      Re: 99 Camaro V6 RS

      I would keep the car and do all the maintainance as described by the other members who have posted. After you complete all of that and do not have any serious problems with the car for at least six months I would say you are a winner. Do keep your Civic for the time being just to make sure you aren't stranded should any major problems arise with the Camaro.

        Re: 99 Camaro V6 RS

        yeah im still waiting on that guy around here to leave his lambo sitting for a repo.. they not come get it, and I get a free lambo... lol

        Good job, never hurts to be curious.. Free Camaro, things are running fine.. bank just gave it to ya.. Now thats a bank you can trust... Tho I trust no banks, but I have one...

        It looks like a clean car man. Miles arnt bad on it, water really never hurt anything.. if it was flooded and sat, the harness should be dry.

        I would just flush the tranny, engine out, seafoam it I guess from what they said, and just put a nice grade of fuel in. replace what you said you were going to, better to be safe than sorry ya know...

        Good find, Congrats and welcome to the boards. Keep us posted!

          That's cute, responding to my specific and precise statement, with an unbelievably broad and general one. "Automotive industry" includes everyone from 16 year old grease monkeys at a Jiffy Lube, going up. So, I say again,

            i just did, and the answer was yes to both

            they dont get as much as a discount as you think, and they dont mind buying used cars because they know what to look for

                I have a friend who is a head tech at a GM dealership...got a new corvette with a window sticker of $55,035 for $31,332.

                and yeah they'll buy used cars but most of the techs i know drive new ones at least if they work for a dealership.

                and smoke, thanks, i like being cute


                post your doorjam pic so we can have a look at the RPOs

                  Re: 99 Camaro V6

                  If the car runs good after a good tune up (filters, hoses, fluids, etc), i'm sure you could fetch a good deal more than 1,500 for it.. Its a t-top with only 60k.

                            No need. there's nothing particularly remarkable about the car...3.08 gears, open differential, RS clone....
