Pros

This is a great car with real V8 power that delivers 20 mpg in a commuter role and 26 mpg on the highway.  I've owned it since it was new and never had to use the original warranty because nothing went wrong with the car during that time.  I've since replaced one door speaker and one window motor.  All the car has required is regular oil/filter changes (I use Mobile 1 full synthetic), fresh tires (it has very high rubber Kumhos on it now) and brakes.

Cons

All of these cars have a nasty habit of warping the front rotors in normal use.  I have replaced the front rotors twice in the past due to warping.  The car will probably need new front pads (and maybe rotors) soon (the rears were done recently), and I would recommend using cross drilled rotors for better heat dissapation.  The car has another Camaro common problem with the ICM (internal control module).  It has a crack in a solder joint on the PC board that occasionally (depending on the ambient temperature) will expand causing the radio and the power windows to fail.  I have the info on how to re-solder the joint, but it wasn't bad enough to cause me to dig the ICM out from behind the glove box to make the repair.  It usually recovers with a toggle of the power door lock switch on the driver's door.

Great 4th Gen Camaro — It is a flyer! I recently sold my 69 Corvette 427/390hp 4 speed coupe and I know this Camaro would have blown its doors off in a head-to-head drag race. It is probably the fastest and quickest car I have ever owned. I have taken it to the drag strip on three occasions just for grins and it amazed me with its performance. This basically stock car, on street tires, ran a very respectable 13.44 sec. @ 107.43 mph in the quarter mile. That with 2.73 rear gears, set up for highway cruising. Can't imagine what it would have done with 3.42s. It still runs like a big hoss. Great acceleration to get on the highway or just to put a smile on your face.

Great Car — This car is a real eyecatcher in Europe. Great performance, feels like a muscle car when I want it to. Drives comfortable. Engine is modded and body is lowered. Reliable car. Gear changes are smooth and throttle response is outstanding.

Pros

Beautiful looking car this generation of Camaro.  Sleek lines, classic build that looks fast whether driving down the road or sitting in the driveway.  Powerful under the hood (California Covert Package) yet gives nothing away at the light.  This girl can take a 5.7 Mustang for a walk with no problem.

Cons

Nothing right now.  I am the original owner and nothing has ever annoyed me enough to complain about in over 12 years.

Silver Queen Camaro — My girl is a beautiful looking car for this generation of Camaro. The 2000 is still in the outstanding sleek and classic build that makes Camaros so popular and allows them to look turbo-charged whether driving down the road or sitting in the driveway. This particular car has an understated powerful engine under the hood (California Covert Package) yet she gives nothing away at the light. No loud glass-packs, no give away that this girl can take your 5.7 Mustang for a walk with no problem.

Cons

Crappy plastic interior

Ls1>everything Else — The performance is the best bang for your buck out there. The build quality isn't terrible, its not a mercedes lol. The exterior of the car is amazing, I love the way it looks, especially with my own touch added to it. The cost of owning it is pretty low, I have never had to replace anything major, and gss mileage is pretty good at somewhere around 18 mpgs (as long as I stay out of the throttle). Its the most fun car I have ever owned

The gas mileage

Cons

The transmission and interior

55

What? — The V6 is okay, but the transmission on the car sucks. The first two gears don't shift evenly. The steering is great, but the braking is not were I want it to be. The interior is my biggest beef against the car, the stock interior is not attractive. The gas mileage is great on the highway, and the maintenance is fairly low if well maintained.

Nice Car — One of the best and nicest cars that i have owned. It has just about 90K on it, the color is navy blue metallic and ive put the chevy corvette ZR1 rims on it, slp intake, skipshift eliminator, pro 5.0 short shifter, magnaflow catback exhaust. Its a real headturner and very quick for a pretty much stock car, it rides with ease at 130mph and can go much faster.

Best Camaro I Have Owned. — My wife and I love this car.It is our attitude adjuster!We have owned it since the car was new.The car has less than 18000 miles, since it is driven only in fair weather and stored in the winter.The only change I have made is the addition of a K&N air induction.

Pros

The performance aspect of this car is amazing, along with comfort on long drives and a great sound system.

Cons

The 4l60E is just not the right transmission in these cars. Needs to be a 5 speed automatic or 6 speed manual to get the fuel economy needed.

Camaro Still The Heart Of Usa — Great all around car that needs its little tweaks from a few aftermarket parts to make the performance, brakes, hadling, and fuel economy up to date. As long as you do the scheduled maintenance when the time calls it has no problems. Appearance is good not great an aftermarket body kit does a lot depending on your choice of style. Maintenance is a little on the costly side on certain parts. Gas mileage depending on transmission is good to bad.

Great Muscle Car With Updated Comfort — Have owned 7 Camaro's so far and this is the first 4th gen car and by all means is better than any other one's I've owned. Not the fastest one but the easiest and most comfortable too drive, has plenty of guts with the LS1 and 6 speed manual. Has over 130000 miles still runs great no leaks or oil consumption.
