Tell me what u think?
This is my 86 berlinetta camaro. This is my first car and I would like to buy a newer 90-92 iroc/rs (not in my budget right now and I would NOT do it the same style).
Reason's customizing it like this:
This has a V6 - it's got no guts...no need to make any performance mods.
Interior was shot...velvet is easier to install than tweed.
Car looked to plain without some chrome and I got the rims used for a good deal.
My friend painted the car and I helped with the body work.
no hydraulics...stock suspension...photoshopd drop.
It's got 240,000 KM's on it, it's probably gonna die soon.

Hmm... dosen't look too bad in pictures really. Not my style but hey... whatever. I'm definately not a fan of chrome over the fenders, little too ghetto for me, but like i said, you car, whatever you want. I'm glad to hear that drop is photoshopped! Definately kinda the um, south of the border look there. If you're thinking its gonna die on you, how come you painted it?

Not my taste, especially the wheel well chrome and velvet, but hey, it looks like you did a quality job on it. Enjoy it, and remember, you can always sell your car and use the money to buy an IROC or whatever if that is what you want.

I like the solid color choice. The two tone and 80's graphics are definatly not "cool" but as strange as this might sound, it doesn't look half bad.
Imagine seeing that car the for the first time and back in 1984 looks pretty cool for a daily driver.
The stainless trim is definatly not going to win any shows but for some people that can't afford new paint, it's a good way to cover up rust. I just wish they would paint them to match body color
.
You remind me of myself just a few years ago. I bought my 86 SC 5 years ago (I was 15), drove around in a 91 v6 firebird for a while (friends mom's car, she was in Israel for a year), then I got my car on the road and it was a lot of fun for a "first car." It was a piece but it had a v8 and my friends and I had a blast playing with it, stereo system, exhaust, all that fun stuff in high school.
Then senior year I noticed something...no power compared to my friends and their SHO's, so I bought a 91 RS and 3 years later it's what you see in my sig. Of course I worked 2 and sometimes 3 jobs during the summer and 20 hours a week during my junior and senior year...so I could afford it. Now I'm broke again (gotta love tuition bills) and so it's time to just have fun with the car again.
Good luck with whatever you do to the car, just don't junk it, it makes a great car for a high school kid!

To the dud with the red camaro, I , well in my opion you need to raise it just a little, needs some groundeffects, tint the windows,
change the wheels, add a spoiler, etc.... Hey, that is just my opion. !!!!!! Camaros CAN be great cars when you spend all your money on them. I also like the set up in the trunk, it looks almost like mine. I am not intetionaly downing your car, but you did ask for opions. I have tried to attach a photo of my car.

Looks like crap to me, but hey if you like it whatever. The chrome fenders I never do like and it's just a tad too low. How do you go over speed bumps.

ww, your car is just too high!! Both of u are the extremes.
1 too high, 1 too low. And Camaros ARE great cars, even before people go messing with them.
1 too high, 1 too low. And Camaros ARE great cars, even before people go messing with them. Let me explain this to those who do not understand the words AIRSHOCKS!!!!!! They are great little add on you can adjust them to any hight ,they are not always up, at least it is not draging the ground, and it rides better than it did before the airshocks. If you do not like it do not look !!!!

Its called an opinion, like the numerous amount u gave to redberlinetta86.
It looks like u are going off-road or something?!

No!! I was just goofing, everybody ask the same ? why is it so high looks like they could figure it out on their own, not all cars sit that high unless they have added airshocks. The airshocks are for the future 50s .Every one is intitled to theit opion, and how they think their car should look , this is just the start for mine. Sorry if I sounded harsh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Some of u guys didn't read clearly...It rides on stock height...PHTOPSHOPED DROP!...I got caught up in the lowrider phase about 5yrs ago and I'm getting to old to drive it...like I said, it's time to move on to a newer SUV. I'll always drive a custom car -> Blazer/Jimmy bagged, shaved, and rollin on 18's or 20's is the next project when the camaro stops runnin'
