Default Dead...

My 1990 RS camaro is dead. It has yet again broke and I am just tired of fixing that piece of crap. I am going back to a real car company. Subaru. They know how to make a good car and my old one has 50,000 more miles then my camaro with 0 problems.

Take of the Camaro and it will last forever. My dad has a 1982 Z28 with 200,000 miles and it runs fine.

Yes u can make them run forever by paying over and over again to replace parts but if you want car that will last to 200,000 miles and you can beat the hell out of it by a real car company. American car company's just don't know what they are doing.

It depends on how well the car is taken care of.

Did you buy the car brand new? Have you done proper maintenance?

You can't compare a car that you have driven for all its life to a car that you bought second hand and the owner(s) before have hot rodded it and not taken care of it.

If you don't like american muscle cause you didn't buy a car that was taken care of that's your fault. We don't want your whiny ricer *** here. Bye.

^^ lol +1

RS, this is not the place to bash Camaro's lol, maybe you have a piece of sh*t but that's just you. but i imagine it's a TBI 305? if so it is junk lol. But if you take good care of any car it should be fine. Sorry for your probs, i know a bunch of people with 2nd and 3rd gens and not one of us have probs we can't handle. But don't worry, your camaro blues will pass lol, you'll regret it if you get rid of it. Maybe drop a 68-80 sbc in her, I never had any probs with them that i didnt cause lol.

No car lasts 200,000 miles if you beat it to hell, let alone forever. My dad keeps his Z28 running by keeping up the maintenance and replacing the parts that are designed to wear out.

I agree. So go buy your Subaru RS Camaro, but any part that you replace on that car will cost much more than any part for your Camaro.

Hell just give me your camaro and I'll put a 350 with 400hp in it for $3,900, from here http://www.cmengines.com/Engines/Per...3/Default.aspx, and it'll make a nice street/strip car and you'll be done fixing problems
