Default Camaro --POS---GARBAGE:update

So--the 1995 moneypit I complained about in another thread------
[:-]--sold it for profit--[:-]
It took a monumental effort to fix all that was wrong.
Made 90% of my cash back.
The guy who bought it just called and said the blinkers stopped working.
I told him it was[ as is ]and thats it!
he agreed
I Got out just in time.

Things to look for on the v6 4th gens
.Passenger rear coil goes bad.
Radiator
valvecover and upper gasket leaks--these cars leak like drunks salors.
Steering Column electrical problems--shorts
Brake light sockets goun bad
Headliners falling
rust on rear floor--seen a bunch of that
egr failure causeing check engine light
fuel pump failure
These are the most common things found amongst many cars we repaired.



have fun gang

I'm no math genius by any means, but how did you turn a profit, and only make 90% of your cash back?

Those problems will happen to any car if you abuse it and don't maintain it. I have an 00' V6 and haven't experienced any of those problems. My brother has a 95' V6 and it has never had any of those problems either.

Since when are Toyota's crap? Granted I've never owned one but I've heard that from even the most diehard American car guys that when it comes to reliability Toyota is among the best.

Can`t say much for that car---or the few that passed thru here .
As far as what I drive ---whatever I want---many cars and truck onmy lot to choose from.
I like the corvette,the nissan 350`s rock,
The charger with the hemi kills in a straight line----
Mustangs rip---I know that will get cheers
Love the evo----I`ll roast anyone in that on the track--It`s just badass.[sm=badbadbad.gif]


Got a 6" lifted suburban350/vortec----only good on the street
the Jeep takes the prize off road


The firechickens/camaro 6 pins--chick cars that fall apart--we stopped takin them.

trans am/z28---fast ,sporty sound good---cheap construction
don`t beat them---sell before 100,000 miles to some poor schmuck.

Im guessing you own a dealership? Or atleast mommy and/or daddy does depending on your age?

Your car will last if you treat it right... If you neglect it will turn to ****... my car for example was neglected by the previous owner and now im feelin the hurt.. but id rather spend a couple grand on it now and get it outta the way... honestly i got my car for 4500, a couple thousand worth of repairs to make it just cherry i will still have paid less than i would have buying the car off the lot.
