Nice car if you're just going for looks! but you'll get walked from the lights by most hatches, who'll then go and tell their mates they just beat a V8 camaro.
Go with a Z28 you'll still get good milage,looks & bragging rights

V6=200 bhp
3.8 litres
7.7 secs 60

Z28=350 bhp,345 f/bs torque
5.7 litres
5.2 secs 60

The V8 is the only option.
I wouldn't think the fuel consumption would be any different from any of the V6's or the V8.
Plus, what about the V8 ROAR !
Seriously, there are far to many hot hatches that will just rip you to bits.
V8 is the only option.

V8's are obviously ideal but dont be put off the V6's. they offer an excellent introducing into owning a camaro at a pocket friendly price.

Well no problems here, apart from having to change out driver side window motor, peace of cake & the stock 10 bolt rearends are known to be weak, ok if you're on stock power & don't use sticky tires it'll last, they also last longer with auto's but i got the M6 the destroyer of rearends. but hopefully when it breaks i'll have enough for a super strong 9inch
