run with LT1 z28s easy(z28 had just bit more hp/tq and weighed less cuz mine was a drop top lol)
@@chemicalspore who knows, most likely driver error🤷♂️😂 I've had people drive mine and I'm just sittin there like "shit, you tryin to haul ass, or get to the store by next Tuesday?" Lmao

Dang, this is clearer than a lot of the official uploads from Motorweek.
I love this style body this Camaro
Still got mine remain engine 95 3.4l v6
Mine won't start... no 5 volts from pcm
My favorite generation of Camaro
96-02 V6 F bodies were 2nd only to the ground shaking 5.7 LT1 V8.

@@christopherhouck3846 Absolutely, maybe even an LT in there as well. You said it.
Thank god they went to the 3800 v6 in 98.
I had a 1996 with a 3.8
V8 only . V6 camaro sucks
@justinwhite9689 the lt1 was good in some parts but overall not worth it I would prefer the ls1 5.7
@@justinwhite9689 The Sixth Generation V6 is way underrated. It's come along way since the time of this vid.

I had on around 2007-2015, what a gas guzzler that was 15-16 mpg city and 24 mpg highway. 160hp was not enough out of the 3.4L
Gas guzzler 😂😂
Beautiful Camaro
The 4th gen fbodys never aged
I love this generation of Camaro
It is a family thing.😊
The black mirrors make the entire car look a little un-finished. Good looking and these were everywhere back in the day.
The Camaro is more beautiful in Black anyway.
The black mirrors only work if the basket handle and roof are also black.
Got to have the black roof ruclips.net/video/ItJ4kFxdWIo/видео.html
Them on their own yes. you had to have the mirrors, roof, headlight buckets and basket handle black for it to look good
Jesse from full house sitcom.,,😊
It's a hard top😊
Imagine a new 3.6 in one of these. 300 hp and 30 mpg.
The F bodies didn't get a good V6 engine, Buick 1996-02.
Hard-Top?😊😊
I had a 93 V6. Was so slow
I had a 3.4 it was decent for its time in 93. The 3.8 was a big improvement after 96 though
@dougsmith9571 I traded my 93 3.4, 4 speed auto for a 2002 3.8, 5 speed. I would keep up or beat the old 4.6 liter mustangs in the 2002.
