1999 Chevrolet Camaro Reviews, Pricing & Specs

The quality of my camaro is amazing, currently it has almost 160k miles on it and it hasn given me any problems (but thats what you get with a chevy) it might have 3.8, 6 cyl but it has power, the handling is great, and has no problems comming to a stop. I love the way the camaro were designed both the interior and exterior look great, not so much room in the back, but if you buy one of these your shouldnt care too much about room. This car is alot of fun to drive and i would definatly buy another and suggest that you get one youself!Oct 17, 2009

I love this car, even though I'm going to sell it. Performance leaves a little to be desired. My camaro is stock. I hear you can improve the 3.8 V6 pretty easily, but I've never really had the money. The passenger window is really slow to roll up and down, I think it might be on its last legs again. Great looking car, excellent paint, leather interior (seats arn't terribly comfortable, but they are fine for a few hours) Never had any problems mechanically. MAF sensor went bad, and window went bad, both where cheap to fix however. Overall I love this car. Love RWD, except in snow. Love the looks I get while driving it. I will really miss it when its gone.Feb 11, 2009

Performance is good, great breaking and handling, ok acceleration. (v-6) Appearance is awesome... obviously. Fun factor is through the roof... BUT this car is in the shop every 2-3 weeks. It gets horrible gas mileage. I call it the beautiful turd, because it's great to look at, fun to drive (when it's working) but it's a piece of dung. Only get one if you're a mechanic. Sep 11, 2008

It's a Camaro. I mean, what more can I say ;). Seriously, it has a V6, that feels like a V8, that gets nearly 30 MPG on the highway. It has a KILLER sound system, that will literally shake the windows in the houses you go by (not that I'd ever have the sound that loud, of course, LOL), and it's a t-top model, so you can have an almost convertible on a pretty day, and a hardtop coupe on rainy ones. I seriously doubt I'd trade it for anything, because it is perfect for the commuting college student. Oh, did I mention that it is super reliable. Aug 21, 2008

This is my beater car to save my Impala from winter and parking lots. The Steering has a quick ratio and a nice heavy feel. Yet grip is terrible with way too much understeer. Some of this is due to the crappy tires I bought it with (Situmoto, more like cheap death wish) so the BF Goodrichs or Bridgestones should solve some of the problem, and other mods are on the way. It very slow in a straight line too, but at least I have been able to get 28+ mpg if I try for mileage.Jul 17, 2008

I absolutely love this car, Fully tuned skylines aren't fair matches with this thing. With some very simple cheap engine mods, boosting the car to over 400 horse, it is almost unbeatable, and with a supercharger... well I won't go there. I think the car could use a body kit, but other than that, a custom painted SS hood looks great no matter how you paint it. Gets 35mpg on highway, better than ford fusion (economy car) Could lay rubber forever... bigger tires are needed if you want some good traction, but even then, there's plenty of power to break 'em loose.Jun 26, 2008

The 1999 Camaro that I own has seen better days. Not because it has been treated horribly, but because the build quality is in my eyes substandard. Trim pieces molded in plastic are cracking and breaking, the leather is cracking, and the paint is cracking. The car is cracking all over. Not to say that the drivetrain is hearty and loves being pushed, but performance is slightly above standard for its generation. With a basic FlowMaster Exhaust system, I can still beat brand new V-6 Mustangs, quite impressive. That is in a straight line. On a track, I don't know how safe I would feel with the amount of body roll I experience in my Camaro to take it around a track going anything over 40mph. Jun 24, 2008

For being a V6 it had pretty good performance. I love the way the car looks. Only major problem I've had is misfires, but that's partly due to the fact that the owner before me didn't take very good care of the car. Other little things are it's kind of hard to get into if you are tall, the back seats are basically useless, and very limited trunk space. But then again usually that goes with all sports cars.Apr 27, 2008

I chose my Camaro SS because I don't see tat many on the road, and I've never seen another silver one. I only drive my car about once a week in the summer time to keep the miles extremely low. I've had it going on two years and put about 9,000 miles on it. I love that it can take on cars that cost 5X as much, and how good (loud) it sounds at about 73mph.Jan 26, 2008

I used to be a non stop third gen die hard.... then I bought my 99 z-28 with t he sport appearance package in a six speed. I have had several other camaros including a 500 horse 73 type LT. None has been more fun, or had better handling. This car is amazing. At first I wanted to build a 70, but due to lack of time for the project, I decided to geta newer one, at first looking for 96-97 lt1 ss car. I found my 99, and for the price I couldnt pass it up. All I can say is buy on eof these cars with the LS1. You will not regret it. More power in the hole shot, and then the ability on the highway is just intense. 110 MPH and the car throws you back in the seat and just begs for more throttle. And give it you must. Jan 27, 2007
