Re: Camero advice and insight
*passes wright a roll*
Yeah welcome everyone. If im not mistaken the ls1 and the 3.8 get about the same gasmileage dont they? All depends on how you drive the car. More pedal means more gas no matter what the motor. But if you do get a 6 then get the 3.8. Nice cars and there isnt anything wrong with them. V-8's have come a long way since the days of being carburated gas hogs. Efficiency is key.

Re: Camero advice and insight
ls1's and 3.8's are pretty close on gas mileage stock...i doubt finding an ls1 in the 4k price range, with my 3.8l when i had 3.08's on the highway i could get 27+ mpg in an automatic. after some modding and 3.42's i still get 23-24 mpg which is pretty good i think

Re: Camero advice and insight
u could definitely get a pretty good 3rd gen v8 for under 4k. and feel the pull, i would hav, but i can fit in those small ass driver seats. Im stuck 6 bangin. also on the 3.4s, the fuel pump goes at around 130k. both of my 3.4s did that.

Re: Camero advice and insight
I would go for the 3.8 if i were in your position. Some 96 and 97's had then and all 6 cyclinder camaros after 98 had them. Like everybody said already the 3.8 is bullet proof, te car will rot away before the engine dies(at least thats what i experianced in my 89 olds 88).

Re: Camero advice and insight
Thanks everyone,
I am glad that this forum exsists to help people. Too many confusing things out there about cars and this forum helps people see through the fog. I'm on the hunt and will let you all know how it goes and if I have any other questions I feel I can ask them here and not feel foolish and for that I thank you all. Till then! Joe |

Re: Camero advice and insight
Hey Joe,
I bought my 95 Camaro (V6) last year... Paid about 4k, and have, until recently had minimal problems with it. I love everything about it and the worst part about her not working right now, aside from the monetary issues, and the dealership bastards, is not being able to drive it. I don't know much about cars myself so I wont pretend to, but I love to learn as I go. My only issues so far have been the altenator, which went the day before the insurance went out for the winter (oh such a long winter!) a repeating headlight issue, and this VATS thing. Parts are a bit more expensive then I was used to. But all my previous cars were beaters while I saved up for my Camaro. With everything said, test drive one, fall in love... AND BUY IT!! |
