What happened to that camaro your dad has? They are pretty reliable cars. I put 50k on mine and the only major problem I had was the water pump started leaking. I am now at 125k miles, it runs great. If you do get one try to stay away from 93's and go with 94+. The 93's are speed density and have a chip in the pcm that you have to change out if you want it tuned, the 94+ you can just dl the tune directly from your computer to the car. Like stated before how much do you want to spend, what do you want out of the car? If you decide to get a camaro and have any questions feel free to im me @ xcmtnbiker82.

we really should kill u for saying camaro on this web site hahahhah, jk, me personaly i would have to say maybe a v6 stratus, like mid 90s -or even the 2.4s, then u could always put the srt turbo on one at a later date.........just an idea, i have always liked the mid 90s stratus, avenger look, but like stated above, i dont have the same tastes as everyone else [8D]

sell my car this summer wat do u guys suggest i get it can be v8 v6 or 4 cylinder i want something kinda fast and not to expensive i really want a camaro or an 80s import turbo.
How much money do you have and/or how much of a monthly payment do you want?
How old are you?
How much insurance can you afford each month?
Are you concerned about gas costs?
Do you plan on modding it or keeping it mostly stock?
Are you in high school, college, or working a full time job?
How long do you plan on keeping this new car?
What are you going to be using it for (i.e. daily driver, school/work etc..?

Answer those questions and i'll tell you what kind of car to buy...

im 17 and i had a 89 shelby daytona on 15 psi it would freakin run. any older like late 80s 2.5 or 2.2 turbo dodges will scream for cheap. ex-(shadow, daytona, spirit r/t, lebaron, laser, charger, omni, lancer) and if u can find a v6 5 speed 2 door shadow they will run too. good luck!

+1. I was looking at several 99-00 Civic Si's when I was first shopping around for a car. I almost purchased a Si instead of my R/T, but the price wasnt right...R/T - $9k...Si - $12k...you do the math.

By a couple years how long do you mean? I'm just saying, your parents wont be paying for your car insurance forever, and you need to plan for the future if you plan on keeping your new car into college. Trust me, you do not want a high car payment/high insurance payment through college...it just makes things more complicated. Buy something now that will last, something you can mod here and there and make moderately fast, and something that will be reliable and cheap to insure because of your age. The best advice i can give is to plan for the future, not for today...ok thats all the grown up advice I have for the moment .

What is your budget!!!! I'll answer from there but the only civics that I would think about buying is the two latest gen. SRT-4 = good and fun. Chevy = bad.
