1999 Camaro

Owned a 1998 V6, virtually identical minus the gas tanks and lack of TC.

>ECM might have a bad solder that will fuck with your radio and windows. That's a bitch to get out, but pretty straightforward to fix on your own.

All said, not a bad first car. It'll spin the tires a bit if you turn the TC off It has its quirks, but I quite liked mine.

never late in a 3.8

I had an 00 with ttops and the 5 speed. I drive the piss out of it, literally stoplight racing sometimes. Not the fastest car. Heavy, but predictable steering.

Upgraded to an 02 SS and sold it, now I rarely have opportunity to drive as hard lol.

My ttops have never leaked, cracked dash and the 3.8 water pump are common faults tho. Water pump is easy enough replacement tho.

I hate how much I love the look of these and the pontiac counterpart. Is something wrong with me or is it finally time they become cool again, at least ironically?

Fast enough to have fun and you get the Camaro nameplate.

Cracked dash is very common

I had a 2000 z28. It was my daily for a few years
Common problems I had that others listed
-cracked dash
-dying windows
-bcm solder issues
-4l60e not the best
But I loved that car and put time/money into it. Resoldered bcm (kind of a pain but not hard to pull)
Windows I dealt with
Bought used dash, easy to replace
4l60e took a shit, installed 3600 stall and shift kit. Loved it after.
Did suspension. Loved how responsive/tight it felt, was very stiff though.
Did bolt ons, better sound/feel.
The 3800 is a decent motor for the time and while not much by today's standards, it's not bad
