Import Vs. America Muscle, Kill Story...bye bye bye IROC! Options

[Guest_DJMC_Celica_*]

So my buddy has a 1987 Chevy Camaro Z28 IROC. And all he does is brag how fast it is, so he has 18"Chrome Rims, which are even heavier than my 19s because his tire base is wider. So he was talking mad **** about how he wanted to race me. We hit the Interstate 90. And stopped and took off, i must admit he had me on the first 5 secs but i punched it into 3rd and smoked him! i was almost a car and half length ahead before i shifted in to 4th. When he was shifting his car sounded like it was going to fall apart. Not to mention i know this kid is a good driver. But was it nice to say..."A Ricer beats A.M."

Not true with all the GM's ive owned and the rest of my family members... All needed rebuilds at around 100k miles, trannys crapping out, whole freaking car rattling apart, basically everything has been replaced at least once during its whole 100k lifespan. They did look nice on the outside but they are cheaply made. I have seen some last a long time but they are totally falling apart and no telling how many rebuilds they have been through. Toyota Quality far exceeds anything by GM. My family has owned mostly GM's up until the last few years...WE will never go back..

BTW..i had a 93 camaro...headgasket blew around 100k, fuel pump, 3 alternators, driveshaft bearing went bad so had to make a whole new onepeice shaft, freeze plug leaked and had to drop the whole tranny to change that peice of crap 1$ cap. Bose crap radio been refurbished a couple times and still didnt work..Taillights went out all the time, grounding problems with turnsignals, windows rattled like crazy along with the rest of the interior.
