2000 Chevrolet Camaro Z28
This car was basically my answer to my NEED FOR SPEED. That's right. I was told my entire life that I can't have a sports car because the insurance will be too high. Well guess what! I turned 25! Low and behold, a sport car became a realistic option. What better way to go than the fastest car per dollar available in the U.S. market! That's right, Chevrolet's "305" horsepower LS1 5.7L V8 really made closer to 345 horsepower factory stock. As you can see from the dyno sheet below, with the mere addition of a cat-back exhaust and an intake filter swap, the car made 310 rear-wheel horsepower and ran 13.4's with some mediocre driving and a heavy driver! I enjoyed this car a lot. Me and my best friend drove it on a 3,300 mile road trip, and it was great. I'll be talking about this one for the rest of my life, no question.
