Lately i´ve been thinking about getting between a 1999-2002 Chevrolet Camaro Z28.
I just love the sound of an LS1 equipped (the base Corvette Engine), $23,830 dollar Detroit-iron monster of American Muscle. I just think about the 310 horsepower, 340 lb-ft torque and it sends shivers down my spine, then i go on to notice the 5.5 second 0-60 and a 13.9 second 1/4 mile, and i get weak in the knees.
I would have to find a second job to be able to afford this car, and I will only want to drive this car in the summer time. (310 horses in the snow scares me, a lot.)
The Z28s are as fast as my dream car, the WRX, but cost 1000 dollars less, base price. I just want to spank my friends Mustang GT and any other GT out there.
I´m sick of being the only car guy in my family that has this as any sort of "hobby" and being the underdog in sports car performance. I want to keep my Escort and make it as fast as a Z28 though...just to put even more hurt on the Stangs.
Any comments, suggestions, questions? I wanna know what you all think. Thanks.
